BTW, it makes sense that really hot water would help. Milk/bread serve to break up the oils or adsorb it and carry it out of your mouth. The hot water works just like it does with grease by making the oil easier to remove.

Hmm.. they have any taste to them, though? The best stuff I've ever had (not the hottest though) is Srirachi Hot Chili Sauce. That's the sauce with a chicken on the front, served at Pho places. Best tasting hot sauce I've ever had. It can go on everything!
No, trust me, hot water is the best. Its funny, cause when someone in Big Daddy's starts to hurt from the sauce, he runs in to the kitchen yelling, "Get me some of that hot water!!!"
we have a bottle of dave's insanity sauce at work, and the night of the florida state/miami game, we had some really bratty lil miami fans come in raggin on all of us and the like, well they asked one of my fellow servers if we had really hot wings, so of course, my coworker said yes, thinking 'i'm gonna show these lil sh!ts' and rings in the wings and goes to the back to grab the insanity sauce and drops about 15-20 drops into wing sauce mix. he proceeds to serve them and the guys eat them up, inhaling one or 2 each, then suddenly downing every glass of liquid on their table, along w/ many of those that were near them. it was the funniest thing to just walk by and see them sweating and panting and dying, but they were determined to finish the whole bunch and show that they were 'real men' i think they finished us out of all the milk we had in the restaurant, at least 4 or 5 gallons b/w 3 of them. everytime we walked into the wait station or one of the servers came to the bar, they couldn't stop laughing. it was such great revenge

Well in that case cant we just squirt some dish soap in our mouth? HEHE!
No the hot sauce does not taste good imo, it has only a hot feeling & the flavor is bypassed.
I never understood the point of getting hot sauce just for the "heat" factor...it's supposed to add flavor, but "hot" is rarely equal to flavor. In fact, it dulls your taste buds....my brother often says anything that isn't "hot" tastes bland, even when it's loaded down with flavorful, but not "hot" spices.
I have a pretty wide-ranging array of hot sauces, and the best ones aren't usually the hottest ones--for instance El Yucateca Caribbean-style XXX--it's pretty hot (6000 Scoville, I think), but it really doesn't taste like anything....it just makes your tongue burn. I added some to my mom's Jerk Chicken recipe and it didn't taste any different.
OTOH, Tamazula and Valentina aren't nearly as "hot" but they add such a great flavor.
El Yucateca's Chipotle sauce isn't hot at all, but has such a distinct flavor...the best thing to happen to chili since cinnamon.
There are also good non-vinegar-based hot sauces that are high on "hot" but still have good flavor....
To each his own, I guess.

No worse than pepper spray
Reminds me of the comedy skit with that Mexican guy who talks about when the cops spray someone down in the Bario.
"That sh!t don't work on a latino! Sh!t man, we eat that stuff for breakfast. Literally! They spray that stuff and everyone come's out in the neighborhood like 'Hey! Who's having a barbeque?' "
Ah, the infamous heat tasting contest.. scoville rating is the real key. I've had 130k Da Bomb and it was plenty hot for me. I'm sure over 50k scoville and we can't tell a difference.
Anyone know where to get it?
Mohotta.com
I've placed a few orders there and haven't had the need to make anything much hotter. A quarter teaspoon of Da Bomb in a vat of chili will make it 4 alarm for sure. Make sure to have a couple glasses of milk handy if you aren't sure of yourself and this sauce.

I agree with yakko and jzero that hot sauce should be for flavor and not just that heat factor. Not that theres anything wrong with it, but I like to add hot sauce to make food spicy but I dont want the hot sauce to be the only thing I taste. Tabasco and Louisana are my sauces of choice, because both compliment all kinds of foods. Louisana is more sour than it is hot though, so I like Tabasco more
My favorite hot sauces are ones that actually add taste and spiciness. I don't understand those 10++ sauces because there's really no point to them other than to show off your unbridled machismo and stupidity.
My favorites for TASTE:
Sriracha
Tabasco
Cholula
Purgatory
Cat Scratch Fever

