This any good. What's a God tier hot sauce, I'm tired of tobasco.

Yes. It's spicier and has less of a vinegar flavor than Tabasco. It's still not very spicy in the grand scheme of things, though.

Cholula is fine, but not god tier. I use it on popcorn and some other things I don't want much heat on.

Pic related is god tier. My favorite is the orange one. There is a black one now but I only found it once.

why is every fucking "really hot" hot sauce based on either habanero,or some FUCKMYSHITUP hot pepper like jolokia and ghost peppers?

Why not a madame jeanette or adjuma or something similair.

The heat level of most habanero sauces is GOAT but I cant stand that overly zesty,fruity fucking flavour.

I'm surprised no one ever mentions this stuff. It's one of the few "conventional" sauces that I would describe as "perfect." Apparently, the internet agrees because it gets perfect ratings everywhere you look. Thing is, unless you live in the South you'll have to order it online.

The red habanero tastes like fucking Tabasco ketchup. The black tastes like dirt and smoke.

>>6995460
Habanero is one of the better tasting peppers that you can easily get.

Jalapeno (fresh, fuck that pickled shit) are also good, but have a strong flavor that doesn't mix well with some things. They can range from not-hot to "that's kinda hot." I like jalapeno on my hamburgers (Five Guys for the win).

Serrano peppers are a step up from jalapeno while having a more mild flavor. I like them better for cooking with.

Pic related is my current favorite. It's not super hot but it's got a great sweet flavor that makes it great on pizza and subs.

A friend of mine also grabbed me a bunch of habanero stuff on his way back from Texas.

>Yucatan Sunshine.
Babby's first habanero sauce. Great flavor but mild. Good if your cooking something and want the flavor but are serving it to people who don't like super duper on the Scoville scale.

>Mad Dog's revenge.
The opposite. Great flavor but man it's up there. Makes Dave's Insanity taste like ketchup.

>Three Banditos Habanero Salsa.
This brand has got a ton of great stuff. Not super spicy for me but it's got a kick. I love pouring some of this in a bag with some chicken then grilling that shit a day later. Makes for a good smoky queso dip too.

This.

That sauce is awesome with white chowders when combined with a bit of black pepper. Hot, but not overly and brings a more savory, hearty flavor to it that helps compliment the soup/chowder without drowning out its flavor.

I've come to a point where a chowder isn't "whole" to me without it.

The lazyfag example I can recommend is Progresso chicken corn chowder with a few drops of cholula and a bit of the black pepper of your choice. With a bit of fresh bread, it's amazing on a cold fall/winter day.
