Just check out heathotsauce. They're notably cheaper than pretty much every other online sauce retailer, and significantly cheaper than most brick & mortar grocers. I haven't tried their sauce-of-the-month club, but they've got a solid selection at most heat levels so unless they pack their monthly boxes with rejects, you should get a solid selection of sauces.

Bunster's Shit the Bed is a nice tasty sauce, but it's not very hot despite how they market it. Also it's pretty pricey, and you've already gotten jewed by Ed Currie's in-house brand. If you want a flavorful sauce with serious heat, check out Bigfat's 7o8 Optimus Primo, Pex Peppers Painapple, Irazu Unholy Trinity. Dawson's Heatonist #1 is interesting too if you're into szechuan peppercorn (numb pepper) profiles.

To each their own, anon. I'll agree that pepper extracts taste like burnt plastic and offer nothing but one dimensional pain, but most varieties of fresh super hot peppers actually possess a unique bouquet of flavors not found elsewhere. It's possible to showcase those flavors with other ingredients while toning down the pain.

Really been enjoying a reaper sauce I recently made with roasted garlic, lime juice, honey, cumin, carrots sautéed with brown sugar, and a cider vinegar base. Also been using pic related for its citrus-heavy profile when I cook caribbean and some latin dishes. I guess my point is that there's a lot of flavor to be found in the world of seriously hot peppers as long as you avoid extracts and meme products made solely for the burn and SHU dicksizing.
