Cholula is a little too sweet for me

I grew up with tabasco as my go too besides Louisiana Hot sauce.

I never really fancied Cholula.

the correct answer is

lousiana senpai

The 'sco beats the 'la
also
>fucking disgracive picture of tabasco
now THIS is an image of Tabasco

Crystal.

>soap vs hot sauce
Wow real tough decision there.

chipotle tabasco

alternatively habanero tabasco

Tabasco is literally the shittest hot sauce ever created
Tapatio tho....

>>7513017
Cholula is better than tapatio imo

This shit is king. It's at your local Dollar Tree. It smokes Tobasco and is fucking god tier.

Choulala is king of mexican hot sauces.

Is franks red for plebs? It's the only hot sauce I've had at home. It's pretty good

>>7512704
between these two, cholula every time.

Back the fuck up, GOAT coming through.

>>7513194
It's right up there with Sriracha as a kind of Reddit: The Hot Sauce. You should branch out and just try some other brands.

>>7512704
I think Tabasco deserves some respect. The reason that hot sauce is even a staple condiment is almost entirely due to Tabasco. That alone deserves thanks and respect.

>>7512793
Surprisingly good. It's like 49 cents at Publix and shit, always on sale. A little less salt would be perfect, but I do like how it's basically a mildly hot vinegar. Sometimes that's what I need.

>>7512704
Cholula but only if it's the chili garlic kind

>>7513269
Which brands would you recommend?

this shit right here

>>7513326
This thread has been pretty solid, surprisingly, all have been good recommendations. You said you like Frank's, so maybe a more mild sauce? I like Crystal, mainly for its pricepoint and heavy use of vinegar; you could seriously just use it on a salad it's that tart.

Valentina's I like too, mainly because of how you can buy it. It comes in a massive bottle, easy to store. And as others have noted Colula is a bit too sweet for me, but that's preference.

I will say, avoid any temptation to go fancy or buy those overpriced kits. Hot Sauce purists are the worst fucking people out there, they'd call you a pleb for not spending $30 on a 2 oz bottle.

What's more important is finding a flavor, and that can be hard. The Chipotle Tabasco, for example, I've never found in the grocery store. I can rarely find their Habanero sauce anymore. So you just got to go hunting a little bit, and you'll find something.

And if not, then Frank's might be your thing. And while I was being cheeky with the Reddit comment, what you like is what you like

this delicious mother fucker right here or green el yukateco

>>7513263
absolutelydisgusting.jpg

seriously though, not a fan of it

>>7513381
Thanks for the info, friend! I haven't experimented much with hot sauces because it gives me the worst shits. I've just recently started eating it again and fucking loving it.

>>7513263
>says goat
>uploads yellow label instead of black label
Here's your (You)

>>7513326

Is that really necessary? Go to the store and buy a few different bottles of hot sauce. Do you really need to have strangers on the internet give you advice before you take the huge step of spending a couple bucks on condiments?

>>7513263
This shit's better than Tapatio and half the price. Neither compare to Tobasco or Cholula, which are vinegar as fuck. Whole different class. Cholula is better.

>>7513451
>ugh why are you discussing food and cooking on a board dedicated to food and cooking

>>7513263
Tastes like really watered down Tapatio to me

i buy so much hot sauce.. being a hot sauce loyalist is for plebs

there's something wrong with you if you eat the same flavor everyday and not get bored

>>7513263
I only like valentina more on tacos, cholula is better on other foods.

>>7513384
I wish they sold these in liter bottles. For the amounts I'm using the small bottles are too expensive for continued use.

Maybe you plebs should start making your own hot sauces and salsas instead of buying them.

I use mostly Tabasco and Crystal these days. I went through a phase where I had and extensive collection of meme sauces but don't do that anymore. If hot sauces are that important to what you eat then your probably a shit cook or constantly eat shit. I'll add a little Tabasco to zip up soups or French fries, crystal mixes well into sauces and is good for chicken.

>>7513624
making them is good.. but variety is good too

This has been my dilemma...the hot sauce battle. So many out there, so many price points...one little bottle marked "XXX-TRAA Hot" for 6 bucks, then you come to find that salt and vinegar are the two leading tastes...

Me personally...I take Sambal Oelek as a base, mix it with crushed red peppers, diced ginger, some cayenne powder, and a squirt or two of Sriracha...if you want to tone it down, add some ketchup...the end result is a thick hot sauce without all the overpowering salt and vinegar that all these more watery, small bottles seem to champion...

