The green el yucateco is the worst of the six varieties.

>>9683019
I've never had their Naga, is it good?

>>9683008
>vinegar and green food coloring

Please. Don't even bother trying next time.

>>9683111
Yeah, it's pretty good. I like ghost peppers in sauce, it's fruity and hot. Not like nuclear hot, but still pretty darn hot. I like their scorpion sauce too.

Mornay

>>9683008

I literally just purchased this sauce from Walmart 4 days ago for a camping trip, and it tastes like habanero diarrhea after some mexican hasn't been able to take a shit for 2 weeks due to constipation from too many enchiritos.

How the fuck can you consider that garbage "best"?

>>9683229
Maybe he disagrees with you about the taste

>>9683019
FPBP

>>9683038
I prefer the brown variety, it goes really well with anything acidic or meats in general.

This sauce releaseds dopamine in my brain.

>>9683319
My favorite too. I put it on everything but seems to go best with pork.

unironically this

>>9683341
Is this welfare grade sriracha

>>9683512
It's better than sriracha

>>9683512
>>9683605
Essentially the same ingredients but with none of that weird celery-like chili fruit taste

This stuff is delicious, my absolute favorite hot sauce. Must not be widely available because every time I post it I get no response. If you ever see it pick it up, it's worth trying and it's not expensive like a lot of meme sauces.

For me it's the mad dog 357 gold edition

What is the scoville level on these EXTRA HOT hot sauces? I ate a birds eye/thai/arbol chili and I was unhappy. Are these as hot?

Delicious and all purpose, the best.

>>9683667
I've seen it in PA. How hot we talking here? couple drops on a burger or a upturn and hit the bottom a few times?

>>9683748
The latter. On something like a burger or pizza you could spread on a layer of it. It's definitely hotter than all the popular hot sauces but not meme-hot. The flavor is great.
They also sell the habanero sauces in various hot levels. Pic related is the best and hottest, but they have a lot of other varieties too.

The best of the best.

I use to put this shit on everything until i got diabetes and my doctor gutted my diet.

the hot sauces are great but i love the vinegary mexican ones

>>9684620
I tried valentina for the first time the other day after seeing it for 99c a bottle at the grocery store
its alright. kind of just reminds me of tapatio
also got a bottle of crystal for the same price which I much prefer, goes great on eggs which is mainly what I use hot sauce for

frank's

Sauces really depend on what you use them on, >>9683008
this one is good for seafood
>>9684620
this one is the best on popcorn or chips. >>9683280
cholula i would say with eggs and american breakfast stuff (IHOP)
>>9684472
I would use this one same as above if i want a different flavor.

>>9683512
its more expensive, it tastes the same 2 me; only diff is that it has seeds in it so it has more heat, & maybe more garlic, but thats it imo

>>9683008
best sauce i had was 'home-made'
jar of chilpotle, blend it, strain the seeds & paste out 4 l8er, then i mix the sauce with another hot sauce if i feel like; always so good -- the paste with seeds too

>>9684620
Help me out with this: how do you like all these processes sauces? I tend to avoid most sauces for whatever reason, but the one I tried and kinda liked was pic related, which is probably shit tier for most people because I rarely see anyone buying it; it always either San Luis or Valentina

>>9685475
And I'm an idiot and forgot the image

>>9683667
I have never seen this variety, I've only seen their more tame sauces

>>9683341
Never tried this one before but I will need time I see it

There is a local chain restaurant called tijuana flats and they have a "hot sauce bar" with their own sauces, they have ghost pepper sauce available and I actually really like their sauces overall, it's a shame they're kinda expensive when it comes to buying sauces

Why would you guys shill for the Jew of Belize?
>The product was the first commercially successful agricultural product manufactured in and exported from Belize, under the name of "Melinda’s Hot Sauce". Once the market for the product had been established, the distributor who was marketing the sauce, trademarked the product name, effectively cutting Sharp out of her own business. After a five-year struggle, Sharp gave up the name to Melinda's in exchange for being released from her exclusive contract with the distributor and re-branded the product under her own name.

>>9683197
Thank you, friend.

>>9683008
Pic related is a recent personal favorite for a multi-purpose table sauce that doesn't overwhelm most dishes. Heavy garlic, moderate vinegar twang, mellow sweet notes from fig & apple, and a nice smoldering burn.

