Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I love spicy food and outside of home or family members homes where I can doctor it myself, I seldom find food at restaurants that are spicy enough for me.

Well a girl at work knows this and while eating at a place she enjoys called Tijuana Flats she got me an early Christmas present. A hot sauce called Endorphin Rush.http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...rphin_rush.jpg Holy Shite Batman! This stuff is soooo hot. I tried just a very small dab on my finger to taste. The flavor at first was very good, but then the heat just jumped all over me and lingered. Whew! Haven't tried it on any food yet but am looking forward to it. Read more about it here; http://www.sweatnspice.com/proddetail.php?prod=32

One of my favorites is Crystal Louisiana Hot Sauce. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._Hot_Sauce.jpg
Not overly hot but very flavorful and I just keep adding more of it if I want more heat.

Would be interested in hearing what some of the favorites of my fellow inmates are so I could see about trying some in the future.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I like Frostbite...the white sauce...from cajohns...

and TOTAL heat is Pure Cap...heheheh just a touch in a big pot of chili!

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I guess I could say I 'collect" hot sauces -- I've got something like 30 different ones in a kitchen cabinet.
Call me a traditionalist -- for the really hot stuff, I like Dave's Insanity and Blair's various "death" sauces best. Very hot, but still some flavor. I have lots of others that are very good, but i always seem to reach for Dave's or Blair's first.
A good runner up, not quite as hot, but still enough to be dangerous to the unsuspecting, is "Orange Crush" -- very good flavor, high heat.
I also like "Magma" which is a very thin clear sauce with habanero extract -- you shake it up to mix and the extract slowly gathers together like a lava lamp. It's especially good on pulled pork sandwiches!
For "everyday" mild hot sauces (when cooking for guests, for example) Cholula, Tabasco and Franks are good. Also Trader Joe's has a very flavorful, not too hot jalepeno-based sauce.

I have a bottle of Pure Cap, but I'm scared silly to even open it.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I'm simple...Louisiana hot sauce off the shelf at any Meijer/Wal Mart or Franks Red Hot Original(the Buffalo is good as well with chicken).

To me, anything that is so hot you can't taste what you're eating is plain dumb. ;)

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Asian Sriracha :tu

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I'm a big fan of Mad Dog and Tapatio!

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Paging Ron!

My favorite currently is Blair's After-Death Sauce. I like it on eggs in the morning and in pepping up salsa.

Damn good stuff!

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

for some good heat with flavor, go with "capital punishment" (so good on a slice of pizza).

you want something that will make you cry, go for "vicious viper".

now we know blairs makes the hottest but that shite aint even edible! ha ha

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

The Beef Jerky Unlimited I stop at in Michigan offers some crazy hot sauces, but I am not much of a hot guy myself.

http://www.beefjerkyunlimited.com/site/index.php then click "Hot Sauces" and sort by "Hotness" 1 million scovilles comes to the top :fl

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Franks is my favorite milder one. I also really like Cholula and Sriacha as well.

I can handle retarded heat, but just haven't really ever gotten into the various sauces.

I love grilled serrano's, I've had a few of those totally F my world up.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

i am a huge hot sauce junky, i love them all, specially sambal

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

That's my go to sauce! I call it Chinese ketchup.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I third the motion for Sriracha.:tu

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I have two that I use all the time... good old Tabasco and Trinidad Extra Hot.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Sriracha is a great sauce but its more for hot dogs instead of ketchups or stews or sometihng. And I prefer the sriracha with the garlic and chili flakes over the squeeze tube paste one. It's also got too much sweetness which is great on hot dogs like ketchup, but wouldn't use it on plain old meat. Don't get me wrong, it has great flavor, but it isn't hot enough. YOu like really hot Asian sauces with hella flavor?

try this bad boy http://ninecooks.typepad.com/photos/...3/sambal_2.jpg

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

If you like it hot, there's nothing like Dave's Insanity Sauce...it comes in a coffin if that's any indication.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Wow!
that is one of my favorites too!
I did not know the name as the only place I see it is the "Greek" sandwich shop by me..:cb

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I have a bottle of daves, the roasted garlic one, its good, but sambal is hotter/better imo

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

A few that come to mind that I enjoy:

