McIllhenny Company sent me some bottles of Tabasco, BBQ and Mustards to taste. So far, I’ve tried the Southern Louisiana BBQ Sauce, the Chipotle Tabasco, Garlic Pepper Tabasco and Habanero Tabasco.
First, the BBQ Sauce. It’s not hot, but it’s packed with flavor. There are chunks of tomato, peppers, onion, garlic, etc. You can not only taste it, but see the chunks. This BBQ sauce would be perfect for marinating. I used it on Alfalfa sprouts last week for lunch. It’s not as sweet as you’re traditional BBQ sauce, but it doesn’t matter. Try it, if you like chunky sauces.
Habanero Tabasco Sauce. Ouch, Fiiiiiiiirre! It’s hot, but not over powering when combined with other flavors. I actually added it to the BBQ for some kick it just works perfectly. Try this out with Mexican food. It’s a perfect compliment. The Scoville Heat Unit ranges around 7000-8000. So, it’s up there.
Next, i tried the Garlic Pepper. It was so good on pizza. Instead of red pepper flakes, drizzle this on your pasta or eggplant and feel your taste buds sweating.
Lastly, i had the Chipotle. This, so far, is my favorite. The flavor is amazing. I had it last week with homemade hummus and it complimented so elegantly. The smokiness of the chipotle and the heat from the Tabasco’s pepper pulp was out of the world. I can’t wait to eat more. This might become my new best friend.
