(Part 3) Best hot sauce according to redditors

I'm not sure if you can get it by the quart, but you can get the 1/2 gallon or 1 gallon.

Edit: Just playing with the $ side. I pay around $3.49 for a 5 oz bottle.

The 1/2 gallon is equivalent to 12.8 of those and saves you $15.24 after shipping. The 1 gallon is equivalent to 25.6 bottles and saves you $33.41.

I'm guessing this is a lower cost option to the tiny little glass bottles they used to put in MREs (which you can get on amazon (of course)).

The simple answer is that you get used to it.

I always thought that I can enjoy however spicy sauces. Perhaps because my father used to cook spicy chillies since I was child.

The first real kick I experienced was after trying https://www.amazon.co.uk/Blairs-Ultra-Death-Sauce-Coffin/dp/B000VZSRWM/.

At first, just attempting to smell the sauce gave me goosebumps. I ruined a dinner for myself and others by putting a dab of it into chilly... However, eventually I would more or less cover a chicken wing with the sauce and utterly enjoy it.

Problem with the hot sauces is that while you do get used to the sensation (I would go as far as to say that it is addictive), what you don't get used to is the next after. Pretty much the only reason I don't use Blairs sauce anymore.

That was my first thought as well

Not crazy there are tiny bottles that barely hold a few drops.

Egg Scramble. It's the best way I've found to clear out left over veggies for breakfast. Start with the mixings that take longer to cook (onion, asparagus, zucchini, toss them in whatever sauté pan is usually on top of the stove, along with a little Pam/bacon grease/oil/whatever lube you love. Add in the quicker-cooking veggies (spinach is my fav), then crack a couple eggs on top and stir until done. Season as you choose: the best I've found so far is a little s&p, and then some Tabasco Chipotle Pepper Sauce. Toast and a banana rounds out all the food groups, and gets me ready for the day. I love breakfast!

The Korean hot pepper paste that everyone should have in their kitchen. I use the shit in so much stuff I make it would be easier to list the things I do not use it in. It is fantastic stuff.

Check out the other items for 'noose' on amazon! they are all weird as hell. Specifically this: I didn't even know this was a thing.

Ok, how about 64 oz's for $28? TABASCO Chipotle Pepper Sauce - Half Gallon (64 oz.)

these are all prime eligable:

• yellowbird
  
  
• mad dog 357 ghost
  
  
• secret aardvark
  
• marie sharp's
  
  
• lucky dog
  
  
• melinda's scorpion

I also love this stuff and have good news for you. You can, in fact, buy it by the quart (half gallon actually in this case)

I keep a bottle of the stuff at my desk at work. I have a tiny funnel and just re-use the one 5 oz bottle I have.

Don't worry...those will go great with the peppers...

really enjoying yellowbird.

I see a red hot pepper that looks suspiciously like a peniswang.

Matouk's Trinidad Scorpion

Tropical Pepper co's ghost pepper hot sauce is one of my favorites. I'm not sure if it hits their claimed 500,000 scoville units mark, but it is pretty damn hot. The naturally fruity flavor of the ghost pepper really comes through. Ingredients are: Naga Jolokia Peppers, water, salt, acetic acid, garlic pulp, xanthan gum. I really can't get enough of it. Also a heads up if you wanna try it, you might want to try looking at a local carribean of some other type of ethnic market. One grocery store near me sells them for $2 and change compared to $9 that I linked on Amazon.

I like anything from Matouk's (Trinidad):

https://www.amazon.com/Matouks-Trinidad-Scorpion-Pepper-Sauce/dp/B00CEH8DHE/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_325_bs_t_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=ZZPBP5VH466D3Q06AH9D

I would suggest bringing your own Tabasco or Sriracha.

Edit: links are hard

This will make a world of difference. Five calories won't kill you.

See if you can find El Yucateco black. It's not super spicy (probably a little milder than the bottle you have), but it's one of the best hot sauces I've tried. So smoky.

