Hot sauce..

[Hasty8]

Who here has an undying love for hot sauce?? I know I do.. Pizza tastes gross to me now with out loads of chilli peppers, especially the fresh ones you crush in your finger those are actually hot compared to the others..

And then hot sauce.. hah it goes with everything, chicken, steak.. Everything.. Damn I love hot sauce..

Oh dear god no. Not unless I'm going to replace my anus and rectum with a steel tube. I like it mild please.

I don't have an "undying love" but I like the stuff. Probably has something to do with growing up eating "Soul Food" or something. Anyway, I would put either hot sauce or honey on just about eveything except cereal.

yup Daves sauce is crazy! Made me cry for a few hours. Wowzers!!!!

As I recall one of the ingredients in Dave's sauce is Pepper Spray (or at least the pepper extract that gives pepper spray it's kick).

a scoville rating in the millions as I recall (not sure how much ends up in the actual sauce though)

The ingredient that makes hot sauce "hot" is prevalent in just about all peppers and assocaited veggies "jalapenos, habanerros and the like.

It's called capcasin(not sure on the spelling) and this is the primary ingredient in pepper spray.

The Scoville rating works like this, I believe.

As many times as the sauce is diluted in a sugar water mix until the "heat" is no longer felt is the rating when tested amoung a panel of five tastes. As such a sweet bell pepper would have a rating of zero because it has no capsaicin where as pure capsaicin has a rating of almost 16 million because one part of the stuff would have to be cut into 16 million equal amount of sugar water to get rid of the heat.

Police grtade pepper spray has a scoville rating of 5.3 mill while "The Source" sauce from Original Juan Speciality Foods has a rating of 7+ million.

Nice to know that some people are actually eating foods that are hotter than police grade spray.

Theres this endorphin rush sauce that this local hot dog place uses on the endorphin rush hot dog. if you eat the whole thing you get it free. Daves insanity sauce is tolerable, i've eaten the stuff off my finger in a liberal amount as my brother has too and he could barely finish this hot dog and he was sweatin like a pig and dizzy when he did. but now he has his picture up but he musta been hatin everything later that night.

But the best hot sauce hands down is Tapatio.

she promptly downed half a thing of salt to ease the brun.


fun fun

Salt? I never heard of that to kill the burn...edit - I heard baking powder is good too

Milk or yogurt is what I use if I get in over my head.



"..it burns burn burns, like a burning ring of fire. The flames go down and the fire goes higher." I have no idea if these are the right words to the song.

go check out
Dave's Pepper Palace
The new owners are redoing the site but when it comes back up, they will have tons of hot sauce. To walk into this place makes your eyes water. They literally burn...

Get some of the Red Lightening. Stuff rocks. It's not super hot but the flavor is awesome.

i LOVE spicy foods.
Daves Insanity sauce is only the breaking the threshold. The have a whole series, Daves Ultimate Insanity sauce and Daves Private Reserve which comes in a case resembling a coffin and is labeled with a number kinda like small barrel whiskey/bourbons and such

Currently it takes me about 5 months to finish a bottle of the Private reserve.
If someone can recommend something that can top that I will gladly take it, Im always up for a new kick my butt sauce.

Add on: Oh yeah, Ive eaten some of that personal defense pepper spray stuff as a bet. Funny stuff, tasted awful but not spicey, but it made my eyes begin to tear up a bit.

why not just chew on some glowing embers or something.

Nothing like burning lips and a slow sweat building on your nose.
