Well, the Thanksgiving table at the Launch Pad had all 3 of these sauces on it and it was the first real taste test of the sauces with food and I was really happy with the results. In fact those of us that like spicy foods couldn't find just one out of the three that we wanted to stay with so, we got some small plates and put a bit of each on there.
Flaming Pumpkin
I was really excited about this one as Pumpkin is my newest ingredient. This sauce had a really great garlicy goodness to it and there was just enough of a special spice, also a new ingredient, to make itself known without being over the top, wheebz can you guess what it is? The sauce came out a little thinner than I really like but was so good I really didn't care. This will become a seasonal sauce from now on.
SRB - Seriously Righteous Burn
I was expecting this sauce to have a really great burn and man did it at least to me it did. With the 9 pepper blend used in this sauce the pepper flavor really shined with maybe just a hint of a sweetness from the sweet onion and carrots. Medium thick the way I really like my sauces to be, this sauce went with everything I tried it with but it was really good on the ham.
Smoked Haba-peno
Haba-Peno was my first fermented sauce and is still the sauce that most people ask for. Making it with peppers that were smoked with Apple wood for 4 hours though, WOW! The real smoke flavor just explodes without being too much and really adds to the complexity of this already great sauce. I'll for sure be doiing this again.
I've already said it but I'm hoping that those who have had the opportunity to try these sauce will stop by and comment.
Cheers y'all