>>7513269
Crystal is godly in any kind of rice and beans sort of thing.

This. Got it for Christmas and it gives me the worst farts I've ever had in my entire life for a full day or two after eating a small amount. I literally cleared out a hospital maternity ward waiting room and a liquor store in the same day on a single dose.

Can't wait till I get jury duty, I'm gonna pregame this stuff the night before.

>>7512704
Neither. Blis all day er'r'day.

>>7512793
Crystal is my favorite by far.

Saw someone mention it. This is my favorite hot sauce.

>>7513263
I sure love me some pb poisoning

>>7512704
Cholua by a mile but Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce is the best there is.

>>7513624
Yeah lemme me just store these peppers for 3 years in oak barrels and filter out the seeds and skins and stir for 3-4 weeks with vinegar

Dumbass

>>7515666
Most hot sauces aren't made with aged peppers, anon.

>>7515659

And FINALLY the correct answer is posted.

>>7512704
cholula fo sho

>>7515666
Are you retarded get of this board now and end yourself

>>7513263
I wouldnt call it goat but it's good

>>7515670
But the best one is
>>7515741
>normie get of my board ree:)

Fucking dumbass

May not be available nation wide but pic related is my go to.

>>7513584
Agreed i have 10 different sauces for diiferent foods.

>>7515659
This is the correct answer

>>7513050
The correct answer.

ITT People only list hot sauces you can find at Wal-Mart. Pic related is best hot sauce, really subtle, light heat but packed with great flavor.

>>7516106
>scrumptious

>baitin' this hard

>>7516120
oh sorry i meant to post another generic supermarket salty vinegar water with no actual ingredients my bad, i thought i was on /ck/

>>7516134
tabasco better

>>7516134
Adding cilantro into your sauce does not necessarily make it better.

Cholula, but it needs to be the garlic flavor.

>>7513365
cheeky

>>7512761
Thanks mate I'm in Australia and just used up next month's bandwidth opening that picture

>>7515666
Checked

Back the fuck up you fucking mongoloids and glimpse the true face of hot sauce perfection

There are people that actually like Tabasco?

>>7512704
Cholula 'cause you didn't offer the true superior sauce

>>7512704
Tabasco for hot sauce
Cholula for flavor sauce

>>7512715

It's hot sauce for women. That's why there's one on the bottle.

Tabasco is my go to simple hot sauce. I think the flavor blends well with a lot of other foods.

>>7513194
Sort of, yeah. Frank's is basically just a shittier Tobasco.

>>7513012
Mah niggah.
Chipotle Tabasco is incredible. That smokiness.
Haven't tried the latter yet.

>>7513384
Pretty much the right choice. It's pretty much made the original irrelevant to me. This and the Buffalo.

>>7512704
Got a bottle of Franks RedHot and Cholula. They're both pretty good, but RedHot just goes with a lot more foods than Cholula. Probably because it's more of a neutral heat with that Buffalo undertone.

Cholula's pretty much only there when I make tacos or anything with beans.

This ones in it's own lane

>>7521110
Way too mild. However, the black label (I think it's called Hotter?) is pretty solid.

>>7521110
I can only get medium at my store and it's pretty lame

>>7516134
Oh, I'm so sorry my sauce isn't organic and grown by hippies living in a commune using fertilizer made from their own shit.

>>7513263
Children eat that. I think this is a thread about hot sauces

Source: Arriba arriba ajua

This is the best hot sauce I've ever had.

>>7513194
Eh, a lot of people claim it's the traditional buffalo wing sauce. I really associate it with that "buffalo" flavor, but the piquance is pretty disappointing.

>>7523164
That stuff tastes like rotten ass. I like the heat but holy shit, it ruins everything it touches.

>>7512704
Depends on the dish. Cholula for burritos or tacos. Tabasco for scrambled eggs and pizza.

its not in a bottle so it doesnt count?

>>7524114
Love how nervous that duck looks.

>>7513384
Mah nigga.

>>7513609
http://www.amazon.com/TABASCO-Chipotle-Pepper-Sauce-Gallon/dp/B005EHHRJG

>>7512704
I mix the two together to give the Cholula a much-needed bit of spice.
Sometimes I mix Peri-Peri sauce with Cholula.

Also, I prefer Cholula Garlic.

>>7524118
That duck looks like he belongs on a can of pipian sauce.