>>9683605
sriracha is a delicacy in vietnam, checkmate tuong ot toi viet-nam

>>9685975
Don't care. The Naga sauce is absolutely delicious, and the only locally available hot sauce which is hot enough for my taste yet absent of pepper extract and its burnt asshole aftertaste.

Are those hot sauce clubs worth the price for a monthly shipment of 3 bottles? I've tried everything in the stores and need to branch out.

>>9686159
Why don't you try it for a few months? It looks like they're pretty cheap especially if you do it quarterly. If I didn't make my own I'd probably do it.

>>9686214
I'm thinking about it just to try out some different sauces. $10ish a bottle is a bit steep but I've been jewed by puckerbutt for a lot more. Has anyone tried shit the bed hot sauce?

>>9686271
Just go to the grocery store every month and buy a new sauce

This shit is delicious. I just eat flour tortillas with hot sauce on them because I enjoy the taste of the sauce so much

>>9683193
they don't use artificial food coloring anymore.

>>9686436
It doesn't even have any vinegar either. That dude aint playing with a full deck.

>>9686306
I've tried every sauce in the only two grocery stores I have here in north dakota

>>9686550
Well, time for mail order then.

>>9686102
>>9686159
>>9686214
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.

>>9686271
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.

>>9686595
Awesome thanks

>>9686696
If you're putting together an order at heathotsauce and are comfy with bhut, scorpion, etc sauces, I'm this anon:
>>9686010
I really fell in love with that sauce as my daily, multipurpose, table sauce. The Optimus Primo, Painapple, Unholy Trinity, Lethal Ingestion, Zombie Torchbearer, etc are mostly too hot to use as a general condiment (delicious, but you have to plan around them). The Lucky Dog Black Label brings a huge depth of flavor with burn that builds very slowly giving me plenty of leeway to enjoy the dish itself without the getfukt superhot burn kicking in. </shill>

>>9683341
salem oelek is better but the same thing

>>9686966
>same thing
No. Sambal Oelek (gold label) is Huy Fong's standard ground chili sauce without any added garlic. The stuff pictured in the other anon's post is Huy Fong's chili sauce with garlic (and possibly other ingredients) added.

>>9683280
Finally tried this, the taste is okay, but there's zero heat

Is Mad dog 357 worth it?
What about "da bomb insanity"?
I've gotten really sick of the taste of el yucateco and want to step my game up.

>>9688026
those are extract sauces. have you had extract sauces before? a lot of people don't like the taste. the Primo sauce this guy >>9686595 mentioned would be hotter while still tasting good. basically look into sauces with ghost peppers, scorpions, reapers, and 7 pots.

>>9686595
>heathotsauce
I read that as He a Thot Sauce

>>9688355
(you)

>>9688340
Well I planned on using them and diluting them a little bit. I want a lot more punch without it just turning into "we just filled the bottle with cayenne and vinegar". Louisanna style hotsauces are gross to me and I can't seem to avoid them.

>>9688361
It is pretty delicious though, it's not hard to see why it is so ubiquitous

This. I am addicted to the tang and have tried many other hotsauces, but none better than this. Getting kind of hungry typing this tbҺ.

i really enjoyed this. different. worth trying, yall

>>9688538
Fuck off.

>>9688575
What is vinegar

how long does chilli last exposed to air and the elements? whats the best hot stuff to spray with a spray bottle? Im looking to unroll public toilets toilet paper rolls and covering the last part with sprayed chilli so itll only become apparent long after ive left.

any suggestions? its gotta last, be pretty much invisible and transfer from paper to skin really easily

>>9683019
Yes. This. Melinda's is fucking delicious!

This contender isn't super hot, but the complexity of flavors is second to very few..

>>9688777

Blair's Ultra Death

>>9683008
the el yucateca exxxtra picante mayan style is the best one and hotter.

So I've always bought the bright red el yucateca

the bottles arent labeled any differently

whats the difference between the bright red, dark red, and green?

just got this one in the mail, we shall see today

This stuff is great for cooking and chili

>>9690832
highly reccomend this, had it today on some chicken amd thrn later on some curry. delicious

>>9688575
>>9688755

It's more than vinegar it has a really nice pimento flavour

>>9693612
how was the heat? Their habanero is close to where I'm comfortable at, so i've been putting off trying this.

>>9690824
There is no 'dark red'. Maybe you mean the mayan recipe. Anyway...

Green - unripened(green) habanero
Red - ripened habanero
Mayan - fire roasted
Reserve - even more fire roasted
Caribbean - different spices and lime
Chipotle - added chipotle in adobo

Green and red taste similar but the red is a little hotter.
The brownish Mayan is much hotter with a unique charred quality.
The reserve is not as hot as the mayan but with a similar yet even more charred or smoky quality.

