I've drank several bottles of Tabasco for bar bets. It's not the heat, it's the vinegar that will choke you. (Hint: Drink a glass of milk afterwards to prevent unpleasant after effects.)
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.

Ahhh Tabasco...sheer nectar!

But, if you have not tried it, give Linghams Chilli Sauce a go. Malaysians swear by it!

I keep a cruet of squeezed lime juice, salt and tiny hot peppers sliced in half lengthwise (to release seeds) in my fridge.

This is my fish sauce. Lime + hot peppers = yowza.  From Bimini.

Dang, I didn't realize sriracha had such a following.  Fresh hot peppers are good -- they give a nice, bright brassy flavor; Dried chili peppers give more subdued, complex flavors. Sriracha delivers a spicy kick with a very pure and very simple chili tone to it, with no aftertaste from the vinegar (This is a big deal). The chicken excels in supporting roles.  It blends seamlessly into tomato sauces, for example.  
(though I usually add my own garlic)

tabasco, on the other hand, is its own beast, and adds its own unmistakable flavor to whatever you add it to.

Lousiana hot sauce is also great for shining brass and copper.  I learned THAT as a young Marine as well when we ran out of brasso and neverdull.  It works better than the both too.

Being born and raised in south Louisiana it's kinda amazing to see how Tabasco and Louisiana Hot Sauce has spread throughout the country. When I moved to CA I was amazed to see Tabasco on the tables of many restaurants. I'm glad two good S. LA companies are doing so well.

The squirly thing is I like Pepper Plant - California Original. Not hot but a very good flavor. :)


Btw, Crystal Hot Sauce  is another Louisiana brand (New Orleans) that is excellent and flavorful. It's also a lot cheaper than Tabasco.

I just asked my girlfriend about this (she's Malaysian), but she hates it.  She and all of her friends prefer the rooster.  She is Chinese, so I'm not sure if you meant Malay or Malaysian.

That's interesting Munkii. It's the most popular brand in Malaysia by far (Amongst Malays, Chinese and Indian Malaysians in my experience). Maggi Chilli Sauce probably comes in second.

I've never heard of Rooster...I must look it up in one of the chinese supermarkets and give it a try.

(I'm a bit of a collector of chilli sauces!)

A friend of mine brought one of those 'Super Hot Sauces' back from the States for me to try.

'Ha Ha Ha,' I said, 'What do the Americans know about Chilli Sauce?' Not being put off by the label (Picture of a man screaming) I poured a dollop on the end of my finger and ate it.

My lips went entirely numb for about 10 minutes and I can't think of the last time my mouth was in so much pain.

That picture on the label was for real. Only used it in cooking after that in small quantities.

My eyes water every timeI even think of it now. That stuff was just lethal.

Well it's clear that many people who support legalized pornography and legalized drugs also use tabasco.  Clearly tabasco is a gateway drug and must be banned.  Think of the children!!!  Save us Herr Ashkkkroft!

the Rooster is just a play on Sriracha.  Chili sauces are magnificent, I must agree.  I have approximately 40 different brands in my cabinets and refridgerator between myself and my girlfriend.  She said she never knew American's liked hot food until she met me.  I can eat spicer food than her, or anyone in her family.  I will admit I draw the line at curry, not because of the heat, but the coconut.  Curry powder is wonderful though.  Thai food is the greatest on the planet for spice and flavor.  

Upon further review of that paragraph, I have self diagnosed myself with ADD. :D

This stuff is scary.  It's 7.1 Million Scoville units hot.  To give you an idea - Tabasco is 5,000 Scovilles and a habanero pepper is 350,000 Scovilles.  I'm pretty sure this stuff would make your tongue wilt going in and your anus fall off going out.

Here's a review of this sauce from the site (LOL): "I was involved in a chili pepper eating contest and was one of the last two finalists.I was doing quite well with handleing the heat of all the raw peppers. The judges felt this was going to be a draw so they pulled out this mysterious little grey bottle. They cut the top of a green chili and added a large drop of this brown substance to the inside of the pepper.Well my apponent backed down before eating it so I won the competition. But I couldnt stop there the crowd was cheering for me to eat it so I did. I felt nothing for the first ten seconds then as soon as I walked away I felt this burn from my throat to my stomach and then the heavens blackened and lightning smacked me in the head my world was an instant inferno! I was perilized from the waist up. Blinded by the tears in my eyes and the lack of oxygen do to my throat feeling like it was being torn by razor blades.After twenty minutes or so satan himself patted me on the back and said I must go now but, (BUT)I will see you in the morning.I woke up the next day and and for the next ten hours Satan kept his promise as he started pulling miles of barbed wire out of my ass.I have never eaten anything so hot in my life or so powerful. A+++++ for creating the best hot sauce in the entire world. I am asking my whole family to pitch in and but me a bottle for xmas. - CHILI MEDIC"