My pleasure! Another side note: since my method involves heating the fruit (brings out the sweetness and flavor), that generally kills any healthy bacteria on or in the fruit. The heated fruit would still probably ferment on its own regardless, but that's why it's important to combine with the fermented peppers and/or "used" brine. You want the healthy bacteria that you've already harvested to take hold of the ferment before any unhealthy strains do.

Actually, picked it up from Amazon. The coffee is some cuban thing that Nespresso is doing right now.

Not obnoxiously spicy, but gives a solid kick with that great habanero flavor.

They used to put little bottles of Tobasco in MREs for that reason.

They do. It's just out of stock.

Lottie's Yellow.

This stuff is the goods. It's hot, but it's also flavorful.

El Yucateco Black is a runner up.

Tropical Pepper Co Ghost Pepper is one of my favorites and a local bar that I frequent actually uses it in their "scorching" wing sauce. Has some real solid heat and a really bright, almost fruity, flavor. They take their standard buffalo sauce, made with Frank's, and dope it with the ghost pepper to bring the heat up. The sauce carries a little bit of the ghost pepper flavor but still tastes like a classic buffalo sauce for the most part.

I linked Amazon (not affiliated) but I've seen it at pretty much every grocery chain around me in NC. It's generally $3-$4 in store.

Here are some of our favorites that we have URLs for:

Fried chicken. Seriously the best fried chicken I've ever had.

Buffalo Mac and Cheese

This marinade we put on steak and chicken for burritos, fajitas, tacos

Hot and Spicy Chicken. We add extra stir fry sauce and toss in lo mein before serving.

Enchiladas

I also make my own buffalo sauce from Franks, butter, worcestershire sauce, white vinegar, cayenne, red pepper flakes, and tropical pepper co ghost pepper sauce

It is available in Half & Full Gallon sizes.

or just buy a really hot sauce and put a few drops in

You did say EXTREMELY spicy food!

You can also add this wonderful book which should give him something to do before trying the sauce ;)


I hope I helped and as far as what I'd like you could go with either of these two items :)

Amazon sells Nando's. It's pretty cheap and will do the job. They have the Peri Peri dry rubs too if you prefer that.

I do chicken thighs / legs on the grill to 165.

[El Yuco Black]9http://www.amazon.com/El-Yucateco-Black-Label-Habanero/dp/B00MI4ZJ0C)
Smokey, a little hot and looks good! This is by far my favorite sauce.

Sriracha

Tapatio

El Yucateca

Pain Is Good, Louisiana Style Link


Hot Ones Hot Ones Link

Rogue Moruga Orange Rogue

Pain 100% Bought this one a few years ago, really tastes like shit

Da Bomb Insanity Da Bomb

357 Magnum 357 Mad Dog, creeper, great flavor but after a couple minutes really creeps up on the heat....and later in the day the heat hits the butthole too

Blair's Mega Death Sauce The main site also has two other saucees that are even hotter

Dave's only seems hot until you try Blair's UltraDeath.

It's only 1.1 million scovilles in normal form (I got some special edition that's supposedly 1.3m once)... Dave's Ultimate Insanity Sauce is 250k scoville. Of course, that's really a sauce and ultradeath should be diluted in something... (pretty good in teriyaki honestly).

My favorite quasi-ridiculous sauce is melinda's naga jolokia. It's only ~130k but tastes super good and doesn't have to be diluted to be painless. If you eat two dozen hotwings that are a combo of melinda's and ultradeath (with the requisite butter), it is like napalm+drano though, and you may rue your very existance... so I'll warn you ahead of time.

Buy a bunch of stuff from Dave's. Insanity is a good bet. There's also an amazing pure Red Savina on Amazon. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000G6TNTW/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?qid=1419777790&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70). No affiliate link.

