Thunderbird Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 I like my chilli sauce and this is my current favourite: Slow sweet burn. It's a Thai one from the Oriental supermarket at Eastville in Bristol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimfire4969 Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Best one I have found is Susies hot sauce which I picked up on a trip to Antigua where it is made. A great flavour and very hot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFN Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 I don't really like the sweet chilli sauces but I'm addicted to Caribbean type sauces, in particular Encona Hot Chilli sauce - it goes on anything savory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted May 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 I like encona too. There's quite a burgeoning chilli industry in the uk nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ack-ack Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 I like encona too. There's quite a burgeoning chilli industry in the uk nowadays. Encona with Balsamic , dash of water, olive oil and a bit of garlic salt and black pepper makes a cracking dressing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossEM Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Tried something called 'Insane' Sauce once. Highly unreasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatcatsplat Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) The true Caribbean sauces (and i'm not including reggae reggae here) are all a little too sour for me and the tabasco ones all just taste of....er....tabasco (barring the totally awesome new chipotle one)- I'm big into chilli ketchups and relishes where you can taste the base ingredient and then the get the buzz when the chilli kicks in, but tend to make them myself cos they're so easy to do!! Red onion jam with a hint (!!!) of habanero will go down an absolute storm at any barbecue or just simply whizz up some ketchup or barbecue sauce with some finely chopped birdseye chillis and a clove of garlic. It's not about heat, it's about flavour first. Edited May 28, 2012 by Fatcatsplat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I agree, that's why I like the one in the pic. I tend to make my own BBQ sauces avd always make sure I have stuff like mustard powder, lea and perrins, chilli sauce in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njc110381 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I like the Encona stuff too. It's a nice level of heat without getting silly. South Devon Chilli Farm do a nice one made with naga chillies, it's hot but tastes good too. I think the best I've had is one I make myself to the recipe of an old black guy (can I say that?) who sells chillies at a local car boot sale. He talks the talk of someone who comes from that end of the world and clearly knows some old traditional mixes from back home. It's pretty much a half carrier bag of mixed chillies and a good sized root ginger pasted in a blender and then topped off with either olive or sesame oil. Stick it in a large jar and it keeps for months in the fridge and tastes absolutely lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njc110381 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 (edited) Fresh chillies. I buy a huge bag of the things from this guy and any I can't use before they start to look past their best go into paste. I generally make a good 1lb jar full and it last me ages! Most of it ends up spread thinly on toast with some cheese melted on the top. Edited May 29, 2012 by njc110381 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 That sounds pretty darn good. I've just stuck a bottle of that Tabasco Chipotle sauce on the sainsburys order to give that a go too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicykillgaz Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 As a general sauce I like maggie chilli/garlic sauce nice but not too over the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 There's a village next to where I grew up called Upton Cheyney and there's a big chilli farm there nowadays. In fact I'm pretty sure my brother knows the bloke who runs it. In fact I think they have a chilli festival too. Just checked, 8th September.

smig4373 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 (edited) The hot sauce i like(ed) is 'Daves gourmet insanity sauce...'..Make a lovely hot dip when mixed with mayo and lemon juice...Only seen it for sale in a handfull of shops.You can get it on ebay.... Word of warning tho...ITS DANG HOT... Available here with many other chilli/pepper sauces Edited May 29, 2012 by smig4373 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziplex Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I bought some Mad Dog 357 sauce a while back (not cheap) and made some stuffed peppers for the eldest daughter who 'loves' hot stuff. After eating one she curled up on the floor in front of the fire and groaned for some time before going home and suffering even more the following morning. I could just about manage a tooth pick taste but that was it. Truly awful stuff if you're not that way inclined, I gave it away to a guy in work who used it for making hot mayo for his chilli beef...he loves it.

Brown Sauce Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Encona have recently launched an extra hot version and oh yes it hits the spot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted May 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 My old favourite kebab house in Bristol used to do two different kinds of chilli sauce, both home made. A mild one and a hot one. I used to have a ladlefull of each on mine, boootuful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziplex Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Thats the stuff...They say if you can see it,you've got to much... :lol: It's evil gear, we kept the bottle for a while just to laugh at visitors who came over and were convinced to 'try that......it's lovely' I did take it to a customer who thought he knew everything about hot sauces and merrily mouthed approx a teaspoon full from his finger, he disappeared so quick out of the office to get a drink and was quite irate when he came back ....comical In hindsight I obviously put way too much in the brat's peppers, poor kid suffered for a while, she sticks to Encona type sauces now.
