    Morning all. Anyone know of any shop where I can buy Bring the pain hot sauce?
    I've got in Lidl in the past but haven't seen it in ages. I'm tried a few asian shops but no joy. I don't really shop online so if anyone knows of any shops selling it I would appreciate it.

    I'd imagine it's a private label product named specifically for Lidl so you won't find it under that name elsewhere.

    Edit: yep, just checked my bottle. Lidl GmbH. You'll just have to wait til the next time they have it in as part of a special, it was never a regular stock item.

    Tkmax/homesense tend to have lots of whacky chilli sauces. You might find another you like.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,499 ✭✭✭Yester


    Thanks for the replies. I don't think I'll be spending 16 quid on a bottle. Might stock next time they come around and try selling them on e-bay though.

    Good to know it is a Lidl product. I can stop searching other shops for it.

    I'll have a look in Tkmax/homesense. Any recommendations for a similar kind of sauce. A lot of other hot sauces I have tried have no kick whatsoever compared to Bring the pain.

    If you're in Cork, maybe Mr Bells' in the English market?

    It's jalapeno and vinegar based, you'd make hotter yourself after a trip to an Asian supermarket.

    Bring the Pain is back in Lidl and just in the nick of time!

    What is good to eat with this sauce??

    It doesn't have much to offer taste wise as it is overpoweringly hot on it's own. I add a bit to soups, stews, stir fries etc to give them a kick.

    agreed-not much going on taste wise,but,man,does it have a kick to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,364 ✭✭✭Man Vs ManUre


    I got this today. Let’s see how hot it really is!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭GinSoaked


    Missed it :mad:, only shop once a week in Lidl on Wednesday now, any other time I'd drive straight in to get a bottle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,364 ✭✭✭Man Vs ManUre

    I got it in Fortunestown, close to the Bakehouse granola/choc chip cookies which are delicious.
    There is also a habenero sauce which is much milder and sweeter. And another one again which I didn’t get, a lime and something sour sauce.

    I ordered about 6 bottles off this crowd lately. It was free delivery if you spend €20.

    Only tried the of foam and fury one so far. It is very very tasty and had a fairly decent kick without being stupidly overpowering.

    I bought the “extreme” one. Haven’t opened it yet.

    And there's a good beer to go with it http://www.galwaybaybrewery.com/offoamandfury/ :D

    It’s more than a good beer to be fair.

    Very expensive mind you but worth it the odd time for a treat. Hops galore!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,407 ✭✭✭OldBean


    If you're Dublin based and want an alternative with kick, Fresh usually has a couple of bottles of Blair's Hot Sauce, going from their mid level to some of the hottest they do.

    Fresh Smithfield usually has a good stock of them.

    Enjoy!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭GinSoaked


    Thanks guys managed to get some today. Have four drops of it now in a lunch time tomato and basil soup. Great for the price good and hot but no subtlety of flavour, basically its hot and thats about it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,122 ✭✭✭✭Jimmy Bottlehead


    OP, if you or anyone else is still looking, Lidl in the M1 Retail Park outside Drogheda has loads of Bring The Pain in stock. Picked up a bottle this evening but haven't tried it yet.

    I found it a little disappointing.

    Some seriously hot **** on there!! :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,584 ✭✭✭BohsCeltic


    Try making your own.

    And the best tip for blending ingredients is not to use a blender. Go old school with a mortar and pestle. It gives a much nicer flavour. I like a bit of a kick spice wise but some of the stuff i have tried left me in a bad bad way lol.

    I got a bottle of Scorpion Slammer, made with Moruga scorpion chilli.
    Tasty, but one drop in a pot is enough !

    Where did you get that?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,065 ✭✭✭otnomart


    Where did you get that?
    (I live in Continental Europe, got it in a local shop).
    It is from an English brand: Tubby Tom's


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,376 ✭✭✭Neowise


    They are currently stocked in lidl. Just picked up 3 bottles of it at €1.29 a bottle, far cry from €16, as my last bottle is near empty.

    I do believe not every bottle is equal, as the first time I bought 'bring the pain' hot sauce, it really wasn't that hot, but a friend seemed surprised, and i tasted his bottle when i was over at his, and was suprised by the heat, and so I bought another bottle myself and sure enough, it was liquid fire too. Hopefully all three of the bottles i just bought have the extreme stuff in them.

    They are stocked as the black lid in a 3 colour sauses mix, green orange and black. green is jalopeano, orange is habenero, and 'bring the pain' in black.

    Plenty of green and orange bottles left, but the black lids are in much shorter stock in my local.

    Got a bottle of this today. It’s just liquid heat and nothing else. Don’t think I’d get it again

    That's the beauty of it. A couple of drops will warm up any meal.

    But you can also have heat and flavour.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 542 Mod ✭✭✭✭TheKBizzle

    That’s what I like about lots of different ones is that there is a depth of flavour. I didn’t rate this one it was just heat and nothing else, not even a vinegar kick.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,386 ✭✭✭schmoo2k

    3 drops in the Lidl Chowder - yum!

    I disagree - but it is very easy to use too much and then you lose the flavour.

    I saw this sauce in Lidl Moore St. Dublin today, but I didn't get any, since the bottle I got last time is still half-full. A little of that stuff goes a long way. (I've had the Jalapeño before - nice but goes too quick - and I'm trying the Habanero, which is somewhere in between the two extremes.)

    Death has this much to be said for it:
    You don’t have to get out of bed for it.
    Wherever you happen to be
    They bring it to you—free.

    Does anybody know if this sauce is still available?



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,499 ✭✭✭Yester


    I had a look in Lidl this morning but it seems to be gone. It does come around fairly regularly though, so I'm sure it will be back.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,499 ✭✭✭Yester


    Yup, saw it in Lidl again yesterday.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,920 ✭✭✭✭Dial Hard


    It's been in with all the BBQ stuff in my Lidl all summer.



  • Registered Users Posts: 222 ✭✭OnlyWayIsUp


    I see some YouTuber is saying that this stuff is 7.1m scoville units? That seems like a lot of burn if true.

    I have a bottle of this stuff at home and it really is hot. A couple of drops is enough to liven something up!

    I would love to get a proper scoville reading on Bring The Pain. It's the only one I've had so far that is too hot for dipping, but it is dynamite in soups and stews. A bottle lasts me a year as a meal portion of anything requires only 1 drop, or 2 if feeling feisty. Any more overpowers the grub. It's funny because the jabanero they sell beside it could be drank by the glass.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,499 ✭✭✭Yester


    Haven't seen this sauce available for a while and supplies are running low. Any sign of it anywhere?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,376 ✭✭✭Neowise


    My stock is out too. Haven't seen it in ages, but I am not a frequent Lidl shoppper, so would love a heads up if it returns.
