my two favorates are lousianna hot sauce and smart [censored] hot sauce I use them for different flavors the la hs is good on almost everything except eggs and thats when I pull out the smart [censored]! makes them taste so much better.

I really like Texas Pete's.

What is your question?

Home made is best!!!

I'm a fan of Crystals. Yum!

Frank's Red Hot is good stuff!

Cholula is right up there as well........

Cholula !

tabasco for bottled, and "julios" for salsa - from Brookshires.. its the best salsa type sauce I have ever had!

Dave's Insanity sauce.

X2 on the home made. Fresh veggies and peppers boiled and blended together makes for a nice aroma and good eatin'!

Dave's is definetley the best for heat - If youa re looking for a great combo for heat and flavor, try "El Yucateco Red Habenero". It has a GREAT FLAVOR and packs some pretty good heat, as well.

I eat it on everything. $1.99 at Albetson's and every Taqueria I've ever been in sells it too.

BTW, don't try the El Yucateco XXX Hot - the flavor is off and the heat is right there w/ Dave's insanity!

Best jarred salsa in stores is Joe T Garcias. IMO perfect balance of heat, seasonings and fresh veggies.

For a "not-so-hot" sauce that is very tasty on Pizza Bagels, hamburgers, hotdogs, fries, etc....try a bottle of....
.
TIGER SAUCE. We keep a bottle in the truck and it makes every roadside meal a treat indeed.

It is great for those that like a lot of flavor without the scalding-your-mouth-and-incinerating-your-posterior-orifice heat!

you northerners need to get to San antonio for some good salsa, hot sauce Houston doesn't compare, dfw is a far cry
when talking about red sauce I think it taste bad, among other things, I'd rather put cheapo Pace on my food
I'll have to mail y'all some samples

Take two cans of Mexican Style Stewed Tomatoes. Add fresh onion, cilantro and jalapeños. Put in blender.
Now that is good.

Been there, wasn't impressed. There is plenty of good sauce (and mexican food) around here.

the places that are big and fancy or on the river walk suck, I'm talking about westside hole in the wall Jalisco native cocinas, where the thought of sanitary never crossess your mind once the first bite is savored, after eating that kind of food, mi tierras and all the others seem about as tasty as taco bell, their homemade hot sauces and salsa will make you wonder why you didn't taste it sooner

I'm sure your right. gotta be a local to know the right spots.

Try Big Dawg Salsa. They have an awesome line of hot sauces and are made right here in Keller, TX. I'm friends with the family and they run a great business. They're in quite a few stores around here.

Another thread in this forum convinced me to try Sriracha sauce. It is now my top favorite bottled hot sauce over tabasco, cholula, looziana, and the others. It is in the asian section at the store. Try it you will like it.

there is a chili garlic sauce at the asian store that is great too. can't think of the name, but it also has a rooster on it.

Is this it? Have not tried it.
Huy Fong Sauces

That's the one. Great stuff!

I think that my wife has some of that in the fridge! Gonna have to try it.

I slathered some on my scrambled eggs this morning. YUM!

yes, its particularly good on eggs!

I like Yucatan Sunshine.

My dad goes through Dave's Insanity at a frighteningly fast pace lol.

He must have no stomach left. That stuff is harsh!

Viva la westside....All the tourist places are way over rated. A small hole in the wall is the only way to go.

This is probably it: Sriracha

The chili garlic sauce is different.

That is it!

Sriracha

Good stuff with a kick!

Anyone ever tried Blair's Mango Habanero sauce? It's awesome on eggs. It's got a great mix of heat and flavor. By far my favorite!

I had never heard of the rooster sauce before in Texas till i moved to Hawaii a few years ago. Went to a vietnamese place here for pho (soup), and you put that sauce in there, i thought thats the best sauce ever. Now i put that on everything!
Broke da mouth as we say here...

Pho is fantastic. some rooster sauce, some hoisin, man, you just can't beat it.

Louisiana is my favorite on anything fried. Santava xxx on other foods.

Louisianna and Cholula

Once played baseball for a team from matehaula mexico in the NABA in Dallas, our coach had a homemade recipe from there and it was awesome. It's been years since then though. Does this count as an out of the way place??????

Cajun power! Because spice should enhance the food, not mask it with hot.

el yucateco green habanero sauce, tastes good and it's hot. Chipotle tabasco is also good.

Here is a recipe for a home-made tabasco type hot sauce. Been meaning to experiment with it but haven't got around to it yet.
