The Learning Continues

Tried again.... less fruit this time. 25 habaneros, onions, roasted garlic, roasted habanero flakes, carrots, vinegar, pineapple juice, lime juice, and salt. 2.9 pH.... Definitely more distinguishable flavors. Definitely hotter, but still maybe just a 5 out of 10. I'll taste it again tomorrow once everything marries up.

Phil that sauce looks lovely.
If i had any woozys id offer to trade a bottle for a
bottle :-)

Phil · Mar 10, 2013

Thank you! Not sure what across the pond shipping costs are, but let me know when you get some. We may be able to trade up!

Cool i can send you a small jar but it is very small. Well you could just send it back full of your sauce when you finish it. Do we have a deal?

Phil · Mar 10, 2013

Probably best not to reuse the bottle/jar. I can just send a sealed bottle of my green sauce.

INM Sauces · Mar 10, 2013

Ok pm me your address and ill send it your way. Thx phil i might throw something else in as a whole bottle for a small jar is kinda unfair. Anything you want from the uk?

Phil · Mar 10, 2013

negative, ghostrider.... a taste is just fine with me!!! Don't worry about the perception of "fair"..... that's what's got this stupid country upside down as it is!

INM Sauces · Mar 11, 2013

Are you sure? Thx pm me your address.

Holy Crap. I've been scarce... Now you have a green sauce? lol
CJ just happened to have a Butt Roast in the Crock-Pot the day your Red showed up, (I think the one with garlic and wine in it).
HOLY HELL this is good! Thank You Phil for sharing!

After 4 Tacos, this was the damage..

Phil · Mar 15, 2013

Scovie · Mar 15, 2013

Pulled Pork and Corn..
LA your sauce was born
I'll tell you now,
I'll tell you latah...

That shit is awesome.

Phil · Mar 15, 2013

I marinated our filet mignon in that stuff tonight. If I were you, I'd refill the bottle with worcestershire sauce and mix it in to make a steak sauce!

Scovie · Mar 15, 2013

No Way! I won't do that. It is really awesome the way it is.

Lezbehonest tho... I added 4 drops of Pure Evil to the remaining 1/2 bottle...

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Phil · Mar 15, 2013

Scovie · Mar 15, 2013

Perfect. Not burn your balls off, but nice and warm.

and no change to the flavor..

[sub]I've been experimenting with making my own sauce as well and I'm glad to see mine looks a lot like yours, the habanero sauce that is, even though I used all red habaneros it still has that orange color but that's fine with me that makes it stick out from the store bought stuff. I need to find me some of those small bottles and learn how to bottle and seal it up so I can give some away and feel comfortable about not making anyone sick. Right now I make about 3 quarts at a pop and just refrigerate it, I've been told the way I do it is safe as long as it is stored cold. I should invest in a PH meter of some sort I guess so maybe I can reduce the amount of vinegar I use.[/sub]

Phil · Mar 22, 2013

The pH meter is a good investment. It helps with vinegar measurement and offers peace of mind with the safety of your sauce

You can get the bottles for less than a buck each from specialty bottle supply. They have a website