Widow - Best sauce to start on another slope (In my opinion)
Mad Dog 357 - Sweet kicker, one of the hottest made out of peppers and not extract (great line!!)
CaJohn's-Has a great line all together
Satan's Blood - Just Peppers and Hot
Blair's Death Line - Another awesome line
Daves Insanity - Another good starter
Z - Worth trying for the price
Krakatoa - Another good for the price
Hot Sauce Harry's - I have the entire NFL collection (34 bottles all unopen!)
Da Bomb's - Great line - Final Answer is Hot!
Acid Rain - A whole lot of flavor in this line, highly recommended!!
Spontaneous Combustion - Even comes in powder form
Vicious Viper - This will bite you
Habanero 750 - no longer made :(
Cottonmouth Kiss - Very limited
Ring of Fire - One of my favorite salsa's

Blair's Reserve line - Become really stupid and try something like the 16 million, either sauce or crystals. you will hate yourself for the rest of your life.

I have so much hot sauce it is just retarded. The entire bottom of my fridge is full, I have a shelf full, and a cabinet bursting at the walls full of autographed sauces from my favorite blenders and are collectors items. So I have a bit of a habit here. AND, my wife tolerates it!!

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Since much of my family is in TX, Cholula Hot Sauce is my stand by.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

This is great stuff! I learned the hard way to take it easy with it...it's kinda like intestinal Draino. :D

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

HAhA it's true, not really an ideal sauce to use as a dip or pour (even tho i do - OUCH) but fantastic for kicking up soups and stews and chilis and the like :D

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

This with soy sauce and tabasco sauce makes great Dim Sum dipping sauce :tu

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Bao, are these two chili sauces available in a place like DeMoulas or do I need to go to one of the Asian grocers?

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I'm a big fan of sauces and dipping, but I only use the sauces they give me with dimsum, the dumplings that don't come with them are so flavorful and tasty I don't want to change them. Just my 2 cents

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

asian market or Demoulas that is near a large asian population.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Good point but honestly, this is the best dim sum sauce combination ever! :tu

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Well, i'll try it if i buy some dimsum and steam it myself, but not at the restaurant

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Even more selection at Super 88's

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

A lot of supermarkets seem to have dropped it. I used to be able to get it at Shaws, Hannaford, Market Basket, etc. Now none carry it at all, don't know why. I have to go to Asian markets. Which is OK, since I go there occasionally for ingredients anyway.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I have only ever used Tabasco or Franks red hot, but I may have to try a few suggested in this thread. :tu

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I'm not into the super hot sauces so I stick with some of the more traditional ones in Louisiana.

Tabasco (one of the McIlhennys I think was a general in the Marines during WW2)
Crystal. Good but not Tabasco.
Trappey's Bull Brand Hot Sauce. What I'm currently using.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I have three different ones I'm using at this time, depending on the mood and food. LA Victoria Salsa Brava (hot, so they say), Louisiana Gold Pepper Sauce (tasty) and then something I picked up in Jamaica, Busha Browne's Pukka Hot Pepper Sauce (rather wicked).


Attachment 1044

Here is the write up on this stuff -

"Busha Browne's Pukka Hot Pepper Sauce, not for the faint hearted, is the ultimate sauce for the devotee of wickedly hot food. Made from fragrant fresh Jamaican Scotch Bonnet peppers, this sauce has stamina and an outstanding flavour."

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

I have a friend in NC play drop shipper for a sauce I get out of VA
It is Virginia Gentleman 90 Bourbon Chipotle Hot Sauce
their web site is http://www.ashmanco.com/
I have it shipped to NC and buddy ships to me....
I would love it if they ever are able to ship up here or if they get a distributor in Canada.... something about our silly labling laws and the use of Bourbon in the sauce....:rolleyes:

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

The Source is what I take to parties to challenge the manhood of my friends.

Usually a good time is had by all....observers.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Tabasco - only for pizza, but rarely used
Valentina - great in beer
Búfalo - great on taquitos and even greater on roasted corn w/ mayo and Parmesan
Chalula - best in sopa de fideo

I'd rather just eat jalepeños with the meal instead of using sauces. I also make my own salsa.

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Gets my vote, i love that stuff!

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

El Yucateco...a pure habanero based sauce. Terrific flavor...and will put hair on your chest. :)

Re: Favorite Hot Sauces
 

Thanks for the info. Guess I'll have to concoct my own "Special Ingredients" to attempt this. :r
