    Brought this home from vietnam, even when you open the top to use sweat comes on the brow, a tiny bit goes a long long way, but you'll always come back for more

    No matter what hot sauce I try, I keep going back to Frank's Red Hot Original Sauce. I think tit's the distilled vinegar is what I like so much.

    (My favourite BBQ sauce is Mic's Chilli BBQ Sauce because it is spicy and not too sweet).

    Anything with Carolina Reaper in it is going to be a treat, it has a respectable Scoville scale: of 1,569,300 on average.

    My go to sauce is currently hot peri peri. It isn't hot by any stretch of the imagination, but the addition of lime in it gives it a very nice taste.

    Can't buy that anymore. I kept going back to the fridge just for sausages to mop it up with. Not healthy just eating sausages and vinegar.

    While not specifically a sauce, I picked up some Franks Seasoning at the weekend. Interested to try it out. Open to suggestions

    Love Mic's Chilli, his BBQ sauce is to die for. Probably my favourite ever BBQ sauce.

    My favourite hot sauce of his is Trouble in Trinidad, hot but a lovely flavour.

    Jaysus i'm getting hungry even thinking about it.

    Just fried tofu with a dash of trouble in Trinidad, and a few sesame seeds. As you said, a little goes a long way. Num num.

    Wait, what? I have all the inferno sauces up to 7 chilli (it's mental), but didn't know there was a BBQ sauce!

    This is excellent.

    Really? Never hard that before.

    I know the big exported one is commercial US brand. But my understanding was that was relatively new branding of the traditional thai one. Sriracha it's itself comes from a town in Thailand where a few various families/companies claim to have invented it.

    I've seen that in Supervalu. Don't like that particular chilli sauce. The first time I encountered it was in this drink, the combination of chili and tequila was too much.

    That's the commercial US one I refereed to, couldn't remember the name but knew the bottle. It's the popular one, it's not the original, 1980 accord to that link. I assume that what TBR refereed to.

    Sriracha originally comes from the Si Racha in thailand, hence the name.
    Some who first disputes, but looks like 1932 according to wiki. Although that's the name. A recipe for a sauce of chilli, vinegar, salt and sugar.

    It doesn't show online, but 2 other brands look very similar. They copy the clear bottle and green cap.

    I get the flying goose one shown in that link, I get it in Aldi. Tesco do it too but I think its cheapest in aldi.

    A friend of ours brought us back this from a holiday once:

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Baron-West-Indian-Sauce-397g/dp/B0002DD8S6

    It is unreal. Hot and has a lovely flavour of chilli. Add to anything to make extra delicious and spicy :) We've always got a bottle on the go now.

    I think your man Tran is missing a trick not opening a plant in Spain or Portugal. First thing people find when they do a search on that sauce is his success story.

    Where can I buy Mic’s chilli BBQ? I bought direct online after finding the hot sauce in a restaurant in Budapest and stunned it was an Irish product.