I'm a huge fan of Pirate's Lantern. It gets put on most things I eat. Full disclosure - while it's incredibly tasty, it doesn't have a ton of heat

Also, when I go to ramen shops to get a "spicy" version of different bowls, they have that scoop of that red paste. I believe it's their house version of gochujang.

Gochujang Hot Pepper Paste 1.1lbs https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004JPW9TC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_g8UYAb7K39QN3

The best standard vinegary hot sauces from Mexico, imo: Tapatio and Valentina. Try them if you get a chance. They're nothing like Tabasco (which I hate, and it's from Louisiana, US).

As for my favorite Mexican hot sauces overall, you can't go wrong with El Yucateco. They have numerous varieties, and you can't go wrong picking this up: https://www.amazon.com/El-Yucateco-Habanero-Sauces-Items/dp/B0000GHNUE/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1539815317&sr=8-2&keywords=el+yucateco

Their standard red sauce is average, but the green, Caribbean, and "Kutbil-ik de" (I think that's what it's called) are fantastic.

Yellowbird Hot Sauce Combo (9.8 Oz 3-Pack) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00X8M2GZE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_O0.gDbXXJN82Y

This stuff is amazing. The habanero gets pretty hot but they all taste fantastic. They're made from a carrot base instead of tomato.

I bought some Mina Harissa, kinda like a spicy Moroccan pepper ketchup, after they both really liked it (even Link!) on their Strange Condiments Taste Test episode. It's really good!

Why settle for insanity when you can have death? This stuff is awesome. It is SUPER hot but tastes good to me. I couldn't imagine putting a whole bottle in anything, though.

Edit: Fuck, I looked it up... original insanity sauce is 180,000 scoville and ultra death is 800,000. Maybe something is wrong with me.

These may solve your issue.

You're right, I am all of those things, and dudes are my specialty. (For the record, I do like Tabasco)

I find different dishes call for different sauces. The more sauces you try, the better of an idea you'll get for yourself what works with what. Note that the below links might not be the best prices and you can probably find a lot of these sauces at your local grocery store (unless you live in some cultural black hole like the American midwest). I spent my earlier years in southern California and developed a taste early on for Mexican cuisine, so my taste is highly reflective of that influence.

I enjoy these Mexican-style sauces:

• Cholula - mainstream, overpriced, but decent
  
  
  
• Tapatio - slightly more spicy than Cholula, a more peppery taste, for lack of a better description (on my part)
  
  
  
• Valentina - One of the cheapest sauces I've come around, just douse everything in your path with it, similar to Tapatio
  
  El Yucateco is a great brand, in my opinion. They have a lot of awesome varieties. If you go to an authentic Mexican restaurant, you'll likely find it there:
  
  
• Green Chili Habenero - Don't let the color fool you, this is a nice spicy sauce with a good flavor
  
  
• Kutbil-ik Mayan Style Habanero - This is a different flavor, but it's great and has a nice heat profile
  
  
• 4 pack Sampler - why not just try them all. $12 ain't that much, my friend ;)
  
  There are some other popular sauces which if I were to omit, people around here would be very angry:
  
  
• Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce - This stuff packs nice heat with a garlicy-chili taste. I generally save it for Chinese and Indian food, and cup-noodle. Others like to put it on pizza and everything else. It is my opinion that they just don't have the right repertoire of sauces, but hey, if they like it, more power to them.
  
  
• Frank's - You've already mentioned this, but this sauce and other similar Louisiana-style sauces are my favorite. Not very spicy, but they have a nice tangy flavor that goes great with Pizza, eggs, burgers, etc. Don't think about using this stuff on ethnic food, though. Stick to their sauces ;)
  
  There are a lot of boutique sauces out there that just pump out the Scoville units for the hell of it. A lot of them are gag gifts or novelties, but there are people out there that genuinely enjoy the rush you can get from them - you do get an adrenaline rush, it IS a high. Most of the sauces like this, however, are intended for cooking beef chili and other dishes where a small amount can be distributed through a larger portion of food.

