THE BEST HOT SAUCES IN AMERICA

There comes a time in a guy’s life (maybe age 16?) when he no longer believes his manhood to be defined by the sheer level of spiciness he can handle. This measure of manhood is replaced with more mature pursuits, such as the cylinders under his hood, or the number of days he can go without urinating indoors.

In other words, we grow up. But very few of us outgrow a good kick. We remain of the firm belief that almost all foods can be improved with a well-balanced hot sauce.

With that in mind, we tracked down the tastiest, most innovative chili sauces this country has to offer. We deliver them with a first-of-its-kind hot sauce tasting notebook to help him keep track of the heat. Flame on.
