    Default Hot Sauce's

    I just finished reading an article in Smoke Magazine about Tabasco and it made think about all the different hot sauces out there. My favorites are the green and Chipotle Tobasco’s and my absolute go-to hot sauce is Cholula (most commonly found at Chipotle). I like those because they add spice and heat, but are also very flavorful. I’ve seen some out there that just want to make your ass hurt for days, but that’s not my style. Anyway, what kind of hot sauces do y’all like and enjoy?

    I am not much for hot sauces in bottles like tabasco (even though alot are made in LA). There is a red pepper paste that I have found only in Asian food stores, that I use pretty often. It is not only pretty hot, but adds alot of flavor IMO. I forget the name. I also use a powdered spice call "slap ya mamma" that is pretty good.

    I tend to lean toward the green sauces like CJ. Like Stjohnroe though, when it comes to red sauces, I am a Frank's fan. Prior to Frank's Red Hot, it was made by Durkee's.

    I like salsa verde, but haven't found to many places that make it like the kind I had in Acapulco, Mexico.

    I am very partial to Cholula hot sauce, its got spice and great rich flavor, not just a burning hot sensation. Also very fond of a local Texas hot sauce called La Fogata made in San Antonio. Put it on my breakfast tacos every morning - consisting of hot sausage, real aged chedder cheese, tortilla, all heated up on a griddle then dashed with hot sauce and consume.

    The best wing sauce in the world is just Franks Red Hot and butter.

    I'll add my two cents worth for the Cholula sauce. Tasty and spicy

    Heat without flavor is boring!

    I also use a red chili powder mix from India, but I can't remember the name right off. It's gives a slow but Hot! burn which taste good also.

    I do have to agree that Franks is the best wing sauce.

    Franks and regular Tabasco are my top two. Franks is good when you want to use lots of sauce, like hot wings or spicy BBQ beef or Pork. Tabasco is better for seasoning things like eggs, meat, and pizza. It has more zing per drop than Franks, so you don't have to completely douse the food in it.

    My wife absolutely loves Tabasco and puts it on all kinds of food. Me, it's too vinegary for, so I never use it. Have fallen in love with Cholula hot sauce, it's got lots of flavor with the heat!

    I'm a huge hot sauce fan! I like Tobasco, Texas Pete, Cholua, Tiger Sauce, but my favorite and hottest is actually like a novelty sauce, called Spontaneous Combustion. Hard to find it, but don't try more than a drop if it's your first. I love it on BBQ, Pork Chops, etc. Pretty hot so you have to be a pepper fan to take that stuff. It's usually found in Bass Pro Shops, gander Mountain, etc. Bout $7 a bottle
