The TSC Hot Pepper Challenge

So you’re not doing fermented sauces this time @uacowboy ?
Not this time. I didn't like how much flavor is lost. If I can get my plants to do better next year then I may do a fermentation for the super hots and then fresh habaneros and other ingredients for flavor. This sauce also includes olive oil so with the vinegar you get a creamy emulsion.
 
Lost?? If you ask on the fermentation pages why do you ferment, 90% of the answers are because of the flavor you gain through fermenting.
You get different flavors. Some develop from the fermentation, others are lost. I prefer the flavors from the unfermented. Habaneros for example no longer have their sweet/citrusy flavors.
 
Didn't see anyone do the New Paqui Chip. Not bad. Here is a video from some of us a church picnic this summer.

Had some of this on my eggs this morning. It was really, really good, but I have to be sparing with it since there is sugar in the sauce. It is very sweet and fruity.

 
Put this one on my eggs this morning. I have seen this one on the shelves for years and overlooked it because gimmick labels are a turn-off for me. I decided to finally pick this one up because I am watching the "Hot Ones" back catalog and this sauce appears some of the early shows. The comments on the sauce peaked my interest, so I picked it up. I wish I had given it a try years ago. This is a very tasty damn good sauce with a much milder heat than I was expecting.


EDIT: I will add that the lack of heat is a minor drawback.
 
This one is good on eggs, if you don't mind the crunch of pepper flakes. It also has decent heat.
I have the "Extra Hot" version. Yum.


It pairs well with this:
which is mild.
