Heated Discussions Intro

May 29, 2017 1 Comment

My name is Alexis and I’m a hot sauce/spicy food enthusiast who’s been happily ordering a constant supply of products from Chilly Chiles for many years now. I’m passionate about trying every new hot sauce I encounter and also love to cook and discover new dishes, preferably with heat! I’ve been a heat seeker for quite some time, so I can say that I’ve had my fair share of spicy! I’m also quite present in the hot sauce community, both on-and off-line, through my Instagram account @hotsaucebae and on Facebook, where I engage with a number of different hot sauce makers from Canada and the U.S.

During this past Christmas season I worked at the Chilly Chiles Bayshore Shopping Centre location and it was an amazing opportunity to get to know and work with all the staff! I thoroughly enjoyed assisting customers by suggesting products to suit their level of heat enjoyment. All three of our store locations have a wealth of sample bottles for people to try from! One of my goals in this blog is to encourage you to not only discover our online offerings, but also to come see us in person to taste for yourself that we’ve got some of the best hot sauces, marinades, BBQ sauces, and spicy snacks out there!

As the name suggests, this blog will be a platform for “heated discussions” for all things heat and spice! Here I’ll be sharing lots of interesting facts about hot sauces and my culinary experiences with all of the great products available at Chilly Chiles. Some other things you can expect to find here are: information on featured products from both Canada and around the world, hot sauce reviews, a discussion of the health benefits of hot sauces and spicy foods in general, suggestions for different dishes using the hot sauces that we carry, including recipes that are super quick to prepare yet deliver on bold and instant heat, and much more!

I hope you enjoy browsing through our site and checking out all our great products!

Until next time, keep it spicy!

Alexis

Bee Sting Mango Passion Hot Sauce

February 19, 2020

When you think of a bee sting, you probably think of excruciating pain and the need for medical attention. Well get that thought out of your mind for this sauce as it will definitely not sting you much at all! It will, however, provide you with some fresh tropical flavours.

CaJohns Hydra Hot Sauce

February 11, 2020

CaJohns Hydra Hot Sauce is definitely a force to be reckoned with! Made with 7-Pot Primo chilies, it’s got a fresh heat that you’d expect to get from this brand. Hydra is in fact a very pepper-forward sauce, meaning that much of the flavour comes from the main pepper itself.

Heartbreaking Dawns Cauterizer

February 04, 2020

The flavour profile of Cauterizer is fruity, tangy, sweet, and savoury. Trinidad Scorpion peppers bring a solid, blazing heat and fruity flavour, with the cider vinegar preserving the sauce while adding some sour notes. Apricot preserves, blueberries, and honey...

Dawson Original Hot Sauce

Smells good. Tastes good. Hot as hell. But manageable.

The toe was damn hot!!!

The toe of satan is friggin so hot. It's one thing to eat something hot and swallow it. The toe is 9 million scolville but you are sucking on it. Need I say more!!! Picture was for fun but that was about 20 mins after!!

Perfect if you like strong vinegar-y sauces.

So my partner loves this sauce, but she loves kimchi and all things vinegar/acid-y. So I'm giving this 4 stars based on her opinion.

The normal Hellfire Detroit is one of my favorite sauces of all time for reference; however Bourbon Habanero Ghost is too tart/acidy for my taste, its also considerably hotter (which is welcome for some but a difference to note), I'd say 40% hotter than normal hellfire.

Good flavour with lingering heat

This is a pretty darn hot sauce, but the underlying flavour is still noticeable. This is a good one to have in your collection for those liking a strong kick now and then.

So good!

Bought this set as a gift for my brother who collects hot sauce and he liked it a lot. The Chicago one works well with guacamole! While the Adobo loco packs a punch. 10/10 would purchase and try other stuff again! Also the packaging is great and it arrived in perfect condition.
