Cheap as dirt, has a richer and more complex flavor. A kind of smokeyness to it that tempers the heat very well.

Crystal is the other major Louisiana hot sauce. It is basically Tabasco but with smoother vinegar, less harsh.

Mr. Saucy Ghost is similar but much hotter.

You're forgetting the best Louisiana hot sauce, Louisiana. Also, I'm pretty sure Frank's is made in Louisiana, too.

Are they just trying to market to hipsters or does nobody realize vinegar and chilies and water do in fact lack gluten and wheat?

The average retard doesn't even know what gluten is. You can tell this by the number of people who use the word "glutens" unironically.

I can't stand vinegar based hot sauces, it's like they always use the cheapest, nastiest vinegar they can get. but I am ok with homemade ones that use a decent vinegar

Just had this stuff yesterday for the first time. Slightly hotter than Tabasco, but similar. Better pepper flavor overall and no bitter taste.

Grind up a bunch of chili peppers. Mix 'em with vinegar, garlic, and salt. Let it age for a few weeks/months.

Fellow experimenter here. I've been dissatisfied with store bought, overall. There are basic categories, it seems. First is vinegar-salt then a dash of heat (all Tabasco based sauces). Then you have the enchilada type sauce (Ortega/Taco Bell consistency, but still not that hot). Then upscale sauce that isn't worth paying 13 bucks for a tiny baby-ass bottle of stuff that was over hyped in the first place.

Then throw in the Asian side. Sriracha....garlic blasts, then salt, then heat...but with the consistency that you want. Sambal Oelek--almost perfect, but needs to be pureed a bit and have heat added....and on the flip, you can experiment with salsas...great consistency, but again--leads with onion, garlic, salt...and eventually heat.

So my personal mix is this: Sambal oelek and Ortega mix as a base. If you're going for more of a salsa then either add a hot salsa or canned diced tomatoes. But the key for me has been pureed Serrano peppers with a shit ton of cayenne powder. Mix up, and you finally have that ketchup-like, super hot sauce that doesn't emphasize vinegar and salt first....for fucks sake....

Vinegar is...overused at best--to me--and not the right base, at least. Ketchup at most basic; add vinegar to taste? But then have some corn starch handy or else we're back to vinegar salt water again....base first, heat second, spices last...for me at least. In that order, thick base (you name it) pureed serrano and cayenne ...aaah not much else.

This. I got a 2lb bag of freshly ripened Thai chilis for like $2.50 USD and chili oil for $1.50. It's all actually hot unlike most of what I get at the store, even in the ethnic aisles.

I find it confusing that you tell us to avoid a vinegar base, then recommend ketchup which contains a lot of vinegar.

This and ginger-scallion sauce are the best condiments.
