We love it and will keep buying it. Please keep this hot sauce as we will be absolutely heartbroken if it's discontinued. I personally find regular BBQ sauce very sweet and stay away from it. This sauce changed my mind and now I love this BBQ flavor with kick..

I really wanted to love this, as I have the other Los Calientes sauces. I'm just not a fan. It has a good flavor, but I could just spice up any store bought BBQ sauce for the same taste. Sorry!

I've tried all three sauces to bear the "Los Calientes" name so far, and compared to my favorite, Los Calientes Red, this was a big disappointment. The heat is mild and the flavor gets lost unless you really pile it on. I let my 10 year old daughter try a bite of a taco with this sauce on it and when I asked her if it was hot, she just shrugged. Definitely a weaker sauce than advertised, and not what I was hoping for.

You had a rowdy night, but a rough morning. You feel like you might need an IV. You just can't wake up, and what you need to do is wake up your mind, and wake up those taste buds! Get you some eggs, some chorizo or bacon, get those tortillas an abuelita made, not the junk at a grocery store chain endcap. And don't forget some Calientes Barbacoa. Calientes Barbacoa, wake up your body, wake up your mind and then wake up those tastebuds or else you're going to be a sloth!

Very good, and definitely our go to sauce. Great on everything especially the eggs. My wife put it in the enchilada sauce for the chicken enchiladas , best I ever had! And have already bought 12 jars, and almost ready for more.

If you enjoy barbeque sauce with a little spice, look no further. Crazy good. Almost drinkable. Could be a tad bit hotter but it's not a negative.
