if you don't like tabasco you're probably using it on the wrong food and in the wrong amount. like yeah it sucks on a burrito. it's ubiquity hurts it's rep obviously.
never found a use for cholula or tapatio
I could use some recommendations for spiking the heat on curries/Indian food without messing with the flavor profile too much. I’ve recently been using the Trader Joe’s ghost pepper chile flakes, but I don’t think it’s the final answer
How about regular old cayenne pepper?

I've gotten into putting 2 small drops of Mad Dog 357 into my burger mixture. It's enough to just give your burgers the perfect amount of heat without affecting any of the flavor. Highly recommended.
tabasco is so bad. my parents used to eat it on everything when i was a kid. they put it on our wooden kitchen chairs to try to discourage my brother from chewing them so i could smell it while i was eating. awful.

Tabasco is great for fish and chips and for things like grits as said above. I don't remember Texas Pete therefore I haven't found a use for it nor do I miss it so I voted that one

i found their crimson special reserve to be way too salty but their ghost pepper & blueberry is one of my all time favorites
how strong is the blueberry flavor?
it has more of a tart/peppery taste with a hint of the sweetness of a blueberry and the white wine vinegar definitely stands out
i mainly use it on stuff when i don't have time to cook like pizza and chicken tenders
i probably wouldn't use it in something like chili but i'd definitely put it on a salad
i don't know if you've tried anything from http://dirtydickshotsauce.com/ but for comparison the bravado gp&b is much less fruity than the dd original and their peachy green. both of which are great imo but if you don't enjoy sweeter sauces you might not like those
tobasco reminds me being a lad and lathering slices of ham up with it and just eating hte hwole package of ham that way. i miss that shit man i lvoe basco. but it is bad compared to the other hot sauces. except valentina's, that doesn't pack enough kic
gunna use this thread to buy a bunch of hot sauces to try out

We really can't overlook this story. What in the world?
Did your parents acknowledge Tabasco was terrible by putting it on the chairs or were they making the wood more flavorful for your brother? I'm so confused
My friend always brought a bottle of Texas Pete to school and we put it on pretty much everything we got from the cafeteria and it made a lot of otherwise inedible stuff much better so I have fond memories of it. I voted tabasco because it's ruined everything I've ever put it on or at least made it worse. I can't remember the last time I even used anything other than the green tabasco.

we had this kitchen table set made out of soft, unfinished wood because my dad had purchased it years ago with the intention of finishing it and never gotten around to it (this was the case with our house too so we grew up with cement floors and framework stairs and raw cut-out doors). the chairs had horizontal panels across the back and my little brother’s favorite pasttime was to sit on the chairs backwards and scrape his front teeth down these panels. the intent with the tabasco was to make it spicy so he would stop, but he enjoyed it more. apple bitters didn’t work either.
and yes, if you asked it he might claim that it’s because he’s irish. somehow. despite the rest of our family not being irish.
