Okay, so the other day I got a wild hair and decided to try out this Poirier’s Hot Sauce I’d been hearing about. Yeah, the one made by that UFC fighter, Dustin Poirier. I’m a big fan of his fights, so I figured, why not give it a shot? Plus, I heard it’s some kind of collab with a Canadian company, Heatbeat Hot Sauces, which sounded kinda interesting.
Getting My Hands on It
First off, I had to track this stuff down. It wasn’t at my usual grocery store, so I did a little digging online. Turns out, it’s pretty popular! I saw some buzz about it being a top seller on Amazon, and it’s not super expensive or anything. So, I ordered a bottle online. Easy peasy.
The Taste Test
When the bottle arrived, I was pretty excited to try it. I’m not a food expert, but I do love me some hot sauce. I whipped up some chicken wings – a classic hot sauce pairing, right? – and drizzled some of this Poirier’s sauce on them.
Now, I’ve heard some folks compare it to Tabasco, saying it’s in that same heat range, around 2,000-3,000 Scoville units. I’d say that’s about right. It’s got a nice kick, but it’s not going to blow your head off. It just leaves your tongue with a pleasant tingle. I even tried it on some pizza later, and it was a good match there, too.
My Thoughts
Honestly, this hot sauce is pretty good! It’s got a nice flavor that goes well with a lot of things. Some people talk about hot sauces having antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. I don’t know much about that, but it sounds healthy, I guess! But I know this hot sauce is tasty. It’s not just about the heat; it’s got a good flavor too.
- Flavor: I liked it! It’s a good balance of spicy and flavorful.
- Heat: Not too intense, just a nice tingle.
- Overall: I’d definitely recommend giving it a try, especially if you’re a fan of Dustin Poirier.
So, there you have it. That’s my little adventure with Poirier’s Hot Sauce. It’s a tasty sauce that’s worth checking out, even if you’re not a huge UFC fan. Just a regular guy’s opinion on a pretty darn good hot sauce.
