Even my pasty, heat averse azz uses Chohula Original as my baseline.

MACS going with Frank's Red Hot? I thought he was against ketchup on eggs.

I have probably about 40 bottles of hot sauce in the basement and 10 in the fridge. Everything from mild Tabasco level heat to pure capsaicin extract and everything in between.

Love me some hot sauce.

Cholula < Tapatio.

Frank's red hot is delicious, though not spicy.

smoked a banana pudding joint...

used a lot of tapatio in my younger days... not sure what caused the shift to cholula but I do prefer the flavor of whatever pepper it is they use... can't remember the name of it at the moment...

Frank's was way too hot for me a few years ago. Made it up through Franks, Tapitio, and enjoying Chohula.

El Yucateco has stopped me in my tracks. That is where my line is now. Would like to find a green, lime and/or cilantro sauce at around 3000-3500 Scoville unit level.

Ram,
Any recommendations?

Sriracha... flavor and spice perfection, for me. Spicy enough with plenty of flavor.

Too hot ruins the experience, IMO.

Green sauce that's tasty and spicy? Hmmmmm... not very informed on green sauces.

Cholula makes a green sauce, too... and Melinda's looks promising... (Jalapeno, Habanero and green tomatoes).

No such thing as too hot IMO.

That said, I don't have a lot of experience in that SHU range other than the one you already mentioned.

Try checking Heatonist.com. They have some info and reviews on a variety of sauces, but check amazon before any purchase. Can usually save a few bucks that way

It's good, but hs a little too much garlic for me. The best sauce in Augusta, Georgia, right across the river is made by a Mexican restaurant Taqueria El Patron. They actually cook all their own food. They have a red mild which is made with the usual ingredients and a little tamarind that makes it great, a green hot and dark red very hot sauce that are all excellent. IMO what they make beats anything you can find in a bottle for people that like the flavors of hot sauce. For the folks only interested in the burn not so much.

I really enjoy hot sauce and salsa, but not too hot. For myself, the flavor of jalapeño, especially with tomatillos is far better than Habanero which does not taste good to me. Both sons enjoy much hotter food than I do, the younger one and his wife like very hot ppeppers. They grow ghost peppers, scotch bonnets and of course, the carolina reaper.

hard to beat tomatillo/serrano or tomatillo/jalapeno for a green salsa... lots of little variants to mix it up... garlic, white onion, poblano, lime are all great additions...

Sriracha is a staple in my fridge, but I've not been using it much lately since I started exploring the crazy specialty stuff.

Melinda's makes some fantastic sauces.

Marie Sharps is another one who makes great sauces that have wide appeal.

The sauce I've gone through the most of this year is Secret Aardvark.

Its a great tex mex habanero red sauce. Not terribly hot, but its got a bite. I'm on my 6th bottle this year.

Dirty D!cks is another one. Thats like a sweet apple habanero sauce. I'm on bottle 3.

Big fan of Yucateco too. This used to be my upper limit but now i can use it on breakfast. Though, I typically go for Louisiana style vinegar sauces like Crystal or Tabasco on eggs.

If you can get it (its a local ish sauce from Grand Rapids MI) Blis Blast is incredible for BBQ. Its aged in used Founders brewery beer barrels and is just the right combo of heat, smoke, and sweet. It's a thin runny sauce, goes great on pulled pork, chicken, turkey etc.

I keep trying to grow superhots but even my habaneros haven't been doing well the past few years. Only got 20 peppers off my 3 plants this year. First couple years I was getting at least 20 per plant.

Ghosts ive grown, but never got fruit. Bonnets I can't keep alive. Scorpion, reaper, and bhutlah I tried from seed this year and sprouted zero.

My younger son does have a grean (chili) thumb. I'm good at growing trees, weeds and mold, not necessarily in that order. He is currently located in Corpus Christi, Texas and that likely helps. He was able to grow peppers in Lexington, Kentucky and before that Columbia, South Carolina. He is moving to the souther part of Missouri in a few months so I suspect he'll have to make some adjustments or give up on some varieties, but he is talking about building a green house on his farm.

3 years ago I grew one Habanero plant,3 gallon bags full and I still have 2 in the freezer.I grew two Thai Dragon pepper plants last year ,2 gallon bags full in the freezer.These Thai peppers are perfect for spicing up hot sauce for those that can't handle real heat.I grab one occasionally and dice it up in my scrambled eggs........delicious but lively.I had 2 Hatch Green Chile plants last year.........I have more fire roasted chile's than I know what to do with.Bout 4-5 years ago I grew some Caribbean reds that were very productive,deliciously sweet and very little heat,wifey loved them so little to no heat at all.Pepper plants love heat so July and August in West Texas really gets them going.

About a year or two ago we got a new Doctor at work. Dr Namana. So of course I played that song and kept referring to him as menamina. It stuck.

Out in the garage with a smoke and listening to Fleetwood Mac.

Sure could appreciate a hammock and a doobie right now.

Recliner and a party short will have to do.

Love the UE boom Bluetooth speakers. Got two, one on my workbench and the other on my toolbox.

I think it sounds better than my headphones. Should, cause them bitches aint cheap.

Moved on to Ziltoid the Omniscient. Wife said im too loud, back to headphones in the garage.

Got my titlework/registration stuff in the mail on Friday. Tried to register the Ram online, but I can only do that if I want a new generic license plate. To transfer my current plate, which is an Indiana nurse plate with the numbers "MURSE" I have to go into the BMV. I sure as hell am not doing it on a Friday evening or a Saturday so I went today at 9am sharp.

Today I learned the BMV is closed on Mondays. Looked up other branches within reasonable driving distance and all are closed.

Tomorrow I have dr's appointments scheduled, hopefully I can squeeze the BMV in. Gonna be a long day of waiting. They fine you if you don't register by 45 days. I'm at day 33, go back to work on day 35 and get off on day 42 if something's screwed up I could hit 45.
