Tabasco is one of the most premium hot sauces ever made that gets memed into being bad because it's popular. Try finding anything else fermented that long or even just with only 3 ingredients.

Other than fermenting your own that's the best option for that style of sauce.

Make way for the king.

Tabasco is terrible. Literally just orange vinegar. Borderline tasteless beyond its heat which is also mediocre.
>oh but look how long it's fermented
Completely irrelevant when the end product is shit. If anything it's more pathetic that so much goes into making it and so little is gotten out of it, wasted effort the sauce.

Is the scorpion version better or more of the same?

>>20208493
Scorpion is very pepper-forward, and not vinegary-tasting
Very neutral otherwise, it's not cut with fruit or smoke or anything else
I like it and I prefer Crystal and Crystal Extra Hot to Tabasco

for me its Cholula. I like the cute little wooden meme caps

Pic related is pretty fucking good.

>>20208403
Pic rel is good as fuck. Hot and sweet. Gonna try the Carolina Reaper one next time I'm at Bussy's

Want to know how I know you're white?

>>20208724
Because only white people can handle spicy food

>>20208403
I prefer going to the mexican grocery store where they sell their home made arbol chili tomatillo salsa. Goes great on everything and has some heat. Sriracha goes on egg rolls though.

Crystal is the only answer
everything else is reddit

>Uncle Ulcer’s Maximum Alert Ghost Pepper Gastrointestinal Genocide, first tasting
>I found the bottle art to be quite clever and humorous, although I could see how one might be shocked by an anthropomorphic chili pepper in a Wehrmacht uniform shoving the nozzle of a flamethrower up a man’s rectum and blasting it with fire - perhaps they could change it to a generic uniform so as not to offend our Semitic friends.
>A local eatery is featuring the sauce on their chicken wing offerings. I took a seat at the bar and ordered a dozen, and a Gutpunch Hopfuck IPA from Motherhumper Brewing (I typically would not get something quite so hoppy to accompany the main course but I was feeling bold this eve). A family with ugh… THREE children was seated in the dining area behind me. I attempted to register my disdain by glaring menacingly over my shoulder at the parents but their attention was focused on their spawn. I politely requested the barmaid reseat me at the end of the bar.
>The plate arrives. A neon orange-reddish sauce glistens on the wings. The scent is rather pungent, it stings the nostrils. I raise my glass and nod to a young lass a few seats away. She rolls her eyes and goes back to staring at her phone. I pick up a drumstick and take a small bite. The taste was… underwhelming. I had expected something more… flavorful from Uncle Ulcer’s, but all I can sense is pure capsaicin. Fire and needles spread throughout my mouth and down my throat, swear begins to bead on my brow. I whip out my pocket square with a flourish and dab my forehead. The woman a few seats down now has her back completely turned to me.
>A few minutes have passed and I have not taken another bite. I have emptied my pint and am halfway through a glass of milk, courtesy of the barmaid. She has politely but firmly rejected my request to exchange the wings for another dozen in a different sauce. I tip my hat and bid her good night.
>Final score: I rank the sauce a 6/10.

>>20208403
I put this shit on EVERYTHING

>>20208995
nobody is reading all that bullshit

>>20208475
NTA but you're wrong and tabasco rules

>>20208423
it's not bad but it's not good. I like traditional mexican style, like tabasco and chalula personally. I'm curious what creole/cajun hot sauce is like

posted this in another thread. I love it. Zero added salt and great flavor.

because of his unique and dare I say excellent sense of humor?

>Sauce log # 769: Professor Prolapse's Seven Septillion Scoville Total Eclipse of the Shart Sauce.
>Whilst taking a weekend stroll through Newbury Comics and perusing the Funko Pop offerings, I happened upon a display most intriguing: various bawdily-labeled bottles and jars of that red ambrosia most dearest to my heart. My humor tickled and my taste buds tantalized, I simply had to - had to! - acquire one of each - no less than 6 bottles - to add to my (rather expansive) collection. I bid the cashier adieux and headed back to my apartment with exposed brick walls.
>Now, where to start with Professor Prolapse's Seven Septillion Scoville Total Eclipse of the Shart Sauce? The label is a most humorous thing, depicting what appears to be a Martian landscape with a man in lab refinery dragging his gaunt, agonized body across a vast desert, his anus having prolapsed and caught fire, trawling behind him like a smoldering red wedding train. I chuckle heartily at the daft scenario and proceed to open the bottle.
>Fragrance: Astringent leather and capsicum forward; notes of alium, smoke, electric fire, feline piss. Very mature. My mouth begins to water.
>Taste test: I dab 5 ml of the tip of my tongue and swish it about my mouth. And lo, lo, for the fields of Elysium have opened up before me, so godly is the sauce! Yet it is not taste which immediately elevates me to such a state (though the taste is very good); nay, it is the HEAT, my dear reader, the divine HEAT of Helios that surges across my tongue and through my nervous system that defines any concoction by that culinary alchemist Professor Prolapse. The name is not the utterings of a blackguard: this is not a hot sauce for the uninitiated.
>Final score: 81/100. Pairs nicely with a thrice-hopped IPA.

I just did, ya illiterate FAGGOT

>>20208475
It's not my problem you can't appreciate the subtly of the flavor from the years of oak fermentation.

>>20208403
This stuff was surprisingly good, tastes kinda like stubb's spicy BBQ sauce without the sweetness

>>20209113

>>20208475

I used to read this comic in high school, I remember sending an email to the creator telling him how much I loved his comic and he replied feeling weirded out that a 14 year old was reading a comic for adults. Oh, how times have changed.
