The Hottest F**kin' Sauce

Would look good on a Tesco shelf

This arrived yesterday moshers ~ The Hottest F**kin' Sauce. Id been eager to try it ever since seeing it and now that I have? Well despite the warnings and waffle printed on the bottles label, and the fact that it is a respectable 600,000 Scoville Heat Units, I didn't find it that hot. And nope, that's not some bullsh!t to try and sound macho, im simply telling it like it is (for me anyway.) If we were scoring for heat, I would give The Hottest F**kin' Sauce a 5/10. For taste it would get 9/10 because its much tastier than say Blair's Mega Death Sauce. But hey, its all about opinions right?
You can check out my video (below) to see a more 'hands on' report. But I will be getting more of this because like I say, it tastes good. Plus I wont be giving up on the heat just yet. A Motorhead sized spoonful of it on a burger, or in a curry should finally give me a deciding kick one way or other.

The two main ingredients of The Hottest F**kin' Sauce are Habanero peppers and Scotch Bonnets.

Blair's Ultra Death Sauce

Sweet Chilli O' Mine

Bought a bottle of Blair's Ultra Death Sauce this week to replace my empty Mega Death bottle. Its a step up from Mega and contains red habanero pods, cayenne chilies, pirri-pirri chilies with added Naga Jolokia peppers and is a eye watering, nut melting 800,000 Scoville Units.

Not hot but tasty!

Discovered some hot sauces in the supermarkets a few days ago and seeing as ive become a big fan of them, it would have been rude for me not to have picked them up. The sauce in the pic cost just £2 from Tesco, a Heinz ~ Yellow Habanero. "A fiery yellow chilli sauce with sweetness to balance its searing heat." The guff on their website claims. "Ideal for splashing over pizza, pasta, stir fries, chicken, burgers and much more."
Now its a tidy sauce, lush as we say here in Wales but its certainly not "searing heat." Not even close! Hell if Heinz call this "searing heat", Id love to see them try Blair's Death range sauces. It IS tasty though, has a gentle sweetness to it with just a tiny nip to let you know that its trying to be a hot sauce and I will get more. They have two others as well: Chipotle & Garlic (a smokey, medium spiced sauce with a tasty note of garlic) and Green Jalapeño (a hot sauce with a very tangy, almost pickled taste) so will check those out too.

Clive Burr Lives On

Drum solo in Reading, 1982

Clive Burr passed away yesterday at the criminally young age of 56. Sleep well Clive, happy knowing you made Iron Maiden that bit extra special. I have been a Maiden fan since the beginning. Their 1980 debut "Iron Maiden" record was one of the first albums I ever owned and the band have been with me since I was 9 years old, making them feel like distant friends who accompanied me to school and who were around when I got my first girlfriend so this news was sadder than most.
Clive was an awesome drummer (check out a solo above) and those first three Maiden albums (Iron Maiden, Killers and The Number of the Beast) were simply stunning pieces of work. There isn't a bad track on any of them. Not one rubbish song, there aren't many bands who can claim that. (In fact besides the mighty Maiden I can't name any.)

Cliff Burton, Ronnie James Dio, Dimebag Darrel; it looks like God just needed a drummer.
