I remember my grandmother would make salsa using a molcajete (mortar & pistol) with fresh tomatoes, serranos, garlic, and onion. She would roast all this stuff before grinding it in the molcajete.

Matuks calypso sauce or hot sauce. For a dipping sauce on lets say thin
cut strips of BBQ flank steak cut cross grain I use Pico Pica a touch of Tabasco mixed with your favourite BBq sauce.

OOOh.......that sauce combo sounds killer!!!

KC Masterpiece and Pico Pica HOT. But why the Tabasco? For the vinegar zing? It would certainly be hot enough with the first two.

Depends on how you like it. orignally a bit of honey was also added. It all depends on what kind of BBQ sauce you use.
Some are sweeter than others some have a tomato base.
The Tabasco is there to up the heat if needed

La Viuda de Sanchez, chili de arbol. Bufalo salsa chipotle. La Valentina is popular slopped on top of fresh cut mango slices with a few dollops of jugo de limon.

Like poor Texican chili con carne, really bad salsa can be made flaming hot to try and hide the taste.

OK, so this isn't from Mexico, but...I really like Marie Sharp's Habanero Hot Sauce from Belize. Yum. Love the flavor...heat, too, but not overwhelming.



Whenever I hear that rainy, chill wind blow. I think it may be time to head for Mexico. Tengo que obedecer mi corazon!

I like BUFALO Chipotle Hot Sauce

It's got lots of flavor and is good used many ways...on eggs, in a quesadilla or to spice up a cheap frozen burrito.

But, my favorite thing is to make a delicious Barbacoa taco or burrito filling with it....I add it to some Hickory Bbq sauce, along with some lime juice and left over Chicken or Roast Beef. Just warm it all in a skillet until sauce is reduced and thickened and meat is more tender. You don't need a lot of the Bufalo to give it a delicious flavor. Start with a couple of Tablespoons of it and add more if you want more intense flavor.

You can also add it to Bbq sauce and use it when making BBQ chicken, tri-tip or ribs on the grill.

I love cooking..and kitchens.


I'd like to 'stir the pot' a bit here..







One thing I have learned with regards to ..ah...certain 'ordinary' foods.
Here goes...I can eat any garbage, provided I sprinkle it with enough ketchup, mustard, Tobasco sauce, cayenne pepper, hot sauce..or any other condiment which destroys the original flavor of the dish.

Sometimes HELL'SFIRE IS GOOD to mask the blandness of that burrito or chili. Of course it destroys your hair in the process....;)


However, now and then a good sauce is welcome..even though Co-pilot says, "These are ALL POISON."

For my money, this one has a unusual and great taste.

Quick plug for this kicka$$ sauce! While it won’t knock your socks off due to a blazing chili burn (thank God), it will do that for a great full flavor profile – It has the perfect combo of sweet and tart from the raspberries & smokey spice from the chipotle.

For an amaaaazing spread, simply mix this sauce with cream cheese and serve with bagel chips. The bagel chips add the final missing salty component, completing the flavor profile and lighting your mouth up… initiating some serious salivation! And for a gourmet touch, you can easily make your own bagel chips: Just slice up a few bagels into rounds, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt, and bake them on a cookie sheet for about 15 minutes at 350 degrees. This raspberry chipotle spread and homemade bagel chips combo is a crowd pleaser for your c-cktail parties. Sometimes I would just eat it plain... :rolleyes:


As for where to find this tasty sauce… I bought it at an Albertson's in SD. Hope you enjoy this as much as I do...and to hell with the diet! (..just don't mention to Co-Pilot that I posted this...shhhh)







I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Tapatio. It's cheap, doesn't interfere with the other tastes and doesn't have the vinegar base that Tabasco has.

Sriracha is also my favorite hot sauce. First introduced to me at http://obnoodlehouse.com/ , in Ocean Beach.

For salsas, I like sampling homemade recipes. Just like beer and wine, there are too many salsas out there to enjoy. Gotta try 'em all.

Tabasco sauce has an interesting history. Made at Avery Island, Louisiana. Was first sold in perfume bottles right after the Civil War. The guy went on the road and sold 600 bottles the first year, the rest is history.
