What is your favorite hot sauce?

[Compulsive Smoker]

Hi everyone!

I very much enjoy a good hot sauce, and am always on the lookout for new good ones to try.

My favorite at the moment is Secret Aardvark Habanero ,but I’d love to hear from you all what you’re favorites are!

I'm pretty simple when it comes to hot sauce. For breakfast it is Tabasco, any thing else Louisiana Hot Sauce. If we eat out and they don't have either I use whatever they have on hand.

This discussion comes around every few years, but nice to start again as taste changes.
Texas Pete is my favorite for widely available. Confirmed when visiting an old Cuban sandwich shop in Tampa. They use Texas Pete.
My son got me a bottle of a Baltimore Fish Pepper sauce that is my overall favorite

My buddy loves that hot sauce but I not tried it. I have several I switch up but my favorites are from a Mexican Store, La Michoacana Meat Market that makes several which are so good but my favorite the Maldo.

For everyday use I like Melindas Red Savina.

I’ve had Texas Pete before, I liked it, but haven’t had any for awhile. Thanks for reminding me about it!

Where do you get it? I searched on Amazon and they had a bunch of other Melinda’s flavors, but I didn’t see that one.

I like Frank's hot sauce, not to hot, I just can't take anything much hotter. Dont know why but when I try real hot stuff it turns my stomach.

I had some Frank’s on sweet corn for dinner last night! I like to eat sweet corn with sour cream and hot sauce…

It's very hard to come by these days, it's even sold out on there website.

If you have a TJMaxx,Marshalls or Homegoods near you check out the little specialty food section in the back as on occasion they will have runs on Melindas products at highly discounted prices.When I find either the Red Sevina or the Scorpion I will buy everything they have!

I don’t have any of those stores real close by, but I’ll keep my eyes open! I’d like to try some…

Most of my favs are from Horsetooth hot sauce or quarantine project.

Ive tried so many, I like heat with flavor. Not always the easiest to find. these two companies are IMO the best. horsetooth is on Amazon and local sometimes, quarantine is all online. Both well worth a taste

I've been on a bottle of Crystal's lately and was pretty surprised for the price. Tobasco is meh for me anymore, the green is ok but there are just better options our there these days to my taste. I had a forum going a while back that had lots of good ones from others and some of the various ones I had been trying as well.

Favorite Store Bought Hot Sauces

Been getting into trying some different store bought hot sauces. Really like the Killer Hogs and good old Franks Wings but a couple of my new ones is Lola's green sauce and one called Cajun Sunshine that I have put a hurting on the past week. I really like me a good green sauce and that Cajun...

Tabasco Habenero is ok in a pinch.

I love that idea! Never did it before, but you’ve got me thinking…

I agree, most Tabasco is ok, but nothing to write home about…
