Definitely has a good kick to it, I really enjoy putting it on a pulled pork sandwich or burger, the bourbon flavour really shines that way.

This is a good sauce to cook with. It’s pretty splashy and the flavor is much more boozy than I was expecting. I’m sure in a chili or cooking/marinading a steak with this would be great but as a topper, I wouldn’t use it.

Haha, this one is my absolute favorite, and I just could not pour too much in my home-made chile con carne. It is so hot but so good!!!

I was excited to get this sauce. Something about seeing this on Hot Ones just allured me to it: the color, the texture, the ingredients. I enjoyed it so much that I plowed through 10 wings fresh of the fryer in less than 5 minutes. I just kept on saucing and pounding them back. And then I realized how much I lit my mouth up. Love that slow burn of the ghost.

Starts of with a really great smoky flavor, followed by a quick hit of bourbon sweetness, then a slow building burn that lasts quite a while. I haven't tried the sauce mixed in with actual bourbon yet, but I'll update my review if I do.

Flavor is smoky and rich, sort of reminding me of BBQ. That said mixed with some BBQ sauce this goes very well on meat!

Love this sauce. It's a big hit with everyone at my monthly hot sauce game. Complex flavor layers that are not overpowered at all by the pretty healthy burn. Not super hot, but not for the inexperienced, either. We gave this a 7/10 for heat and 8/10 for flavor. It's on my very exclusive "Buy Again" list.
