    I’m with you I regularly eat spicy food, and also grow my own scorpion and ghost peppers and add them into my cooking. I hate most hot sauces in general, as they’re all burn and no flavour. I have however found some that do buck the trend, but in general I don’t go for hot sauces too often

        I’ve had a couple spicy shark ones that have flavour. They also have the pure extract ones but I usually stay away from those

        There’s a Korean BBQ hot sauce that I think is really good

        There’s a matouks west Indian hot sauce I’ve enjoyed

        I’ve found that hot sauces that are a bit chunkier and have actual ingredients like small chunks of chilli or pineapple tend to have a more balanced flavor and heat profile though
