Which Hot Sauce Are You Pickin'?

[ConvenientParking]

Just S&P for eggs.

Nutmeg?

Yea a teensy bit of nutmeg in scrambled eggs is great. I am cooking for one a lot and my frequent weekday WFH go to for the last two years before my road trip was two eggs, pinch of nutmeg, splash of water scrambled in a bowl and then cooked (hard to do it like Gordon Ramsay where you scramble while cooking and get the nutmeg to mix in well).

 

[The Tradition]

No, flavor is flavor. NONE of those hot sauces listed are hot. At least not IMO. They're just good flavored sauces.

The other issues is peppers. I don't like the taste of ANY peppers. Bell, red, chili, jalapeno, habanero, ghost.... none of it.

So obviously, I'm not going to like a sauce based on any of those evil things.

I have nutmeg on hand, and only use it as a garnish for egg nog.

Will try this.

Now that's a valid reason haha

Typical old white man. Doesn't enjoy flavor


That is the absolute worst tasting hot sauce I've ever had in my life.

All the others in the Hot Ones box were interesting. Da Bomb tasted like metal and hate. Worst sause ever.

Yup, all versions of Da Bomb are just shit.

I ordered these 3 that were on Hot Ones, and they were phenomenal.

You can only have one of these for the rest of your life. Which one are you picking? Cannot pick any variations of a sauce. It has to be one of these shown. I don't dislike any of them, but Cholula is the very clear #1 for me. I'd probably pick Valentina or El Yucateco 2nd.

Of these, 5, 6, and 9.

 

[globalhawk]

I can absolutely live for the rest of my life without any of these. Don't understand the love for "hot sauce"....

12. Probably because I only recognize a few of them, but I keep franks on hand

That’s bc you’re supposed to eat it up your butt, not mouth.

Is buttmaxing the new microwaving?

 

[Fan In Black]

No 3 for me

We'll have to ask @Moral

I don't think you can really replace the wave, it is timeless and will be waving long after people are over buttmaxxing. At least with the average American. Lots of studies out there if you are interested.

 

[Fan In Black]

I still radar...short for radar range. I feel it brings out the flavor better than the wave.

So you like ketchup and mustard and that's it, besides BBQ sauces?

5. Has anyone tried Lola's?

 

[millah_22]

5. Has anyone tried Lola's?

No but @McLovin32 has had BofA’s

5. Has anyone tried Lola's?

I enjoy Lola’s. They just put out a new Buffalo wing sauce somewhat recently. Tried it a few weeks ago on wings and it’s fantastic.

 

[Moral]

5. Has anyone tried Lola's?

I like the flavor they have, heat wise they aren't all too hot.

#2 Valentina
Can be used on any food that would use hot sauce, more flavor and body with a kick than the usual offerings.

I wouldn't put Valentina on dog food.

 

[Jimmy McGill]

I'm taking them all. And if any you have problem with that.....I bear spray you

Actually, I'm embracing "no sauce"....

If you have to put sauce on your food, then you're covering up bad food.

I am just not sure if it's safe for dogs to consume. Best to be careful.

Half of my searches start with "can dogs eat." My dog loves mangos for the record.

Where do you get mangoes in Ioway?

 

[Chewback]

Tabasco only. The rest of those suck.

 

[Moral]

Grocery stores mostly. Sometimes a dealer.

They have to be canned. Like Mexican produce

Bassssssic

 

[Jimmy McGill]

Being former military, Tabasco will always be my baby.

5. I prefer this version of 5 though.

Your endorsement is too lukewarm. This stuff cured me of depression.

Guess I can't argue.

So no seasoning either?

 

[NoleinATL]

Me either, my dogs do not enjoy spicy food

 

[The Tradition]

I'm getting pretty close to S&P only on that front, too.

If I have high-quality meat, then I want to taste the meat. Not the seasoning.
