I'm with you man. Hot for the sake of hot, blah. Sure, I can burn the shit out of my mouth, but that's not fun or a challenge. I like my heat with flavour. That was the problem with the ghost chillis; they were too hot to taste (was a bit like super hot capsicum).

In the past couple of weeks I've gone through a bottle of this - [www.grumpygarys.com]

Has a nice flavour and some heat; it's only 5/10 heat to me but 15/10 for my father in law (bottle says 8/10; but these guys "13/10" I consider "decently hot". It has a heat kick that I get used to very quickly so it's not overwhelming.

I'm still looking for something truly amazing off the shelf. My wife's ... friend's husband ... makes his own sauce, it's spicy and delicious. I reckon he should bottle it (I'd buy it), all from his own chillis. Need to get me some more of that.

What's your favourite sauce Kim?