>>7515659
GOAT sauce, don't eat it too much though because has a ton of lead apparently.

this is the god tier tabasco, habanero

>>7513560
>super thick hot sauce
> taste like watered down blah blah

'no'

>>7518031
i think it is just a meme

>>7525599
What? Valentina tastes like Tapatio with water added to it. I said nothing of it's consistency. You could also try making a point, so people don't think you're an absolute retard.

Can anyone suggest some good sauces that have a solid amount of heat without being "lmao ghost peppers, I'm so hardcore". Pic related, just finished a bottle of the middle stuff, their XXXtra hot. It's about the hottest I'd want, any more and I wouldn't taste any flavor. For reference, it's 11,600 scoville units

Anyone try this? I don't want the insanity stuff

>>7525151
lav it

There is no better or worse, just better suited to what you're eating. I probably have about 60 kinds of hot sauces, and no one is best.

On a side note, if you want to test out your hot sauces, get those cheap chicken taquitos from the freezer section. Not real tacos mind you, but those are so bland that they're the perfect canvas to try out and compare hot sauces on.

>>7524114
the green is so good with carnitas

>>7518030

I don't.

hated that vinegar taste in my hot sauce.

>all this plebeian grocery store taste in hot sauce

stay pleb, /ck/

Deliberately poisoning your food with tasteless pain.

You hotfags are total morons

>>7513050


why does this anon think we don't know what Tapatio is

>>7513384
The best sauce of all time for me.

>>7524121
Omfg in buying this right now. Fuck yes!

i love hot sauce. there's at least 6 different bottles in house at all times.

this shit, i like to melt my face off, this shit did it better than any hot sauce ever. i saw a grown man reduced to sweaty tears of agony by this. tried to warn him, but he was far too macho to heed my advice.

>>7513365
>not extra hot

>>7524199
It is way overblown the highest they found was 0.23 ppm which is double the FDA limit, which sounds bad but it is about half the 0.5 ppm limit for candy.
>It really isn't anything to worry about, you more likely to hurt yourself eating at chipotle

>>7513050
Get fucked with that weak ass sauce. Tabasco is the nectar of the gods not only in this universe but in other universes as well

Valentina Extra Hot is my hot sauce of choice because I'm too poor to afford Cholula.

>>7527744
>cholula - $3.50 a bottle
>valentina - $1 a bottle
The difference in quality is negligible anyhow, so fuck it

I prefer the chalupa sauce

>>7527744
Cholula is basically valentinas with less spice and more vinegar. You aren't missing much.

>>7515659
All of the flavors are great that I've tried

>>7527744
>crowley

wew lad

>>332782995
No love for Texas Pete?

I've been getting down with this fucker at work. Purdy fucking good

Just ordered a bottle of this stuff, never had any Dave's sauces before

>>7513263
>'Hot' sauce
It literally tastes like watery ketchup

I just came back from a trip to Food Depot and saw this floating in the Hispanic aisle. It's actually Jamaican, but from the quick dash I've tasted it's pretty damn good. It's got the vinegary flavor I like in my sauces but has some surprising bite. It also lists cane vinegar, and it does taste somewhat different. I'm making Jambalaya tomorrow so I'll give it a proper test in that.

Anyone try it before?

>>7526491
more like lava it.
amiriteq

>>7512704

>>7513439
this to be quite honest

Smoked Tabasco. Occasionally plain old Valentina.

>>7512704
Tabasco for worldwide availability.

>>7512704
>Tabasco "hot sauce"
It's just peppery vinegar.

>>7529822
Again with the shit quality tabasco pics

>>7513624
So how do you make yours?

>>7513384
this shit is soo fucking good cant even explain it

>>7512704
Best.

>>7513584
Different sauces for different uses.

But my go to is LA hit sauce. Best all around sauce because of its simplicity.

I had some really good hot sauce that was green but I can't remember what brand it was. Post pics of green ones until I recognize it.

>>7533389
How's it taste?

>>7513384

>El Yucateco

This stuff right here. It's not "the" green sauce but it's kinda green and hot as hell. The red habanero is awesome as well. Habanero pepper is the first or second ingredient listed on both of them, no pussy pepper

The real winner. I really wish this was more available

>>7529312
Mein nigga.

>>7518031
>>7512793
the one true hot sauce

lousianna is no. 2 for me, then maybe franks, then cholula, then tobasco

sriracha is great, but, like, a totally different thing

Only real choice. Perfect on ice cream.

>>7534322
Just tried this stuff recently, it's great. Good flavor and heat.
