I'm a huge Hot Sauce, and Spices guy. I'm 30 years old and love cooking in the kitchen with a glass of whiskey, tequila, or red wine. If its Italian night I grab the wine. If its Mexican night I grab the tequila, if its steaks & lobster I grab the whiskey. It really just depends
I'm getting better and better in the kitchen. Trial and Error, and I fail ALOT, but I also succeed a lot.
So out of pure interest, what sauces and spices do you guys use the most? What is your GO TO hot sauce, and your go to spice(s)?!
Below have become my Favorite spices.. I actually stopped using Tony Chacheres. I ask because I spend more time in the spice section than anywhere else... Thanks!!
Slap Ya Mama Hot Sauce goes with anything and everything, Pizza, Tacos, Burritos It pairs so well.
Slap Ya Mama Original Blend Below seasoning for almost everything, has a perfect amount of Spice but not too salty like Chacheres. For example when I make a basic pot of buttered noodles when I'm lazy, I just use salted butter and this seasoning and it still comes out perfect, compared to when I used to try to get everything "just right"
Old Bay for various fish dishes, this is more mainstream
go to an indian grocery and the bags of spices and keep them in your freezer. especially cumin, ground coriander, and kashmiri red chili. the bags are super cheap and will last you like a year. they're awesome on grilled chicken with a little garlic powder and/or onion salt [Reply]

Interesting may try it along with their scotch bonnet sauce that gets pretty good ratings. The jerk seasoning and curry paste has caught my eye also. [Reply]

Yeah, that stuff is shit... I guess you can take it on a dare if you're a beginner in hot sauces and get that pins & needles feeling all over for a couple minutes, but it's more obnoxious than anything and doesn't taste good at all.
If you want real heat, might as well go with something like Mrs. Renfro's ghost pepper salsa.... you'll burn your face off and want to go back for more. [Reply]
If what you want is heat, when your flavors are already set, go with pepper infused sea salt.
It's everywhere now, and is just dried and finely ground peppers mixed in with sea salt. And the one I used takes much less salt than you'd normally season with. . . So if you're salting fries or mac'n'cheez or popcorn, or whatever, just a dash with the pepper/salt, and if you need more regular salt, THEN go with that.
This is what I use, and can vouch for, but I've seen it cropping up everywhere, even Walmart and Trader Joes

I've bought jalapeno infused sea salt for popcorn on Amazon. If Walmart carries pepper infused salt I am on it because crapazon is so iffy on whether the delivery driver chooses to get out of bed now days. [Reply]
