I like a lot of hotsauces and have quite a few on hand but I tend to reach for the basics most of the time
I like Cholua especially

But cant normally find it up here so I usually buy Tapatio
I also am a big fan of Siracha

What's your fav... and if you make your own please post
It depends on what I'm making and using it with. I do use a lot of Siracha but then I do a lot of Asian dishes. I also like Frank's hot sauce for some things but have maybe 50 different types as I kind of collect the stuff. I also have easy access to most of the known brands at the local Liquor Barn that stocks tons of this stuff. I buy to replace what I used and when I see a new one buy that too.

Exactly. Frank's for wings, Louisiana for jambalaya, Texas Pete's for chili, Valentina for Mexican food, Tabasco for cocktail sauce...

I don't like Louisiana as much as Crystal for anything Cajun. I also have 4 kinds of Tabasco, habanero, Chipotle, jalapeņo and the standard stuff and agree on Texas Pete's for chili or if I really want to kick it up a notch I might got with Dave's Insanity but in very small amounts. I prefer fresh ground horse radish in cocktail sauce mixed with chili sauce.

I like Frank's, Black Bay, and Ass Kickin Hot.

Franks and Louisianan, and Mc.Ilhenny Chipotle and Tabasco. I have 3 or 4 more in the pantry.
I'll use these straight on eggs. If I want more I'll put one of the Tabascos in with some corn or maple syrup, honey, and/or other stuff from the spice shelf.

I make my own in the summer using the peppers from my garden. I did a roasted habanero/citrus one last year that turned out pretty good. I call it "Hot as F**K"

I watched my husband tricked about a pepper. Was told it was mild and watched as within about 5 seconds, he turned from white to red and sweaty and gasping for breathe!!!! It was then he was told that tiny little pepper was a habenero!! ROFLMAO!!

I have at least twenty in my cabinet, but I always come back to four basic sauces.
Tabasco ( regular)
Tabasco (Hababero)
Cholula
Tiger Sauce
Of course, I also use a multitude of spices, powders, mustards, etc. Mostly hot. :chef:

I have Tiger Sauce, Tabasco, & Cholula. Also Lee Kum Kee Chile Bean Sauce and Wasabi paste and chinese mustard and horseradish.
They are my Twinkie in the fridge-they'll last 100 yrs as I can't do so hot stuff anymore.
Just alittle hot sauce in the pot of chilly.
And I can't give up chinese mustard or horseradish.

i keep 4 bottles at home, and the same 4 in my desk at work.
they are tobasco, frank's, sriracha, and louisiana brand.
i made one from garden veggies a few years ago that was very good, but it looked like diarrhea, so i called it "uranus rocket fuel".
orange habs, carrots, onions, herbs, salt, and vinegar, if i remember correctly.
