What’s your go to? Mine was Danny cash 1%er but it looks like it’s no longer being made. Looking for a replacement. Nothing with extracts I’m not that hardcore
Looking for something savory but light in flavor but with big heat, preferably easy to find on Amazon or locally.
There’s a danny cash ghost reaper sauce that looks perfect but they want 12 dollars shipping on a 12 dollar bottle which is a bit much
Torchbearer garlic reaper is fantastic, the garlic flavor is really strong but you know exactly how that’s gonna affect the dish so it’s easy to use
I can also recommend just buying a bunch of habaneros/bonnets/reapers, throwing them in a blender with a little salt, and letting it sit on a shelf for a week until it smells like good pickles
I’m a big fan of bravado hot sauces.
I think their spiciest flavors are the Aka Miso Ghost Pepper, the Black Garlic Carolina Reaper, the Garlic & Arbol Moruga Scorpion, and the Ancho Masala Scorpion Reaper.
For something a step down I like their Ghost pepper & Blueberry as well as their Serrano & Basil.
Their bottles are about $12-$13 for 5oz. I wouldn’t pay more than that tbh.

I really really like Secret Aardvark but that’s only like 5/10 hot
LaoGanMa!
Excellent rec! I have that one, and while it is absolutely delicious and merits a place in every chili afficionado’s pantry what I am looking for here is hotter, and not quite so bold on the flavor profile
an “add two drops to your soup to crank up the heat and season a little” kind of sauce
Nice, this might be the way. I’ve never tried it.
How long does it keep, and does it need refrigeration?
