Bufalo Chipotle Sauce -
I use this stuff like catsup. Great! Nice after-bite, good smoky flavour, and not a "for the thrill" sauce - this is a geniune daily condiment whose use I heartily recomment for those who like food with kick! Goes on pretty much anything - fries, eggs, burgers, Wienerschnitzel, whatever.

Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce -
A lot of people talking about it here, and it's good. Thai. Less "flavour" and more "kick" - but it's still a good choice. Not as widely used as the Bufalo, but goes well on a number of things.

Dave's Insanity -
This one is for ****ing with people. I like it - but my entire GI tract seems to be lined with firebrick, or that stuff they make Space Shuttle ties from. One bottle lasts me years, but I do use it.

Great Red Shark -
Hawai'ian. Surprisingly good - in the same league as Buflao. Good flavour (not quite as smoky, but that's the difference between chipotle peppers and others - a chipotle pepper is a fully ripened and smoked jalapeno.) My son found this when he was on honeymoon in Hawai'i, and I need to order more.

Louisiana Supreme -
The label sez "Extra Hot," and it's serious about it! This one makes me slow down - which isn't bad for picking it up for fifty cents at Big Lots...

Satan's Sweat -
Just got a bottle of this at Armadillo Willy's. Not bad, based on habaneros, but still nice and smoky. Not as hot as the label leads one to believe (or maybe it's just me,) but I found it rather pleasant.
Of course, I'm a pretty odd duck anyhow...

Kajun Fire Sauce -
Cayenne base. Nice change - is different from the other peppers. Another Big Lots special (I think I paid a buck for this one.)

El Yucateco -
Another habanero sauce. Gotta admit, those Latinos do do peppers awfully well! I like this one (not as much as the Bufalo - I get Bufalo a half-dozen bottles at a time. But, EY is still good.)

Spontaneous Combustion -
Another habanero "thrill" sauce - this is one my wife's ex-husband got for me as a joke. Joke's on him - I love the stuff! I think Gary hurt himself trying it, he's still got his first bottle with a few drops missing (I'm on my sixth in the same timeframe.)

Arizona Gunslinger -
Yet another habanero - not quite a "thrill" sauce - I think it's got some chipotle in its makeup somewhere. Picked this one up at a burger joint near Flagstaff about a year ago, and haven't regretted it.

Wasabi -
Not typically regarded as a "hot sauce," wasabi is Japanese pickled horseradish. I use this stuff like mustard. It's not the easiest thing to find around here (oddly enough,) so I stock up when I see it.

I just wish I could find a decent Chinese hot mustard around here - most of what I've run into (including the various "house mustards") leave something to be desired.

So, what do you guys like? I'm always on the lookout for more!
 
I like Scorned Woman sauce. Has a bit of a bite.:flame:

Anybody have a good recipe for a hotwings sauce?

I'll have to look for that one.

It really depends on what I'm in the mood for. Do I want "hot with flavour," (I) do I want "cook it again," (II) do I want "I take a bite and you break out in a cold sweat" (III) or "I take a bite and I break out in a cold sweat?" (IV)

I haven't found very many to fit Class IV, but plenty of I-III...
 
I like good strong flavor with middle of the road on the heat. If it gets too hot, the flavor suffers.
 
What about Frank's Red Hot Sauce? I use that stuff like Ketchup. It isn't very hot but has tons of flavor.
 
It's OK but we have a local wings place the has a sauce that is way better.
 
I've become a fan of wasabi stirred in with mashed potatos....sans gravy. Goes great with roast beef and steamed frozen peas.

Only 357,000 scoville units, but this is the hottest thing I've ever had except for the time I ate a habanero pepper in a bet. I got a co-worker to try it(she says shes Indian, she can handle it) and Firehouse Subs stopped carrying that one on the counter after this girl went outside and threw up in the parking lot.
 
I have tried a few of these hot sauces...you guys have nice taste :-)

I work at a Hibachi restaurant, and they got me hooked on Tuong Ot Sriracha

Kick ass stuff...you can get it at most walmarts too. I use it on everything.

i've heard of that one. never had it though.

i had a few from hawaii that were delicious and then my girlfriend's room mate threw them out because they happened to be in her fridge when they were moving out :soap:

there's one i've had called "the hottest XXXXing sauce" and i couldn't put a finger on what they used to make it hot. it wasn't habeneros. those have a very distinct taste. it just tasted like hot but still had good flavor.
 
my favorite is crystal carolina which has almost no flavor and a decent amount of heat but by far the hottest hot sauce i have ever had was Mega Death. i had a drop on my finger to taste it caused my finger to get red and i couldn't tame the burn for almost 20 minutes. A frind of mine tried it and then wiped his eye which then proceded to turn red and swell. It is crazzy. http://www.hotsauceworld.com/blairmegdeat.html
 
Can't remember the exact brand, but we had one made with Scotch bonnet peppers that was extremely hot, but still had a good flavor.
