Your favourite chilli sauce is?

I have tried all sorts but Encona is still my overall favourite, though I do like the extra hot version.

I liked the Reaper one they came out with, although it wasn't as hot as I expected.

Randomly saw a sauce I hadn't tried before in Tescos the other day - Yogiyo Chilli & Yuzu Korean hot sauce - very fruity... but needs moaaaar heat.
 
I know they're not sauce but those flamin hot Tangy Cheese Dorito's pack quite the punch, I'm struggling to finish one packet they're a weird kind of hot, feel the burn but no sweating or running nose/eyes and as they're crisps it makes snacking them difficult as the heat becomes relentless

tbh I haven't watched much of the zoom interviews

Funnily enough I have also failed to finish a packet of those as well. It took me a week of only taking a few at a time to finish it eventually. Wow, they are hot!

Perhaps they are to help us not to snack on crisps?
 
I have had so many over the years. Tabasco original is still my favourite by a long way. Their habanero variety is also decent, though I wonder if it's less hot than it used to be.

Encona is good, I may pick up the Xtra hot variety since I can't remember what it's like, they do a Carolina Reaper variety but I swear it's not as hot as it should be. Probably just marketing.

Then you have East End Green Chili Sauce which is devastating. Amazing stuff.

My wild card is this stuff called El Yucateco Habernero. It took me a year to finish the jar. It was utter dynamite. I could only add a quarter of a teaspoon to a dish, and even then it would blow me away.

green tabasco sauce.

I'm interested to try this, apparently it's rather mild but I'm curious.

I'm a longtime fan of the standard Encona west indian hot pepper sauce...have noted the other varieties on the shelf and will give them a try
 
Encona for me too as an everyday go to.

Laast year I brought back some king Naga chilli's from northern India and made my own sauce. Man that stuff had a kick.

Swiftly disappeared though.

I got a bottle of that from Mex Grocer. It's lovely, but not what I would call a hot sauce. I have quite a few splashes on my tacos or chilli, love it.

I made some Zhug from scratch the other day. Absolute heaven with a huge Picanha beef from my butchers very rare. Also excellent on fried eggs!
 
Ah, I didn't realise they did so many variations. I have this one which does still say hot sauce on it so I'll just shut up :p (It's lovely and fruity, well recommended).

Yes, I absolutely love a good habanero sauce or curry. I miss the old chicken tikka phal my local used to do, bags of habanero, fruit and flavour [not just tipping a jar of hot curry powder in]. One of the best curries I've ever had.

That Caribbean version looks amazing.
