I love spicy food and outside of home or family members homes where I can doctor it myself, I seldom find food at restaurants that are spicy enough for me.
Well a girl at work knows this and while eating at a place she enjoys called Tijuana Flats she got me an early Christmas present. A hot sauce called Endorphin Rush.
Image Holy Shite Batman! This stuff is soooo hot. I tried just a very small dab on my finger to taste. The flavor at first was very good, but then the heat just jumped all over me and lingered. Whew! Haven't tried it on any food yet but am looking forward to it. Read more about it here;

One of my favorites is Crystal Louisiana Hot Sauce.

Not overly hot but very flavorful and I just keep adding more of it if I want more heat.
Would be interested in hearing what some of the favorites of my fellow inmates are so I could see about trying some in the future.

I guess I could say I 'collect" hot sauces -- I've got something like 30 different ones in a kitchen cabinet.
Call me a traditionalist -- for the really hot stuff, I like Dave's Insanity and Blair's various "death" sauces best. Very hot, but still some flavor. I have lots of others that are very good, but i always seem to reach for Dave's or Blair's first.
A good runner up, not quite as hot, but still enough to be dangerous to the unsuspecting, is "Orange Crush" -- very good flavor, high heat.
I also like "Magma" which is a very thin clear sauce with habanero extract -- you shake it up to mix and the extract slowly gathers together like a lava lamp. It's especially good on pulled pork sandwiches!
For "everyday" mild hot sauces (when cooking for guests, for example) Cholula, Tabasco and Franks are good. Also Trader Joe's has a very flavorful, not too hot jalepeno-based sauce.
I have a bottle of Pure Cap, but I'm scared silly to even open it.

I'm simple...Louisiana hot sauce off the shelf at any Meijer/Wal Mart or Franks Red Hot Original(the Buffalo is good as well with chicken).
To me, anything that is so hot you can't taste what you're eating is plain dumb.

Paging Ron!
My favorite currently is Blair's After-Death Sauce. I like it on eggs in the morning and in pepping up salsa.
Damn good stuff!

for some good heat with flavor, go with "capital punishment" (so good on a slice of pizza).
you want something that will make you cry, go for "vicious viper".
now we know blairs makes the hottest but that shite aint even edible! ha ha

Franks is my favorite milder one. I also really like Cholula and Sriacha as well.
I can handle retarded heat, but just haven't really ever gotten into the various sauces.
I love grilled serrano's, I've had a few of those totally F my world up.

Sriracha is a great sauce but its more for hot dogs instead of ketchups or stews or sometihng. And I prefer the sriracha with the garlic and chili flakes over the squeeze tube paste one. It's also got too much sweetness which is great on hot dogs like ketchup, but wouldn't use it on plain old meat. Don't get me wrong, it has great flavor, but it isn't hot enough. YOu like really hot Asian sauces with hella flavor?
try this bad boy

If you like it hot, there's nothing like Dave's Insanity Sauce...it comes in a coffin if that's any indication.
