    The Ring of Fire: The best and hottest hot sauce

    The Ring of Fire: The best and hottest hot sauce
    Stan Dyer – Denver Dining Examiner

    With the 2009 Cajun Hot Sauce Festival just around the corner, (April 17,18, 19 – SugArena, New Iberia, LA), it seemed like a good time to talk about the popular, fiery sauce that has had a loyal following from pepper lovers probably since before people started keeping track.

    One of my colleagues recently wrote offering her opinion of the “best” hot sauce. I did not mean to discount her choice by pointing out that the variety is so wide, it is almost impossible for anyone to taste them all and decide on just one, lone favorite. There are literally thousands of hot sauces of varying recipes and levels of heat with new ones added to the market all the time. There is everything from the common, semi-mild sauce “Crystal”, that is almost ubiquitous in New Orleans, all the way up to new sauces boasting 2.5 million Scovilles, the unit of heat based on the amount of capsaicin found in the chile. Hot sauce, not to be confused with “Salsa”, is a special mixture meant to be used as a condiment and is so popular there is even a web ring, “The Ring of Fire”, devoted just to hot sauces, chiles and those seeking that special, burning sensation on their tongues.

      had some Ring of Fire steak sauce on grilled chicken breast last night. Should be called meat sauce. Good on all kinds of meat.
