jmjustin6 Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 So I'm just curious does everyone here enjoy hot sauces? If so what is your go to hot sauce that you need to always have a bottle of? Mine has to be valentina (black label) but lately I've really enjoyed El Yucateco's green habanero sauce. Now when it comes to other hot sauces. How hot do you like them? Long story short I think I have been eating too much hot sauce lately and I cant feel any heat from the normal hot sauces or even the "XXX" hot sauces. So I have been watching "Hot Ones" on youtube (great show if you havent seen it) And I just bought a couple of the really insane hot sauces that I saw on the show off amazon. DA' Bomb came first in the mail and I had to get some friends over. DA' Bomb has a scoville level of 135,600. In comparison a regular bottle of Tabasco is 700 scoville units. So we grilled up some chicken and tried it out. This is definitely not your normal hot sauce! My tongue was on fire! It was hot but still I wasnt screaming and running around like all my friends were. So I felt I needed more. So today in the mail I got Blair's Mega Death Sauce with Liquid Rage. This one comes in at 500,000 Scoville units and maybe this one will give me the sting I need. Probably gonna get everyone together again this weekend to try it out. I'm gonna have some milk on the side ready to be used! So again this is one of my things i love and I'm just curious about everyone here. Do you like hot sauce? Do you not? If so how hot have you gone before? StormSurge, RickR, GRay Defender and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 Can't say I do. I've never been much of a fan of adding hot sauces to my food. But I don't like food to hot or spicy either.

RickR Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 I know a lot of people like you that love the hot sauces. But sadly, I'm what you'd call a wuss-mouth. The hottest I'll go is the old standard Rooster Sriracha. At my age, the hot stuff almost always causes pain a few hours after consumption jmjustin6, Justin and HDN 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got tired of it though. I change up sauces alot. I like to try all different kinds. There are some sauces that are a little weak on the heat but have amazing flavors Justin and RickR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chas10e Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 No hot sauce for me thanks !!! anything hotter than a bar-b-Que potato chip is WAY to spicy for me ! Every once in a while I will do a tiny dip of salsa if available eating tortilla chips from a mexican resturant. mild is ok and will try a bigger scoop if not to spicy. jmjustin6, RickR and Justin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 One of my kids likes "Franks" a lot, and I think it's pretty good too. But I don't think it's very hot compared to these nuclear options you bought. Chas10e mentioned the salsa at Mexican restaurants. I usually try the hottest they got at those places, then back off if it's too hot. Most of the time, the hotter salsas have a lot more flavor whereas the mild just tastes like watery tomato. But then I'll start sweating and my wife says "you better take it easy". Justin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjustin6 Posted August 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) So when it comes to salsa this is my go to stuff right here. It's got a great flavor too it and just enough heat to be good but not over power you Edited August 13, 2019 by jmjustin6 Justin and StormSurge 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dauber Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 Depends on the sauce, really. There's a thai restaurant near where I work (in fact, I had dinner with TrekMD there once ) -- I'll use any and all hot sauces they have there. But I'm not one of those hot sauce people who has to look for the hottest of the hot. I like a little pick-me-up.

Next time it's on sale, I'll give it a shot. jmjustin6 and Justin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dauber Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 You think the caution label scares you? There used to be a shop at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas that sold all kinds of hot sauces. For certain sauces, you'd actually have to sign a release for the State of Nevada before they'd allow you to purchase!

StormSurge Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 I LOVE spicy food & sauces but it has to be tolerable. If it’s so spicy that I can’t enjoy the flavor, than that’s no good. This is from my absolute favorite restaurant, which makes pasta from scratch. If you can’t make out the writing, it says “Reaper Hab”. 🔥 Soooo good. I pair it with Buffalo Alfredo sauce.

slobu Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 I use the hottest I can find. Usually at least ghost pepper. I get Pure Cap when i can find it. Just one or two drops per plate/bowl though. Saves a ton of money for big flavor!

LSGreger Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 I am a basic guy with my hot sauce. My son and I love Franks Red Hot. Whenever we need a spicy shot or especially with pizza. I add it before I pop it in the oven. Justin and StormSurge 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjustin6 Posted October 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 (edited) Forgot to add this but a week ago I was talking to a mega video game display collector. He mostly collect original Nintendo neons and such. His collection is wild. Well we got to talking about food. Then about hot sauces. Turns out he grows peppers and makes his own sauce. he was awesome enough to give me a bottle of Carolina reaper (hottest pepper in the world) sauce and 2 peppers that I plan on eating with a buddy. Cabt get any hotter than this yall!! Edited October 24, 2019 by jmjustin6 LSGreger, StormSurge and Justin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjustin6 Posted October 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Well I like the heat. I have eaten so much hot stuff that the hot doesnt do anything to me anymore and now I can totally taste the flavor of most any hot sauce.