Caribbean is similar to red but not as hot and made with lime...this is similar to marie sharps.

Chipotle is chipotle. Good but not amazing. It was around before people new what chipotle was.

>>9684667
They make a steak sauce which has been discontinued. It's such a shame because it was one of my favorites.

>>9683512

it's literally made by the same producer you retard

it just has garlic and has a more varied consistency

>>9693673
definitely hotter than most habanero sauces ive tried but still very good, has enough flavor on its own but does well mixed to other dishes

heatwise i would give it a 6.5/10. burned for like 10 mins after done eating, nose running, little bit of sweat, eyes just almost tearing up

>>9683512
It's sriracha with garlic and less sugar it's hard to go back once you realize how nauseatingly sweet sriracha is

>>9685475
Bufalo is not like valentina, san luis, or tapatio. I think people dont buy it because traditionally its mostly used on fruit, unlike the others which are used on many foods and snacks.

I hate people like you.
Most of those sauces have no business in a refridgerator.

>>9694213
enlighten me

>>9694282
seriously???
With but a few exceptions...your
hot sauces
mustards
ketchups
soy sauces
jams
jellies
vinaigrettes
mirin
Hoisin

Pretty much everything there has enough sugar salt and/or acid to make refridgeration unnecessary and you will find they all have more flavor at room temperature.

Anything Hidden Valley should definitely be out of the fridge...
and in the garbage.

>>9694373
You know, I find that refrigeration tends to extend the shelf life of the ones I don't use quickly enough. In fact may of these lose flavor or pungency over time so keeping them in the fridge keeps them flavorful. I warm many of these over before serving anyway.

>>9694118
how is poverty treating u?

>>9694460

so godlike. I always keep a huge one around. One of my fav sauces.

>>9691315
that description got me interested. I may try this.

>>9694815
I have to admit I really enjoy A1.. one of my fav potato toppings.

I thought the taste was really good, only the spice was too hot for me

>>9688782
Insanely overpriced.

>>9686010
This looks interesting

>>9694455
Maybe you should learn how to cook then you dont have to keep all that crap around for months at a time.

>>9693738
Habaneros don't change color according to their ripeness, the different colors are diferent kinds of habanero.
Also, you forgot the black one.

>>9694118
So youre that guy

You love eating.
You enjoy "cooking"
Youre always the grill master during football season
You bring a special dish to the office party

But...
You have no idea how to actually cook and are limited to 3-5 "secret recipes". After that you are Iron Chef Microwave.

>>9696463
You are an idiot.
I grow 13 varieties of habanero.
I operate a small hot sauce retail operation.
I did not forget the black one.
It is the Reserve.

>>9696433
>>9696465
I love cooking and use these sauces as condiments, same as most of the posters in this thread. The region I live in is the premiere culinary destination in the US and I am well-versed in our traditions with a wide repertoire, but I know I'm wasting my breath asking you to take my word for it.

Hell hath no fury

>>9696764
>I am well-versed...with a wide repertoire
>i have multiple bottles of Hidden Valley

Choose one.

>>9696913
You're right. I consolidated them into one bottle

>>9696764
Youre in new orleans.

>>9698504
Oh ho, you memed us good, you big goofball!

>>9685481

Bufalo is great on popcorn. Also there is a chipotle version which tastes good.

So here is my problem: I often try to buy hot sauce that says "7/10 hot!" But it tastes about as hot as Tabasco. I make the mistake of thinking because it says habenaro that it may be comparable in heat. So at this point I don't know how hot I want something but I certainly want it hotter than tabasco. I love vinegarry sauces (not quite as much as tabasco though). I also like sweet although it is not a requirement. Can anyone recommend a sauce that might test my boundaries for heat but also has good flavor?

>>9698616
I should say this is the one I bought recently. They did specifically say it wasn't supposed to be too hot but I thought it might be hot enough, with habenaro and all. Taste is great. Would be nice if it was hotter

(You) Niggers sleepin'

scotch bonnet <3

>>9698616
Melinda's Scotch Bonnet.
It is not normally something i recommend as i think there are much better Melinda's sauce available but you said you like vinegary and a little hotter than Tabasco.

If you want to go beyond salty vinegar then you should try Marie Sharp's. Her products are all clean, of high quality, and reasonably priced. If Tabasco is your benchmark for heat i would start with Marie Sharp's Fiery Hot.

