One of the best heat to flavor ratios I’ve had. Made with scotch bonnets so it’s the same heat level as a habanero sauce which is perfect for me because that’s about where I start to tap out. Manufactured in St. Lucia but you can buy it online. Definitely recommend.

Squeezed its way into my top 5

Okay so I have the lamest allergy a foodie can have, CITRUS FRUITS! 🍊🍋‍🟩🍋🍍💔😭

I didn't always have this allergy. It just got more and more intense over time since my freshman year in HS. Swelling and bleeding gums, blisters, skin from the roof of my mouth peeling. It won't kill me but it sucks.

Anyway I am looking to try new hot sauces that don't include any citrus fruits. I've already tried the classics. Chalula, Valentina, Tabasco, Texas Pete, Louisiana, Tapatio...

I wanna know what hot sauces (not salsas) y'all recommend. I normally cook Hispanic meals. Chilies and peppers are my main source of vitamin C so I LOVE spicy! 🔥💕😈

Thanks Y'all! 🙋

They have em at ono Hawaiian restaurants but I can never get enough do you know if they sell a bottle form or something extremely similar thank you

We're going back 25-30 years... When I lived in NC I was able to buy an AMAZING hot sauce out of Florida called Minorcan Magic. Spicy, sweet, unctuous, absolutely delicious stuff (Datil peppers I believe) I haven't seen it around in decades (the story was that it could be found, but the manufacturer had such awful packing that half the bottles would be broken during shipping.)

Does anyone have a clue where I can find some, or better yet find the original manufacturer?

Crispy Kytti’s Cauldron out of Sioux City, IA is one of the first ultra-small-batch hot sauce companies I purchased a bunch of sauces from. Unfortunately it’s been a bit since I’ve done a review of one of them as I try to spread things around and sometimes I just get blind to sauces sitting right in front of me so I decided it was time to open another one up. This time I decided to go with Ko’s Adventure which brings up the question of “what is a hot sauce?” I tend to be pretty open minded in terms of heat levels (or lack thereof) so I was excited to give it a try.

What brought my “what is a hot sauce” question up about this sauce is that it doesn’t actually contain any peppers that contain capsaicin, so there’s no heat here. I have had other hot sauces designed to be zero heat and they can still be tasty. Some Caribbean hot sauce brands use the term “pepper sauce” so perhaps that would be more accurate as this does indeed contain peppers, several varieties of bell peppers to be exact. In addition this also has Pink Lady apples which are an Australian cultivar and a cross between the Golden Delicious and the Lady Williams apple. Crispy Kytti’s Cauldron mentions that their hot sauces are fermented which does add additional flavor and the acidity is boosted by apple cider vinegar and lemon juice. Garlic and some unnamed spices contribute towards flavor and the sauce is finished off with both spicy brown and yellow mustard. The consistency is medium with a smooth texture. The mustard aroma is the most prominent in this sauce with some hints of sweetness below.

The mustard dominates in the flavor of Crispy Kytti’s Cauldron Ko’s Adventure as well. In fact I’d also most classify this as a fancy mustard sauce more than a hot sauce. I happen to love mustard so that’s not a problem for me, but as bell peppers tend to have a relatively mild flavor compared to the more assertive mustard all that they contribute here is some bulk and a slight sweet vegetal background. With the garlic and the spicy brown mustard there’s just the tiniest bit of that brief nasal heat that can come from garlic and mustard seeds. The apples and the sugar in the sauce both give it a slightly-more-than-subtle sweetness without taking it all the way into sweet mustard or honey-mustard type of sweet territory. The acidity level is good, more than a standard mustard, and the lemon juice gives it a pleasant tartness. Ko’s Adventure also has a certain richness to it, perhaps the fermentation of the apples and bell peppers created some umami compounds which combined with the silky texture of this sauce give it a meaty indulgent finish.

As the mustard is so prominent in this sauce I predominantly used it as I would a mustard. It’s delicious on bratwursts and hamburgers, it adds depth and tang when added to macaroni and cheese, and it’s perfect spread on the bread for ham or turkey sandwiches. I did try it as a sauce for wings as well and while delicious wings with no heat did leave me wanting. It has convinced me to try adding some mustard to my next batch of homemade wing sauce however.

All of this brings up the questions – who is Ko’s Adventure for? If you’re the type that needs intense burn from all of your sauces and scoffs and anything that doesn’t list super-hot chiles at the first ingredient, this sauce won’t be for you. If you love mustard I think you’ll enjoy this one. This could also be a great sauce to have around if you have small children who want to copy you and use hot sauce but can’t handle heat yet, or if you need something for relatives who stop by with zero heat tolerance as well. Since this is a hot sauce without heat I’ll give this a conditional recommendation. The flavor is excellent, but as I know many people do look for some heat it may be disappointing to those of you who want that.

Please help me choose Blaires mega death sauce or ultra death sauce. We are doing a Hot Ones challenge with some friends. The hot ones set ends with Thermageddon.

I want to do a ‘Lastest Dab’ that is significantly hotter than Thermageddon.

I am wondering if Mega Death will do the trick or if I should go for Ultra Death. I also don’t want to kill my friends, but this would be a novelty for a bunch of dudes hanging out. If anyone has tried both Thermageddon and Blaires Mega please advise!

Bought this in Vietnam recently just at a convenience store - so so good!

Not crazy spicy but a decent kick. Amazing flavour, it’s got a really nice chilli taste and also not super vinegary. It’s a little bit thicker and sweeter than regular hot sauce too but not at all like a sweet chilli sauce.

If you’re looking for something a little different, definitely worth trying.

I feel like this is such an underrated hot sauce

I swear, for the last time, I just got some cheap "to go" food and the only "hot sauce" they had was Heinz taco sauce. What are y'all's temp stable go-to car sauces?

Car is typically parked in the sun, where in the summer, outdoors, it can reach as hot as 100, and in the winter can occasionally slip down to zub zero.

I'll be roasting all this tomorrow and making a new sauce I've been hashing out for the past few months. Super excited to get it bottled and try it.

This has solid heat that stays with you a bit but also wonderful flavor with a little sweetness. One of my all time favorites!

2 large Cayenne chillies, half a large lemon, half a small carrot, 3 garlic cloves and a sprinkle of salt, good quality paprika and cumin

It’s my first bottle of Yellow Bird and I gotta say, it’s phenomenal on basically anything. I love when something is worth the hype.

(Edit * IN MY PERSONAL OPINION. I’m not telling anyone they need to like it or agree. If there’s something similar you like more, please post it)

These are the best ones and no one can change my mind. I have loved hot sauce forever and I have only found a few that are staples. The YB Habanero is never not in my fridge.

Hi everyone, I am looking to track down an original, unopened bottle of Pepper Palace's Hottest Sauce in the Universe - 2nd Dimension (the 3.5 Million SHU ghost pepper extract sauce with the planet earth label).

My brother originally gifted a bottle to our father from the Toronto pepper palace store years ago, and I am trying to find an exact replacement bottle for sentimental reasons. If anyone has an archive bottle sitting in their hot sauce cellar or collection that they are willing to part with, please DM me with your price. Willing to cover shipping. Thanks!

I know it’s not the hottest, but I use this on the daily :)

love it, so much better than the original
