Good heat. Really bad flavour, very odd taste. Almost tastes like pepto bismol lol.

    Extract based sauces are all about the heat.

    I actually like the flavor. It has smoky aftertaste that I dig, but I only ever use it in stews like pozole or menudo.

    I use this as an adder. Put 2 drops in ranch and get hella hot ranch for my pizza. if i have a good flavored hot sauce with no heat, 2 drops of this and get hella hot hot sauce. Making Chili and want to add heat without messing with the flavor, 2 drops and get hella hot chili.

    I also learned of Dave’s the hard way, bought a bottle 10-12 years ago without checking the ingredients. I usually do a “shot” (few ml), within a few minutes I was sweating profusely and hiccuping like crazy. I’ve only ever used it in chili and tomato sauce and even then only a little bit.

    Their scorpion sauce is good. I think it’s the hottest they make that’s not an extract sauce.

  6. I personally skip all the Daves brand sauces

    If you’re going for something this hot, you’re trading in flavor for heat. These usually taste like crap.

    I once dropped a bottle of this and it splashed all on my foot, i had leather shoes on as i was going to wedding, managed to clean em pretty much straight away, regardless, my foot felt like i had burns by the end of the day, i was nearly in tears.

    I used to put a cap full in my canned soup. Definitely a nose clearer.

  10. Whatever happened to Dave’s Insanity salsa? Used to get it from a local farmers market but it’s not available anymore. Can’t find it online either.

    We used this for pranks all through college. Would wipe it on passed out friends lips (don’t worry we all did it to each other, and in good fun). I eventually started eating it regularly. Agreed doesn’t taste great, I like the ghost pepper one, though.

    I like the garlic based sauces.
    I used to do grow blog on (https://thehotpepper.com/) and they have a lot of awesome brads that took off drom their site.

    Theres a ton of literature to make your own sauces, watch that ph.

    But yes most extracts taste like poo.

    Put this on a sub onetime back when firehouse subs had a really big selection of hot sauces and it fucked me up. My ears were ringing, my head was gonna explode, it made me sweat, I was literally pacing around my apartment freaking out. Hottest thing I’ve had since I first had Melinda’s ghost pepper sauce but at least that had a really good flavor

    Excepting the heat, the two primary flavors of this sauce are pennies and crushed prednisone

  15. Agreed. I threw mine away. This is nothing but a novelty sauce.

    I remember my dad bringing this home from Louisiana when I was a kid. We used to dare each other to eat it for fun and burn our mouths off.

    Still remember the label saying it was good in chilli and also “cleaning driveway grease stains”.

    dave’s insanity tastes bad. only good for adding heat to stews, sauces, etc…

  18. This fucking sauce.

    When I was a kid, maybe 10’ish. My dad bought a bottle.

    We went to my grandparents house and my dad busted out the bottle to have with lunch. We had hot links. My grandpa was sitting there, saw the sauce, and proceeded to empty a quarter of the bottle on to his hot link.

    I did a drop. My brothers did a drop. My dad did a drop. We all took a bite and instantly had regrets.

    My fucking grandpa finished his hot link. He was beat red. He was sweating. He was mad. But, he finished it.

    We weren’t a spicy food family. We were just a don’t waste food kind of family.

    My buddy has the same sauce and when we hang out we usually dilute with ranch or ketchup for the chicken nuggies

    I used to use a toothpick to add the tiniest drops of this to bites of my Taco Bell burritos.

  21. Strike1delta

    Yeah and it used to be the big dog of heat, but that was years ago before any crazy shit was made. It does taste like ass though.

  22. darealstiffler

    Gotta go natural peppers, that extract shit is so gross. The extra heat isn’t worth it.
