Huy Fong - Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce
 
I had this recently on some pizza, I know not traditional, but it was good stuff.. Looking to try some more tasty sauces people use on pizza.. Does anyone else like this stuff on pizza or like other hot sauces? Need some recommendations...

The best hot sauce out there IMHO. I put it on everything. Pretty sure food exists as a vessel to get Sriracha into my belly.

X3. Tastes so much better than Tabasco Sauce.

I've never had Tapatio, but I want to see if I can find some now.

Growing up in Southern California it was on every table in restaurants.

I actually really enjoy the green tobasco, not hot but good flavor. I love hot sauce on fried eggs!

Just googled it and I recognize it, just never know what it was called. All the chinese restaurants have it on their tables.

I love hot sauce on eggs too. I used to put Tabasco Sauce on my eggs, until a wise man introduced me to Sriacha. Never looked back.

Probably on half the restaurants tables here regardless of what type of food they serve.

That's nice, here it is pretty much only tobasco everywhere.
People here don't know what good food is though.

LOVE Sriracha., and use it on everything. Pizza, turkey, eggs, hell even on biscuits and gravy. I also use it as an ingredient when I am doctoring up BBQ sauce, and as an addition to chili. I keep a bottle at home, and a bottle at work. Now I'll have to try this tapatio sauce too.

I lived with the marketing rep for tobasco for 3 years and had all the free hot sauce I could eat and still never used that stuff. It's okay if it's all you have, but so many better.

The Tapatio stuff is good. I've only tried it in Mexican restaurants, never had it in my fridge. The issue that I see with it is that it is in a small bottle and does not have as much kick as the rooster sauce, so I think that I would go through it very quickly.

I use the Sriracha sauce most often but have a jug of Tapatio in the fridge too. I usually put it on Mexican food while I put Sriracha on everything.

They sell big bottles of Tapatio at Cub Foods near me and it is super cheap -- I think a 32-oz bottle was around $5!

Good to know they make a large size. I have a quart of Valentina muy picante in fridge right now that I'm working on. It is pretty similar in flavor and kick to the tapatio. I usually hit Sam's for groceries, but there's a Cub nearby that I may pay a visit to in the near future.

Sometimes I'm not in the mood for "real spicy" so it may be a nice addition for me then!

I like Tabasco because it is unique. I like Texas Pete cause it is salty. I pass the Sriracha everyday at
El Supermercado de Winchester. Might need to pick one up, but I use so little hot sauce now. I used
to think it was great, but the old recturoo no likee no mo. A$$ pain is the one kind of pain I just won't
incur. Nachos without Jalapenos seems like a travesty, but again, just ain't goin' there anymore.

The chunky jar version with garlic is really good too.

Ok, I had it.

Better kick than I thought it would have....BIG plus!

Great flavor....awesome.

3 big thumbs up! Thanks for the recommendation, Nate and everyone! Glad I bought the big bottle!

:tu :tu :tu

One question...does it need to be refrigerated?

Yep. After opening.
Just like ketchup, bbq sauce, etc.

Thanks, needed to know that before bedtime, Peter! :lr

I figured since many hot sauces don't require it, this might not either. Glad I asked.

Disagree. Hot sauce does not need refrigeration.

I looked on Google at a few sites, and they seem to agree that it does not need refrigeration because of the preservatives.

You may be right but I refrigerate it anyway.

I never refrigerate ketchup. Stays in the pantry. Just an FYI, its safe to leave out. At least, Hunt's and Heinz are okay. I can't speak for all of the ones of which I haven't read the labels.

Yup. It's a preservative filled world. I still refrigerate this as well, though.

Sounds like a different place, than the MN I grew up in, back in the 60s-70s :hm
I have the Lee Kum Kee brand of Sriracha, and like it a lot.
Also Frank's, that sh*t's good on everything :D
