Pickapeppa Sauce takes us beyond the borders and into the Caribbean, where this sauce has been perfected on the island of flavors. You may find this sauce nestled in the hot sauce aisle of your favorite grocery store, but there's a uniqueness that makes Pickapeppa stand out from its spicy peers. This is one of the most interesting experiences to date and we can't wait to share the flame rating (or lack thereof) on this peculiar condiment.

For the first time in our show’s history, we revisit a previously reviewed brand. El Yucateco is back with the newest addition to their hot sauce lineup. We experiment with their Black Label Reserve Hot Sauce as it challenges our senses beyond taste and smell. There is much to overcome when it comes to this sauce but the flavor leads the way to a flame rating in which you may or may not agree.

What does the #1 habanero hot sauce in the U.S. have in common with local hot sauce start-ups and enthusiasts? They were once an up and coming hot sauce brand, too. Mexico is more than the post-pandemic hang out spot, it is home to some of the most amazing hot sauces in the world and El Yucateco Hot Sauce is one of the fortunate sauces to go from the kitchen table to worldwide distribution. Instead of believing the hype, we put El Yucateco’s Red Hot Sauce to the test and the flame rating is...

Deep in the heart of Texas we discovered Siete Traditional Hot Sauce and this health-conscious brand has claimed to conquer flavor without sacrificing good nutrition. This Whole30-approved sauce is part of a family-owned food company dedicated to setting the stage for better meals through grain-free, gluten-free offerings.
Could their traditional hot sauce be the change the hot sauce game needs?

Join us as we journey south of the border to experience the phenomenon of Guatemala’s finest, Picamas Hot Sauce. This crown jewel of spiciness is not without its flaws; however, we embrace this sauce with an open mind, and palate, to discover if the benefits of Picamas Hot Sauce outweigh the challenges.
Despite its popularity and online reviews, we focus on the aroma, texture, and taste of our own experience to determine the flame rating fate of "the most popular sauce in Guatemala."

Back in the bayous of Louisiana to explore D.a.T. Sauce from Morgan City.

As we base its greatness on aroma, texture, and taste we can wait to see where D.a.T. Sauce lands on the flame rating spectrum.
We also pause to celebrate three (3) digital culinarians who truly inspire LITS and beyond with their creations:
Get to know them and tell them Fave sent ya. Heh.

We have our suggestions on how to optimize this sauce, but also be sure to check out the Bulliard family recipes in their online cookbook.

We unleash the sweet heat of Tiger Sauce from Reily Food Company in New Orleans, LA. While the sauce contains a surge of spicy goodness, its ravishing looks and seedy texture tells a sweeter story.
