Hot Sauce

[darc]

I ordered some hot sauce last night...

One bottle of "Mad Dog 357 - Pure Ghost" and one bottle of "Dave's Insanity Sauce" :





Looking forward to it. I've had the Dave's Insanity Sauce (and it's good) and I've had the Mad Dog 357 Magnum (and it was awesome). I haven't had the Pure Ghost, so I hope it's good... I love ghost chili's so I can't imagine it being bad.

The Insanity sauce clocks in at around 280,000 scoville and the Pure Ghost is around 357,000 scoville.

for a bit of extra kick you should try out pure cap and da bomb.

can't remember the scoville rating on da bomb but it's supposed to be a little stronger than the pure cap. pure cap weighs in at a respectable 500,000 scoville rating and has no taste... just a little kick to spice up any recipe.

i've been wanting to try that pure ghost but have heard no reviews on it. keep me updated when you try it. daves insanity sauce is awesome. my dad has a little "deli" around the corner from him that uses daves and their own "secret sauce" that spices things up a bit on all kinds of things from buffalo meat to wings to venison, etc.. during hunting season it's definitely the "hot spot" for ribs and such. smothered, sweet and fiery... OOOOHH, YEAH!

I've had "Da Bomb" before... shits hot. I can take the Insanity sauce and Mad Dog 357 directly on a sandwich... Da Bomb Final Answer was painful though (1.5 million scoville).

It's strange that they named "Pure Cap" what they did since it's only 500k - Have you seen the Blair's 16 million scoville true pure capsaicin (capsaicin crystals)... that scares me.

no spank you... that's a bit much for almost all the folks i know. my one brother and maybe one puerto rican friend might be game. other than that i'd have to figure out how to eat the whole thing myself.

they should just get to the point and call that stuff scary sauce...

Yeah, I don't want to be anywhere near it.

For those who don't know Dave's Insanity Sauce, here's a pic of the back label ... i tmade me giggle :

"use this product one drop at a time" is certainly applicable for any sauces over a 200,000 scoville rating. i find that 1 drop in a BIG pot of chili (about half a turkey fryer pot) sends some folks straight to the bathroom, the medicine cabinet... and then to bed whining, lol.

of course, us hot sauce daredevils will do things like add habaneros, jalapeños, and regular hot sauce to a recipe... and then add like 22 drops of pure cap to each bowl of chili... then get the bright idea to go out drinking. i may not be as smart as you think i am...

anyway... i'd think by volume dave's might be a we bit more expensive than floor stripper. i'll have to confirm that later.

Wow you guys are just plain crazy!
On the other hand I think the picante medium salsa is a bit on the hot side

The Pure Ghost got here yesterday.... it's damn delicious! I love ghost peppers. It doesn't seem very hot though (definitely doesn't feel like 357,000 scoville). I was putting multiple drops on chips and eating them without much burn at all... just deliciousness.

I went looking for a scoville rating to confirm it but couldn't find one. This is the best I found and it just lists the rating of the cayenne's :
Ingredients: Distilled Vinegar,evaporated cane juice, fresh habanero peppers, Ghost Pepper, garlic, onion, 160,000 scoville cayenne pepper, spices and xathan gum.

And, of course, the Habanero and Ghost Pepper's should be hotter than the cayenne.

Either way, very delicious, my new favorite.

EDIT :
This place says 160,000 scoville (of course, that's what the cayennes are rated) : http://www.hotsauce.com/Mad-Dog-357-...uce-p/1419.htm
That feels believable to me. I think I mistakenly assumed that all of Mad Dog 357's sauces were rated at 357,000 scoville like the Mad Dog 357 Magnum... sorry for the disinformation. I'm just going to give up on figuring it out exactly and go eat some more : D

sounds great, but possibly a creeper sauce. there really is a lot of them out there nowadays... mild going down, but fire on the way out. keep that in mind if this is your first go at it... and let me know how things come out. (not in detail, PLEASE and thank you)

sounds like a winner... and fortunately i have something to supplement the heat.

[Klowne]

mmmmmmmmmm, sounds like something that I might have to try. I've never had any of these sauces but at the same time I never thought about hunting out the hottest sauces out there.