Sriracha's good alright.

Anyone tried this? It isn't available in New Zealand yet and those Amazon bastards won't send me any!

Pirate's lantern pepper sauce - good mustard flavor, i put it on ham all the time.

https://www.amazon.com/Pirates-Lantern-Pepper-Sauce/dp/B00ZPR4P1I

Oooh have you tried Chipotle Tabasco? I don't like regular Tabasco, but I have a hard time sometimes choosing between Chipotle Tabasco and Sriracha! They're both amazinggggg

Yay!!! Happy Quarter Century!!!! My birthday was Saturday (I turned 28) and it was honestly probably the best one Ive had in a long time. My boyfriend and I went on a little road trip for a street fair in a town outside of Dayton Ohio, we ate good food, bought crazy wines and liquors and walked around listening to bands on the street and talking to vendors. It was simple and relaxing. Here's a pic I took of us while we were walking down the street. We just look so happy. I haven't taken a good picture like that in a long time.

And I'd like this Red Savina Hot Sauce. His birthday is coming up, and Im trying to collect new hot sauces for him. :)

Thanks so much for the contest!

I've been to several hot sauce tastings and I've had Da Bomb. People aren't joking when they say it's disgusting. Seriously, don't buy it, it's gross. There are much hotter sauces around that are much tastier too.

This is one of my favorites. I got it straight from the guy who makes it at the last tasting I did. Great balance between heat (not overwhelming) and flavor.

I also love this one. It's so tasty that you'll want to try a spoonful. Don't. It's a delayed scorcher and you'll have a bad time. The aged and pickled scotch bonnet and scorpion peppers in it are phenomenal.

Apparently you can get a half gallon...

Harissa paste. A little dab of this stuff can pack a spicy, tangy, smoky punch and add flavor to a whole bunch of dishes--eggs, pasta, soups, casseroles, leftovers--you name it. My favorite brands are Cava and Mina. It's easy (and more economical) to make your own too, if you have a food processor.

I like some spice n my life..and I found them here on Amzon...not cheap, but I don't mind spending a few bucks to check em out. The reviews are good...and I don't know if anyone here in the US makes a similar product.

Hope all is well over there in the UK...big cpl of days...and I imagine about half the country is not happy with the Brexit outcome...

If you like green sauces the Bronx Greenmarket sauce and Marie Sharp's Green Habanero are great options.

Any of the yellowbird condiments are also good starting points and they come in variety/sample packs, though you'll pay a premium for the sample sizes. They have a 3 pack of the 19oz bottles for about the same price as the 5 pack of tiny bottles but you get to try 2 less flavors. Cholula also makes some very good flavors, their Chili Garlic is among the best for less heat inclined people and you can also find it in most grocery stores.

Most of the non-green sauces that I use regularly are pretty spicy, I'm familiar with more mild green sauces because those are my wife's preference.

Also Butterfly Bakery of Vermont's hot sauces are on amazon, though they're cheaper on their actual website

Gotchujang(maybe spelled wrong).

It is a korean ingredient that is a fermented paste that is spicy. Interestingly there is no scoville rating for it because it's rated on a different scale of spicy. I don't know why. I like how the heat hits you and it has a wonderful earthy and sweet flavor.

I always put a teaspoon worth in teriyaki sauce to give it a little extra flavor with a cool little spicy finish. I also use it to make super spicy wings and sauce for fried chicken. This is what I buy.

So next: https://www.amazon.com/Blairs-Ultra-Death-Sauce-10001300/dp/B000VZSRWM

I get Mina Harissa from Fresh Market, its pretty decent, though I'm partial to making my own these days.

Also available at Amazon (with Prime but for slightly more)

I actually really liked that she does this. I've done the same but with this for the last six years or so. Am I missing an inside joke here? As I get older and have more income, the little comforts of life become more and more important to me. I guess it doesn't bother me if others think it's silly because it makes me happy.