This took me awhile to edit but I think it fits with the topic...I know it is one of my favorites.
Notes From An Inexperienced Chili Taster Named FRANK, who was visiting Texas from the East Coast: "Recently I was honored to be selected as an outstanding Famous celebrity in Texas, to be a judge at a chili cook-off, because no one else wanted to do it.
Also the original person called in sick at the last moment, and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking directions to the beer wagon when the call came. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy, and besides they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted. Here are the scorecards from the event:
Chili # 1: Mike's Maniac Mobster Monster Chili
JUDGE ONE: A little too heavy on tomato. Amusing kick.
JUDGE TWO: Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.
FRANK: Holy sh!t, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway with it. Took me two beers to put the flames out. Hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.
Chili # 2: Arthur's Afterburner Chili
JUDGE ONE: Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight Jalapeno tang.
JUDGE TWO: Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken, seriously.
FRANK: Keep this out of reach of children! I'm not sure what I am supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to walkie-talkie in 3 extra beers when they saw the look on my face.
Chili # 3: Fred's Famous Burn Down the Barn Chili
JUDGE ONE: Excellent firehouse chili! Great kick. Needs more beans.
JUDGE TWO: A beanless chili, a bit salty, good use of red peppers.
FRANK: Call the EPA, I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Barmaid pounded me on the back; now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting sh!t-Faced.
Chili # 4: Bubba's Black Magic
JUDGE ONE: Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.
JUDGE TWO: Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili.
FRANK: I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Sally, the bar maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills; that 300lb. b!tch is starting to look HOT, just like this nuclear-waste I'm eating.
Chili # 5: Linda's Legal Lip Remover
JUDGE ONE: Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.
JUDGE TWO: Chili using shredded beef; could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.
FRANK: My ears are ringing, and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from a pitcher. It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. F*ck those rednecks!
Chili # 6: Vera's Very Vegetarian Variety
JUDGE ONE: Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spice and peppers.
JUDGE TWO: The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and garlic. Superb.
FRANK: My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that slut Sally. I need to wipe my arse with a snow cone!
Chili # 7: Susan's Screaming Sensation Chili
JUDGE ONE: A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.
JUDGE TWO: Ho Hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. I should note that I am worried about Judge Number 3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.
FRANK: You could put a f*cking grenade in my mouth, pull the f*cking pin, and I wouldn't feel a damn thing. I've lost the sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili which slid unnoticed out of my f*cking mouth. My pants are full of lava-like sh!t to match my goddamn shirt. At least during the autopsy they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painful. F*ck it, I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, i'll just suck it in through the f*cking 4inch Hole in my stomach.
Chili # 8: Helen's Mount Saint Chili
JUDGE ONE: A perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili, safe for all, not too bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.
JUDGE TWO: This final entry is a good, balanced chili, neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge Number 3 passed
out, fell and pulled the chili pot on top of himself. Not sure if he's going
to make it. Poor Yank.

azazyel: LOL excellent read, I was looking for that too
I agree that hot sauces have to have flavour to them and not just heat. I've tried much hotter stuff, but my favourite hot sauce remains to be the milder spontaneous combustion. The hotter stuff IMO is simply for bragging rights

haha,
I tried some of that Possible Side Effects once, it wasn't that hot.
The pure caps are the way to go for strict heat.
but I prefer some flavor as well. it makes it better, a good mix of the two is best

<< Has anyone ever tried dave's insanity sauce?? ... I had some fun times with that stuff....
A story that must be told...
I remember one time we got ahold of a bottle of dave's and we were just digging into it. About the four of us including my buddy Steven. Anyways... we were only tempting a drop on a sandwhiches and it was pretty intense. Next thing we knew we started daring each other how many drops could we take on the next slice of ham and cheese... Ok... now Steven was the one who had been holding the bottle and the sauce was starting to get all over the place...
Here's the killer...
Steven without knowing it scratched his balls.... Now... Dave's sauce... burns when it touches skin... Next thing we knew... he was running around the house screaming... my f*cking balls.... somebody help me.... ahhhh!! He looked soo messed up... he almost tripped on himself...
now that is a sad fate for any man...
Im not sure if he was crying or not... but i wouldn't have been suprised if he was cause... that was a lot of screaming... >>
ROTFLMAOPIMP!!!
OMG!
Bhwahahahahahahahahaha!!!
I would PAY MONEY to see that.
<<
<< I need to wipe my arse with a snow cone >>
My favorite part.... >>
Mine too..can't say I haven't felt like that before after an all you can eat buffalo wings night.
