Food, Drink & Dining Out The Hot Sauce Thread

[Miqar_Baqfhied]

Really dig my hot sauce. Pretty much cant have any decent meal without it.

The Chilli Festival held in Fremantle every year and the Good Food and Wine festival are good oppurtunites to pick up some different brands and flavours that arent always on the supermarket shelf. Chilli festival in particular is great. Except this year when it was 43 degrees.

Some of my faves Ive got on the go at the moment:


Pretty damn hot. Great for stir frys and pasta dishes. Awesome smokey flavour. Burn comes on slow. Great sauce.


Can get this at most supermarkets. Pretty mild. But it goes well with everything.


This is what they all use in America for hot wing sauce. Mix with butter and there you go. Mothers milk. My American mate sends a load over with his regular 'care packages'. Doesnt really go with much else to be honest. But, hell, who needs to eat anything else.


Mate brought this back from the US. Meant to look all scary win a cannister. Even has a waiver. But in all honesty it tastes like crap, and has some horrendous ingredients. And its not even hot. Bit of a laff.

Of course the good ole' tobasco still goes alright. My taste buds have become a bit unrresponsive to it, but still there is nothing like it on eggs and bacon on a Sunday morning.

Good thread, will watch with interest.

I'm a bit of a novice/pussy, but I like the challenge from time to time.

^ Im still pretty new to the whole game. Hopefully we get some good recommendations and stuff out of this.

this shit is out of this world.

can buy online or get it from the mexicali rose in richmond

http://www.mexicali.com.au/

it's the "ultra death" label that you're after which is the hottest they stock normally.

then after that you go into the reserve collection

I have hot sauce with lots of things. Goes great with pasta. On top of pizza. In toasted sandwiches. Even on a steak.

That was the biggest piece of gold I have ever listened to. Had it on the radio on the way to work. Sat in my car laughing my **** off and was half an hour late!

Man, I love hot sauces and chillis and what not. But damn they don't agree with me. Same with coffee.

Yeh I love a coffee, and need one in the morning, but the bloating and flatulence is almost untolerable. Sucks bawws.

Massive +1 for the Blairs Ultradeath sauce. A servo near where I live happens to stock it.

A few of my friends are hot-sauce connaisseurs, and I am now to a fair degree. My first experience with this was fantastic. I'll never forget the horrified look on their faces after I told them I skulled a fair bit of a bottle while utterly wasted. Luckily we had a driver but some of them were pissed about having to ruin their night spending time in hospital with me

If you add to much to a steak, you'll just destroy it. So it takes a bit of practice to get the optimal dosage. It's really nice though.

That there is actually a hotter version of this available from retail is some kind of hate-crime against humanity

Country town in Victoria - Traralgon - has a burger joint called Street Eats that make a 'Hell Raiser' burger, meant to be the world's hottest food.

Genuine heat and tasted good plus its free if you can finish it (normally $16).

Again, you must sign a waiver and the guy that makes it uses gloves and a mask for the theatre of it all - if you're not used to chilli don't try as a few people I know ended up on the poisons line and were found passed out at home (and they do shots of tabasco).

They top it with the world's hottest chilli and the whole burger measures in at 8.1 million on the scoville rating (heat index). For comparison, a jalapeno is about 3,500, straight Cayenne about 30,000 and disabling pepper spray abot 1.2 - 2 million. As you can expect, the burger hits your nervous system as much as your mouth/stomach. Last check, 19 people had gotten through it and one bloke comes in nad has 1 every week. Well worth a try if you're a chilli lover.

They also have some great hot sauces from around the world.

A mate of mine got a decent amount of Ultra Death Sauce in his eye during a particularly rowdy Mad Monday last week.

Not a pretty sight.

I like the heat and slow burn of a really good hot sauce. Has to have flavour as well. I hate stuff that's just ridiculously ****ing hot and the only point of it is to prove how tough you are.

Can't go without Tobasco on pizza these days

 

[Warner_Bros_FC]

This thread is making me hungry. Haven't tried much but are these better than the Nando's sauce?

 

[djrossie16]

My favourite combo is to mix Sambal Oelek with Greek style or natural yogurt. Makes for a good dip and is good with Chicken or Lamb wraps Goes really well with Fish and Chips.

But yeah if you can find it get it nice and hot.

Same. The painful burning sauces that come on straight away just for the point of being hot as hell don't really interest me. I like my sauces to actually have a good taste, and for the burn to come on nice and slow.

There's some great chutney like smokey flavour sauces around.

The ultra death sauce Ill have to give a crack though for sure.

Hot thourthes?

Yes please

But seriously, I have not gone out of my comfort zone of tobasco. I much prefer homemade tomato sauce or relish to anything hot/spicy, but you can't have homemade (the way I like it) while eating out, so I usually just put some tobasco on as it's the one sauce I like when I go out.

Don't like anything with actual chilli flakes, and tobasco is the hottest thing I have ever tasted. So clearly I don't get out much. What is a good sauce to recommend that isn't too hot, but sort of use as an 'apprenticeship' of sorts.

A thread after my own heart. I too put hot sauce on pretty much everything. Love the stuff.

Anyone living in South Australia needs to check this place out:

http://www.chilemojo.com.au/

I'm always in there. It's packed with authentic Mexican food fixins: dried chillies, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, refried black beans etc, but they also have the best hot sauce collection I have ever seen - including in the US. If you can't find it there, then chances are you're not missing anything. Friendly, too. I bought a couple of bottles of Frank's Red Hot earlier in the year, the owner asked my why, I told him I was making Buffalo wings for the Superbowl. He printed out the history of Buffalo wings and three different recipes for me just for the hell of it.

The 'Pain is Good' range of sauces is awesome. They're warm, but won't burn off the roof of your mouth. High quality.

Someone mentioned Blair's before. I find the Mega Death and Ultra Death sauces a bit much to use as anything but an additive in big pots of food, but the milder 'Salsa de la Muerte' is delicious. Hot, but you can still taste the smoky chipotle.

One of the hot sauces I'm going through at the moment is this Palmetto Pepper Potions 'Larynx Lava.' Not that hot, but a pineapple base and strangely addictive.

The other one I'm eating is Dave's 'Insanity.' I had been wanting to try it for ages and only just got around to it. Respectable heat. Actually, that's an understatement. It's at the top of my 'just put it on some pizza' threshold before I lose it completely. Too much of this and f*** me, it hurts.

But the one sauce I make sure I never run out of is Tabasco. It's like the German beer of sauces. Minimum ingredients put together right. Vinegar, chillies and salt. Goes with everything. I buy it by the gallon, literally.

For those in WA http://www.wildfirechilli.com.au/
They also will ship around the country

Just wonder if anyone else out there likes hot mustard, say like on hotdogs along with say ordinary tomato sauce?
