Love this sub and it changed my life. Now, I'm making a variety of salsas at home every week.
Buuuuttttt……. I love the spicy red sauce I get from the open late, fast, grade D meat using, Mexican places where I get carne asada burritos. For context, I live in Colorado so examples are Taco Express, Taco Star, Monica's, etc.
Any ideas on how I can replicate at home? Alternatively, any canned or jarred products I can buy from a store?

Salsa Roja with Chile De Arbol, some add more liquid than others.
You can do like 2 Roma 15 arbol 1 garlic clove and salt + like 1/4 cup.of water and adjust
I like mine to have some vinegar so I add 1 tbsp of distilled white vinegar and sometimes a couple of puya peppers
This looks very similar to red sauce from our Mexican fast food joints in Arizona. Found one that could be it. Someone in another Reddit post tried it and said it was like 95% perfect lol
2 cups of water 5 oz tomato sauce 1/2 tablespoon onion powder 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 15-20 grams Chile de árbol 1/2 tablespoon salt
Put everything into a pot until boiling, then simmer until the peppers are rehydrated. Mix in a blender and you have Filiberto’s (our Mexican place in AZ) Red Sauce. Enjoy!
Looks like it has tomatillo seeds in it. But I could be wrong.
