Let customers speak for us
I first found this sauce at Lowe’s foods and love it. It is my absolute favorite sauce my husband likes it too, I only share sometimes. It has the perfect heat a punch at the end of a bite but doesn’t overwhelm. The flavor is so good a little smoky but not overpowering. I put it in everything…
Bought this @ a shop while @ SF Fisherman’s wharf. Added this and some garlic salt to boneless chicken thighs, perfect combo! Flavorful chicken with a bit of spice! Highly recommend! Will be trying it on shrimp next.
Fans of smokey and hot deliciousness rejoice, for you have finally arrived at the Valhalla of truly tasty, flavorful and complex hot sauce!
Great sauce. Habanero flavour hits first and then smoke flavour followed by tomato and onion.
Veey unique, delicious sauce. Had just grown lemon drop peppers last year in my garden and this is the perfect sauce to showcase this tasty pepper
I think this is a really kick-butt sweet spot for add delicious smokey hot pepper flavor to things. Love it on eggs, burritos, tacos. The smokiness really adds a ton of depth. This one I use more more than my favorite one (Slow Death) because its much more flexible. Also, my girlfriend loves it, she does enjoy hot things but sometimes mainlining scorpion sauces is too much for her but this is really nice. I really love that Rising Smoke is making fantastic hot sauce (and is local too!)
Thus is my go to for adding heat with character to my Cajun-leaning style
A nice subtle heat, not too hot, VERY flavorful! Excellent
Real garlicky, smoky and excellent flavor. Not too hot so everyone enjoys when I put it in a recipe.
Here’s some ear candy for you. These are awesome sauce! 😃
Best sauces ever! Flavor is truly amazing and ill never buy any other brand. Cant wait to check out more of their products!
This mustard is on a different level. I am using on everything! Hot dogs, egg rolls, pretzels, every thing! I love it!
I tried this for the first time in Raleigh NC at a Christmas event. We have all been hooked since. We have tried several different sauces and spices and all have been wonderful.
The flavor of all four sauces in the Inferno Pack is outstanding! I am into serious heat in my sauce but it needs to taste delicious...not just burn. These 4 sauces give you 4 levels of "upper" heat that just taste good. These are the only hot sauces I buy.
