Post by: NUKE on February 27, 2005, 12:02:16 AM
I say Tabasco is my favorite......even taked sips of it by itself.

Louisiana hot sauce is a lot more mild, but it tastes pretty good.

As far as Tabasco goes, Chipotle is their best flavor.

For wings, it's Franks, hands down.  For anything else, Tapatio is good stuff.

Never tried the Chipotle Tabasco though, and I'm generally a fool for chipotle stuff.

This one here is a thicker hot sauce for BBQ chicken, and it's pretty darn good on steak too..

You're all wrong, Cholula is the best.
http://www.cholula.com

And chipotle? Take a perfectly good pepper and char it so that it tastes like pepper flavored charcoal.  Bleck, it's a marketing fad. Everything is chipotle now, chipotle burgers, chipotle chicken wings, chipotle astroglide..

Some of the best hot pepper sauce I had was at Keo's Thai restaurant in honolulu. That stuff was amazing - hot, sweet, full of body and very flavorful.  You really could tell the taste of the peppers used even with all that heat.   Then I had the hot Pananag Curry and it was heaven, these guys werent kidding about hot. :)

I really dont like the thin watery vinager hot sauces, the vinager just dominates the flavor.

Salsa Brava hot sauce is great stuff nice and sweet. Its just not very hot but its perfect complement with scrambled eggs for breakfast, I have it every day and go thrugh tons of the stuff.

Will have to try the chohula some more, I just had a taste of it tonight at aestaurant. Seemst tyo be a watery one like tabasco but i will give it a cahnce.

Anyway I love hot sauce, most are salt free so its the perfect flavor enhancer when you are watching your soduim intake for blood pressure levels. In fact there is evidence that capsaicin actually lowers BP by expanding your blood vellese.. So its good all around!

I just need to find some more really hot and flavorful ones because my palate is adjusting from so much of it and I'm bored with even the hottest store bought ones.  

Any suggestions?

Check this one out, a bit hotter than Salsa Brava and tabasco. Still not too hot but extreamly flavorful and much more complex flavor than those, expecally the vinager ones.

I think it's my favorite now. :)

Tabasco and Frank's are for teething babies.

I like a few different ones. Cholula is the best of the mild, flavorful sauces. It's got just the right tang along with a complex peppery sweetness.

My all time favorite is Melinda's, either XXX or XXXXReserve. There is nothing like "The Sweet Hot B*tch". She's hot, she's sweet, she makes you want more and she lets you know you're out of your league. For those who don't like the really hot stuff, there are X and XX.

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v210/Mosca/DSCF0100.jpg)

Chef Shaikh's Raging Inferno is a good tamarind sauce for meats, especially pulled pork.

Busha Browne's Pukka Peppa is very peppery (in a good way), with little other flavors. If you just want to add the peppery taste, this is the one.

Dave's Insanity has almost no flavor; he has better sauces, notably Hurtin' Habanero.

I'm not much of a fan of the Blair's Death sauces, Death and After Death; they just don't taste right to me.

Ass-Kickin' products are disappointing to me.

Bermuda Jack's Onion Sauce is very flavorful, pretty hot, and excellent on spaghetti.

Iguana Gold is mustardy, really hot, and great on rare burgers.

El Yucatero is a sauce I got in a little groceria. I use it on Tex/Mex a lot. It's very much like Cholula.

Capital Punishment is massively hot. I used to put it on pizza, but not any more. It's too hot for that. I can't think of what might complement its flavor. It's good, but I don't know what to use it on.

That's all I have in the house right now.

I use a bunch, Tabasco and that type are my salt substitute.  Siriachi is good but only for flavor.  Siriachi DOES have a chili relish that is great.  Currently, i am using a lot of orange hot sauces, habanero ones.

You people need to man up...

(http://store1.yimg.com/I/hotsaucecatalog_1831_1716802)

To put this hot sauce in perspective:

Jalapeno: 2,500 - 10k scoville units
Habenero: 80k - 300k scoville units

Dave's Insanity, Total Insanity, & even Da Bomb: Final Solution  sauce don't even come close...

Blair's 6AM Limited Edition: 10,300,000 - 16,000,000 scoville units

btw, the way to season a steak with it is to dip a toothpick in it, and lightly rub the toothpick across the steak.

