Ever try Dave's Insanity Sauce?

For the record, any pepper sauce that includes "Capsicum Extract" (AKA "Pepper Extract") is cheating.

I do not like hot sauce.

Do remember to be careful with the stuff! I've known people literally black out after putting too much on thier food!

About two years ago, one of my players and I decided to have a contest for who could eat the hottest stuff. Another player went out and ordered some manner of Dave's Insanity Sauce (Dave's special reserve or something like that, came in a numbered bottle).

Well between the two of us, we used about 1/3 of the bottle on our burrito for dinner that night, and I lost my sense of taste by the second bite, and was violently cursing by the end of the first burrito. Only after we eat that 1/3 of the bottle between the two of us, does the friend who bought the bottle notice and read to us the following warning on the label: "Warning: Not for direct human consumption. Dilute dropwise."

Thirty minutes later the two of us were quite literally -HIGH- on the endorphine rush. Giggling, whimsical, with a vague sense of euphoria that came close to a shot of demerol you'd get after surgery. Another half hour after that and we were on the floor in miserable pain as our stomachs tried to implode.

I didn't get out of bed the next day, and it took about 4 days to finally get my sense of taste back.

We refer to this stuff as Liquid Stupid.

Among the sauces actually made by Tabasco, I do like the Chipotle one best for flavor, it's not as hot as regular tabasco, actually kind of mild actually, but it has a great flavor.

Ditto for me.

I was turned onto that flavor at the local Chipotle chain, and have been using it regularly since. It has just the right mix of heat and flavor! Mmmmm!

Yeesh Shem ... THAT is intense. I'd never do anything like THAT! Well ... it serves as a good warning to the others who want to try the stuff.

Any specific brand?

Er,

The garlic Tabasco

Couple of tales to relate.

My sister bought some stuff on one of her trips around the country that she had to sign a waiver to buy. It was in a tiny black bottle. I don't remember the name of it, but I put like 3 drops in a huge pot of chili and we could barely eat the stuff. And I love hot sauce. Hell, I've put it on ice cream before. But not that stuff. That stuff was nuclear fallout in a bottle. Whew!

Once, a couple of friends and I stopped by a party as it was winding down. Another friend of ours was passed out on the floor. They had already played the standard tricks on him, shaving cream in hand, feather on nose, warm water, etc. Well, I smeared a bit of Dave's Insanity sauce on his lips. Let's just say he wasn't impressed.

Duly noted.

That's one of those moments in my life that frankly, I'd love to just pass off as a case of "I was young and I was stupid", except I'm 27 and it was only two years ago. But man... not something I'll ever do again, but it did make for a good story after the agony. Hehehe.

I'll second that recommendation of the Chipotle Tabasco sauce. Very smokey flavor, rather mild, and great on eggs.
