Your favourite chilli sauce is?

so very few comments on how you are using chilli sauce ? is that on take-aways or in from scratch dishes ?

Purchase tabasco to add in scratch chilli, but otherwise adding it on other regular dishes, say mac&cheese/curry/pizza/lasagne would be weird ? no
it is not the same as a drop of HP with mac&cheese

I put hot sauce on pretty much everything.

marinades, sauce, dressing for salads etc.
tonight for example I will add habenero sauce to how made coleslaw and have that with some pork chops with more chilli sauce on it.
and you shouldn't add anything to mac&cheese you heathen :p.

its a shame chilli sauces are so expensive.
only supermarket one, but enjoying this atm https://groceries.asda.com/product/...entic-african-style-chilli-sauce/910002217768
 
I really like Frank's Xtra hot, nice and vinegary, great on chicken wings! :p

I grew some chilli's this year and put them in the freezer, I was planning to make a sauce out of them but haven't got round to it yet.

I know it's not really a chilli sauce but if anyone likes jerk chicken, check out Dunns River Jerk seasoning (in the world food isle at Tesco) it's amazing!

I always fall back on Franks red hot original, its definately not hot but the flavour is just sooooo goood
I like it so much I often have a teaspoonful as a "shot" when I am adding it to recipes :)

Plus you can buy it by the gallon (US) which gives an indication how much I get through ;)

No joke, I bought the large bottle from Tesco (around 350ml I think) and I got through nearly half the bottle in 3 days. :D :D
 
For a while now, I've been using Bigstan's special hot sauce (that's me, by the way). I got so fed up with trying to find a hot sauce with decent heat and decent flavour. Most I tried were either stupidly hot with no flavour or too vinegary. I had a glut of homegrown Habaneros a few years ago and decided to have a bash myself. My standard sauce is made with Habaneros and mango with a few Nagas lobbed in for a bit of heat. My current one is called Bigstan's extra special hot sauce as I didn't have any Nagas so I lobbed in some Trinidad Scorpions - lovely, it is. I also made a Caribbean version recently with Scotch Bonnets and pineapple with a splash of rum. Seems to be popular with my friends and work colleagues. My local pub even have it on the menu on one of their burgers after I gave the chef a taste. I give them a litre every time I make a batch and they give me a burger and a couple of pints.

i'm growing Carolina Reapers this year. Bit of a poor show but I should have enough (when they ripen) to make a small batch with them as the heat producers.

You ate a raw reaper? Fair play they are one of the hottest chilli in the world. I know somebody who thinking he was a big man ate one. He was throwing up, rolling around on the floor. :p

Yeah 5 of us have eaten them, not my finest hour and I've still a "bubbling" in my belly, I can assure you I won't be eating another, the female of our crew disappeared for 15 minutes.

Oh and let me put a little myth to bed, milk does nothing I repeat nothing to quell the 'burn'!!!
 
Nandos extra hot sauce is my favourite dipping sauce. It doesn't seem very hot to me despite its name. I am not a fan of the super hot chilli sauces with skulls and stuff on the bottle, too hot for me to enjoy the food and they don't seem to taste very nice.