That isn't really hot sauce, it is a concentrate that industrial cookers use to produce manufactured food.  I had a vial of it as a joke, but mine wasn't numbered, topped with plastic and didn't cost anything.

The secret to "hot sauce" isn't the heat, it is the flavor.

Louisiana Hot Sauce.....


Don't like it much on foods BUT.


Best thing in a pinch to shine your brass before inspection

psst... tarmac....pay attention....might help you out if you are still at the accademy.


I said this in the thread Sandy posted.......I leared this as a young Marine working in the chow hall skullery (dishwasher area)

we had to shine all the brass every shift and ran out of neverdull.  The Chief messman told me to grab some louisiana hotsauce off one of the tables.  I thought he was messin with me at first but the stuff worked better than brasso or neverdull combined.  We "aquired" some and brought it back to the barracks.  Our DI was pissed when he saw it in the GI locker.  He proceded to beat us with push ups and such till we finnally convinced him that it shines brass really well.  He then told us to "mis-appropriate" several more bottles.

I'm taking little sips of  Trappy's Red Devil Cayenne pepper sauce. It's not too band, mild and a little vinegar tasting......almost the flavor of Hooters hot wings.

tried that chicke or whatever it was, soemthing funked said was good, some bird on the lable i rmember.




for me plain 'ol tabasco. the carlic tabasco is the ultimate secret for me bloddy mary's


to all you claiming you lie the death sauce, dave's insainaty, whatever.... i say yeah right.
there is no flavor to them. pure hot, numb the mouth and make you say "yeah i ate that".


yeah i have ate pure insainaty in one hit. im not pruod, i will not do it again, it tastes like a cow shat out a chilli pepper.


give me a good flavored hot sauce you can put straght up on anything. try putting a dollop of bob's death sauce on every bite of pizza. you will taste nothing, and have nothing but bragging rights for a while,  until some drunk buddy does a straight shot of it. then you are at it again. trying to "one up" each other.

Hands down best:  Joe Perry's Boneyard Brew

(http://www.ashleyfood.com/acatalog/JP3PackWPicksmall.jpg)

http://www.ashleyfood.com/acatalog/index.html

If you like Tabasco's Chipotle sauce, you'll love this slightly hotter and far more complexly flavorful set of hot sauces.  The Chipotle sauce just taste bland after indulging in the Boneyard nectar.

Highly recommended.

I've been a fan of Tobasco since I was a kid(which was a long time ago), but have found a new sauce that's really good. It's called Iguana Deuce and it's got the best smokey taste with some kick to boot. Try it, you'll like it.

I'm a big fan of the Iguana sauces (Half Moon Bay Trading Co.)  I buy the Iguana Mean Green jalapeno sauce in the gallon jugs.  

A few years back I grew habaneros in the garden (2 twenty foot rows), then dreid the habs in a dehydrator to process into a powder (the kitchen smelled great).  This powder is all purpose, but it works great added to ketchup for fried seafood, fish, oysters, etc.

Last time I priced habs at the store, they were $7 a pound, and it takes about two pounds to make 4 ounces of powder with seeds removed.  Not sure if such a powder is available commercially, but I bet there would be a market for it.

For flavor, my favorite is Cholula.  Sure, it's not super duper hot, but it tastes great.  I've outgrown my 'I'm a bigger man then you because my hot sauce is hotter' phase.  That came shortly after sampling 'Da Bomb' (1,500,000 Scovilles).  Much like those who have witnessed an atomic explosion in person, I realized that there would be no winner to this arms race.

I now enjoy sauces for their flavors.  Cholula is a fine, non-sweet sauce with great flavor.  The ubiquitous hot sauce in the clear plastic container with the rooster on the front in white is another I've recently discovered to have good taste, especially when used as part of macaroni salad.

I make my own salsa usually give it away to my employees at Christmas.

In a 3 cup processor..

1 can of peeled tomatoes (fresh are NOT as good)
1 Habanero pepper (cut this in half or whatever if you're squeemish)
2 roasted Jalapeno peppers (just stick em in the broiler for a few minutes)
1 grip of cilantro (not sure how much, but maybe 1/4 cup?)
1-2 garlic cloves
1/4 onion
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
some oregano
some cumin

Chop and enjoy.
