There's a brand called Lost Capitol Foods that makes some great hot sauces. I think you can only get it in the midwest, but you might be able to get it online. Been a while since I've been out that way, so I don't know if they're still in business. I had bought a 6 pack, and loved every one.
 
I love my own sauces typically but store bought it's darn hard to beat El Yucateco sauces. They have many and they run around $2. Just as good as any of the trendy more expensive ones. I also love one I found recently at Walmart called Zaaschila Habanero Home style , super tasty with a hint of bright lemon that really works. It's less than $2.
 
El Yucateca is my favorite. The green is amazing. The chipotle is very smoky, BBQ-y.

That stuff is awesome! They have an avocado salsa that is quite tasty also.

Melinda's has more than a few great sauces, but I can't stay away from the black truffle and I really like their take on sriracha. Everyday use is the TP Hotter and Tabasco. Also, I'm never a great distance from some pickapeppa, but that's really not hot sauce.
I was going to mention the salsa, I really like it for something different

I popped in to a new small Latino grocery nearby yesterday just to see what they were up to. Some really interesting hot sauces. Thankfully I had left my wallet in the vehicle...must...resist...

I'm almost out of my Cajun Sunshine so time to get another bottle and probably look at some of the suggestions for Christmas gifts. I'm hard to shop for because most of my stuff is expensive usually, expensive hobbies anyways.
 
Picked up some Melinda's Black Truffle last night while walking around Menards looking for some home improvement stuff. Made up a couple Philly with Blue cheese brats to test it for supper. I really like this sauce, more unique than most others I have ever tried

Had to resupply my Cajun Sunshine Hot Sauce. Decided to try the Yucatan as well, not really as hot as I expected but so far so good on flavor. Wife and I are thinking we need to make up some basic wings and do some comparisons

Misread the title of this thread and thought it was a rehash of the BBQ sauce thread from not long ago.
A few years ago my daughter gifted me a sample pack of fermented hot sauce out of Fargo called "Off the Deck". I wasn't impressed with a Valley Bland interpretation of a hot sauce.
I'm a Texas Pete fan. The regular is fine as I can add garlic or other ingredients to amp up the flavor profile without having a number of bottles on the shelf.
I've tried a number of Melinda's and give it a thumbs down. Just not my liking in flavor. Also not a USA product.
I have a bottle of Fish Pepper sauce my son picked up in Baltimore. I love the flavor.
i have a couple bottles of Florida Datil pepper hot sauce. Love the taste of the Datil, but not a fan of the sugars all recipes add to the mix.
The US Foods packaged hot sauce is actually pretty good

Could it possibly be "Big Deck". There is a Fargo company that makes various products, their Fargocoa seasoning is pretty good and they have another that is similar to Tetonka Dust
