I like Texas Pete but can't reconcile that it is made in North Carolina. Doesn't stop me from buying it though.

I like Texas Pete! It’s good stuff, they always have it in packets at hotels for breakfast.

I like Texas Pete because it has a nothing special but decent flavor and is mild which makes it ideal for mixing it into ultra hot and tasty hot sauces, ones that are honestly too hot to enjoy but have a great flavor. Texas Pete is good reducing heat but maintaining special flavor.

That's genius! I've been dumbing the hot stuff down with ketchup. I'll try Pete's.

Thanks, I have always been a what if I did this sort of person. Takes a lot of experimentation and depending on the end result, butter adds richness and softens the flavor as well.

Dave's Insanity is my favorite sauce out of the 30+ I have now. The flavor is smokey but intense, but is too hot to enjoy. I made my own version of Peter Luger's steak sauce (mince the anchovies, don't puree) and added 2 large drops to about a cup and half. Those 2 drops made it too hot to enjoy with a steak.

It's made in Winston-Salem, His name was TW Garner, and it's mild

There was no other sauce here as a kid .... guess which Doughnuts ruled the universe too

Wow. Best use of the scientific method I've seen in a while.
