Janie Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I love things hot and spicy but I don't have anything in my pantry that's cutting it. I have Sriracha sauce but it's too wimpy. I need something stronger. I don't want things so hot that I have to go to the hospital though! Does anyone have good hot sauces they can recommend?

Lost In Xanadu Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 My favorites are Dave's Insanity products. Their standard Insanity sauce is nice and spicy, but I buy their Ghost Pepper sauce. Check them out 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too hot, full of FLAVOR!Note the flavor mention. Hot sauces frome different pepper sources make for a different tasting dish, and usually interchanging them will give an undesired result.. Examples: For general use or American dishes I use Crystal or Tabasco Red (Caspicum).For Mexican, Choula (Habanero?) or Tabasco Green (Jalapeno). I also use a lot of La Victoria Taco sauce (mild caspicum).For Chinese, Sirracha or chili oil (used in small amounts-very hot.)For barbecue sauces and Caribbean I use jerk seasoning (Scotch Bonnett peppers). Most of the bars that I hang out that serve wings make their basic hot wing sauce utilizing Frank's Original to start with and go from there> It does the job quite well-I get the "l put that s--t on everything." I like it hot, but not overwhelingly so-no high habenero or ghost pepper, please.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John V Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 We use Franks on everything. It helps that its available in Costco and two big bottles are under $7.00.I like Tabasco on eggs though. Its quite hot IMO.Franks and Tabasco are made from cayenne peppers.Both taste completely different. Must be due to Tabasco is fermented/aged where Franks is not. I think?

Check them outWill do! Thanks LIX!! :)I got the regular Insanity sauce and it burned my mouth and not in the good way that I like. I literally poured a huge glass of milk and had to submerge my entire mouth and tongue in there to kill the heat. I was miserable! Clearly I need something in-between Insanity sauce and Sriracha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's what I should have mentioned in my first post. I want a hot sauce I can drizzle over something. Not just to add to a dish to make the entire thing hot. Besides, I'm the only one in the house who likes things really spicy so I always need something I can add to my own food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nice and hot, but will not make food unbearable if you pour it on. The local Mexican joint has this, and I use almost half the bottle - pour a little in the salsa, some on my rice, some in my food... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