>>9698797
Thanks, I'll order both. I am not necessarily for vinegar either. I haven't tried a lot of hot sauce. I don't really like the taste of sriracha though. That is my benchmark for not vinegarry at this point. I think it's fine on some stuff like pizza but I wouldn't put it on a sandwich

>>9698859
Well if youre this open-minded and curious i would skip the scotch bonnet becuase its just a ho-hum Marie Sharp's then add Melinda's Fire Roasted and a bottle of El Yucateco xxx Mayan.

That will be three high-quality and distictly different sauces that have as much flavor as heat.

>>9698930
Done. I also bought a variety pack from melidas. Probably got 10 bottles coming to me. Looking forward to it

>>9683008
Despite that A-Frame is a candy sauce, it's still pretty tasty. Iguana is also very good.

Judge

>>9698504
honestly a great sauce tho

>>9698633
i was about to post this. i've only tried this one and the mild ghost sauce but it's great enough for the price to make me want to try all the other ones

I enjoy this one.

>>9698691
this shit is AMAZING on pork chops

Waiting for examples of your elite compositions. I will counter but the burden is on you to prove how sophisticated you are.

>>9700296

>>9701981
>prove you're better than me.
There is no Hidden Valley Ranch in my refrigerator.

Someone had to post it

The aadvark has been my goto hot sauce for the last few years. Decent heat goes well on tons of stuff. Shout out also to Foo Foo Mama Choo and Lucky Dog sauces.


>>9690832
Good shit. Their habanero one is really good too. I also really like the serrano one. They make it with cucumber and comes out pretty interesting but not for everyone.

Like seriously why do you people like having your taste buds fried by capsacin? Do you not like enjoying the natural flavor of foods?

>>9695404
big fan here

>>9683008

>best dressing

>best hot sauce

>>9690778
This is the one I got, but if you use too much of it it will make your experience uncomfortable real fast. And it's got a pungent, earthy flavor that overpowers tomato flavor pretty easily. One or two drops in a big pot of chili is enough.

>>9706712
what is this?

Love me some sweet with my heat

>>9708944
For people who love them some hot dirty dicks.

>>9707635
Gotta disagree with you Anon. I think it does a better job of letting the natural citrus flavors of the habanero come through. It's one of my everday sauces and I put it on a lot of stuff.

>>9706741
This is usually good enough for me. Great tang, heat not overwhelming. Put on eggs mostly, sometimes chicken

>>9698616
This sauce changed my mind on Trinidad scorpion sauces. I love it.

>>9698504
makes any cheap chinese dish a good meal.

This is the first Melinda sauce I try and it's fucking incredible.

I like the Yucateco Chipotle sauce but it's a bit too sweet. Its sugar (corny syrup) content for me is just stupid. If so many other sauce brands can make amazing sauces without making corn syrup the second ingredient in the label, then its stupid of them to do so.

>>9711390
Forgot my pic.

>>9698691
Very Good

>>9684974
I made tinga chicken recently using canned chilpotle peppers. It was quite good. I had never tried it before, but now I'm a little more open to using them in the future.

>>9713530
I would suggest putting it on food to make it tastier and hotter.

>>9704510
I just bought 3 bottles online. I hope its good.

>>9714042
why would you buy 3 bottles of something you've never had before?

>>9714053
Because I've heard nothing but good things about it. And I can afford to do so. Rather than getting the shipping twice, I got the value option. Worst case scenario, I hate it and give it to my friend who likes hot sauce too.

where my niggas at?

>>9695698
Don't think Jews like spicy shit. Nothing wrong with liking pastrami.

How could anyone argue with this desu

>>9695933
As a native Louisianaian, I prefer "LOUISIANA" brand hot sauce to all other local mainstream brands like Tabasco (not allowed in my home) Crystal (my wife likes it, we have the extra hot variety) or Cajun Chef. I had no idea this company made a Habanero suce.

>>9693738
Are you trolling or retarded? The green is twice as hot as the red on the Scoville scale.

>>9696475

>>9698323
Tell me more about this sauce please.

>>9698633
The Purry Purry is very tasty but not hot at all.

I really want to try this scotch bonnet ginger sauce

>>9716738
how does this compare to the orange-colored one? i have that one and feel like it's too bitter and vinegary

Marie Sharps brand, hands down. The bottles can get fairly hot but the flavor never takes a backseat.
