What’s Your Daily Go-To Hot Sauce?

[Alan]

I’ve been experimenting with different hot sauces, and lately I’ve found myself reaching for the Tabasco Chipotle. There’s something about that smoky flavor that just makes everything better. I know it’s not the hottest out there, but it adds a nice kick without overwhelming the dish.

This got me curious about what everyone else keeps on hand for their everyday meals. I’m talking about those reliable sauces that you never hesitate to grab when you want to add some flavor — the ones you use on anything from breakfast burritos to late-night pizza.

Do you have a hot sauce that you can’t live without? Something like Cholula, Sriracha, or even a local favorite? I’m really interested in finding a few new staples to keep in my fridge. What do you reach for when you want to add some heat without setting your mouth on fire? Let’s hear your favorites and what you pair them with!

As the commercial says, "Franks, I put that *&%)$ on everything!" Literally too! I love it on my breakfast omlettes, tacos and just about anything that needs a little kick. I came up to OR from living down in Louisiana so, I do like some spice.

Good old Tapatio works for me.

My favorite is Taco Time’s Original hot sauce. You can buy it in bottles from the restaurants.

I really like the Habanero Hot Sauce from Trader Joe's. Great flavor, and hot enough to notice, but you can still use it on everything.

I have experimented too. But I've found myself backtracking and re-settling on Tabasco.

Depending on what it's going on, Tapatio, Cholula or Sriracha.

Frank's by a mile for just one, but I really like others mentioned above.

Garlic cholua, green cholua, and tapatio are my go to's. Tried Franks and like it on wings cooked in the hot air fryer.
