We got some Louisiana sauce. We got some Florida sauce.
Let's see how they stack up.
What's up Everyone! Welcome back to Tasty Sauces.com.
I'm your host Billy D. Today were keeping things spicy.
We're going to try out a couple different brands of hot sauce. We got the Panola Pepper Company.
This is a Louisiana based
hot sauce company and they actually sell more than hot sauce. They got
bottled peppers and all sorts of other stuff. They have been around for 30 years.
They were kind enough to send me this bottle to sample.
And then we got Iguana Tropic Thunder. This is a Half Moon Bay Trading Company. They have been around
20 years also.
They're based in Florida but they also got a partner
in Costa Rica. I believe this stuff is actually made in Costa Rica.
So definitely want to give these guys a look out. Now, checking out the Panola
Pepper Sauce, I was just looking at the consistency
it's a little bit thicker than what a Tabasco would be.
Everything is real pureed in there. But as far as ingredients,
they got a pretty simple recipe as they got cayenne and jalapeno poppers,
vinegar, onion, sugar, salt, and spices. So
a pretty simple recipe but they have been around for 30 years so probably so probably
pretty good stuff.
It has got a little heat smell. It also has got a little sweetness also.
Probably comes from the sugar in there.
Its got a strong vinegar taste in there.
Not a whole lot of heat. This would probably comparable to a
Tabasco but maybe just a little thicker and a little bit better than
that stuff.
As far as the 5-star rating, I would give this guy
3.5 out of 5. Not bad but not the best stuff I have had.
Just a little bit up there from Tabasco and as far as
the spicy scale, it's really not that hot.
I'd probably give it a 3 on the 1 to 10 heat index scale.
Now checking out this Iguana Tropic Thunder
Its got a cool little lizard on the front smoking a cigarette
As far as the ingredients, its got a little tropical feel to it.
Its got jalapeno peppers, habanero peppers,
then its got a little mango, passion fruit,
lime juice, cane sugar, and a few other things in there
Should be interesting.
Now this stuff smells a little hotter and the
thickness with a lot more fresh peppers in there so
Let's see how this one is.
Put a good amount on there.
It has a nice little sweetness from
either the mango or the passion fruit.
But yes it has got a little sweetness to it. The heat is not really all that bad.
I put a pretty good amount on there.
Check it out.
I am digging this stuff though.
Not bad Nice little...everything is real fresh.
As far as the five-star scale, this one is a rock solid 4.
As far as the spiciness/ heat index scale, I would probably give it a
4 on the spiciness scale. So you definitely want to check these guys out.
The Iguana Tropic Thunder won today. Definitely want to check them out.
