Hot Sauce

Ass Kickin Cajun is one we really like... medium heat with good flavor.

VA, we like the mango habanero also...we aren't much for wings, but they put it on our burgers.

Does mustard sauce qualify in this discussion?

Years ago at a Chinese restaurant, before we ordered, the waiter set out wontons and 2 sauces- a sweet/sour and a hot mustard. The person I was with was talking as I scooped some mustard sauce on a wonton and took a bite. I swallowed and felt this rush of intense "heat" work it's way up my neck and to my face. The person stopped talking laughed and pointed at me. "You should see your face" he said.

And then it was gone. No burn, nothing. Apparently my face flushed red. I tried it again- same thing.

The waiter came back and pointing to the mustard sauce said "I forgot to warn you, that is pretty hot".

Yeah. I frigging loved it. I've never found anything like that since in any restaurant. No idea what they used, but damn, was that good. No upset stomach, no burn except for a moment. Strangest sensation- I could just feel the "heat" work it's way up my body, up my neck to my head and finally to my face where it just sort of "escaped" out my face. No after taste. No lingering burn.

Cleared the hell out of my sinuses.

Best. Sauce. Ever.

"Thilandese"? Thai people do love spicy food. They like other cultures will often have something on the table to bring it down a little, not always. Typically, that is what the rice is for. Ask for raita if you are at a South Asian place (Indian, Pak, Nepali, Bang..). On a fun note, the hottest peppers grown in part of India aren't eaten. They rub them on fences, shrubs, and trees to keep the elephants away.

An Indian restaurant in Chicago told me the trick is a sweet pudding to counter the hot. Ice water or soda doesn't do the trick.

The 'Blazing' wings from Buffalo Wild Wing are all heat and no fun. Just an exercise in pain. They had this rum scorpion pepper sauce for a while that was smokin' hot but tasted very good. I really like the mango habanero.

The Korean volcano wings at Twin Peaks are damn good.

Well there is no sense in having it that hot..just a gimmick...

For a while, the buffalo wings factory offered a habanero based sauce on their hottest wings. I sat there and devoured them for hours. I don't know why they stopped. I started sampling other places.

I went to a place that offered 5 levels if sauce. The second hottest was the 911 and the hottest was the Flatliner. When asked for the Flatliner, the waiter stopped, looked at me and said "Why man?"

I told him I want my name on the wall, which is what happens if you succeed in eating the wings. I signed the release form and he advised me to try one wing first after a meal of the 911. So after I finished the 911 portion (dozen), I dug into the Flatliner covered wing. By god, it was as if hellfires broke all over the place. I was being punished for my sins. No amount of water and soda could stop the pain. The burning and sweating were incredible. My fingertips burned. My forehead burned. Even my dick burned. I finished the wing, and called in sick for the rest of the day, went home and laid on the couch praying for god can seal the hole I feel had been opened in my stomach.

Yep. Some things are better left to the Indians and Thilandese. They rule the hot sauce world!

I feel the need for a big hot plate of mexican food, A big shreded beef burrito my Fav...

Oh my head sweats like crazy if I eat really spicy food. I actually like the feeling.

Back in the day, I used a razor to shave my head.

My Jamaican and Belize friends loved to cook spicy stuff.

And they'd laugh when I would be eating and sweating like I just stepped out of a sauna.

The extra sauce in the back room is generally just a chili paste or some type. Many cultures will have a separate type of paste for each meal and often times some pastes will be for just one dish. It's like asking for a Indian mango pickle. There are easily 50 different types. Most Asian markets in the states will have a decent variety of pastes to try.

Do you like extra hot sauce they keep "in the back room" at Chinese and Indian restaurants.

Things like that Mad Dog 357 isn't so much as 'hot sauce' as it is pepper spray.

Some can be extremely hot but still tasty. Others are just an exercise in Scovilles.

Hot Sauce is a cool topic. Can't say I have a favorite, and I wish I could remember the name of one I had- had real gold flakes in it, and came with a belt buckle that looks like a vagina. Quite the conversation piece. Apparently a mold was made of a woman's coochie to cast the buckle. Or so it said.

Love the names of some I've come across: Anal Angst, Ass Reaper, Hemorrhoid Helper, Megasoreass, Professor Payne Indeass' Butt Pucker, Colon Pucker, Rectal Revenge, Flamin' Flatulence, Wet Fart.

Some are just too hot- no flavor just burn. Dave's Insanity sauce come to mind. A tiny drop on a toothpick to sample and... I tasted nothing for 2 days. Just felt the burn.

"In Belize they had cucumber hot sausage it was great but the best l had was in a small burrito place , the lady cut up onion and scotch bonnet pepper and put it in a mason jar with white vinegar you just used the onion that was infused with the peeper it was great ."

I got a three pack of new ones yesterday. First one I tried (on some chili) was blazing hot. Flavor was OK.

I have a datil pepper sauce called A Frame that I really like the flavor of, but it has very little heat. So I actually spike it with some of these "try this tough guy" sauces to get the best of both worlds.

We like sauces with tamarind on fish and sometimes chicken or pork, people find it very different. It makes a good impression to be pleasantly different.

Typing too fast I guess but we'll be using some tonight for our Cinco De Mayo celebration dinner.

Not a big fan of hot sauces, but Sriracha gave me the opportunity to put up a hot cock pic on my profile without getting it kicked back. :)

Pickapeppa uses tamarind which is AWESOME. I don’t know of any other sauce using tamarind.

Pickappepa?!?

Must be a yardee!

Love hot sauces and we have a decent selection. The suggestions below can be found using Google.

• Nandos Peri Peri sauce. Great taste without the painful heat. Originated in Portugal, and gained so much popularity, you can get it now here.

• Praya Mango Pickles. Those are Indian, and are just plain awesome with most meals. If you have an Indian place near you, go there because the jar there is under $5 compared to internet ripoffs on eBay and Amazon.

Plain Jane..... Texas Pete or Louisiana hot sauce for me. Don't care if it cost $1 or $15.

It's like ketchup on my fries. Heinz or generic.

To me, good food is good with or without condiments.
