Chairman Meow’s Revenge by Fat Cat Foods is delicious. I can most certainly say that is one of the freshest scorpion pepper hot sauces I’ve ever had. The label description on the bottle describes is as “strong and savoury”... it sure is. This sauce has a good amount of heat and a remarkably aromatic taste due to the prominent notes of garlic and cilantro. The combination of these ingredients with roasted red peppers, lime juice, and a hint of mustard make for a tangy, fresh-tasting hot sauce. I find it reminiscent of a spicy bruschetta, or even a salsa for that matter due to the roasted red peppers, fresh cilantro, and garlic zing.
The ingredients are vinegar, onions, roasted red peppers, garlic, lime juice, habanero peppers, cilantro, mustard, scorpion peppers, sea salt, and paprika. The hot peppers used in this sauce are very hot! The habanero pepper has a distinct citrusy, sometimes smoky flavour, and the scorpion pepper, one of the hottest peppers on the planet, has a fruity flavour. I would give this sauce an 8 out of 10 for heat due to the fact that the scorpion pepper is one of the last ingredients on the list, meaning that there is more habanero heat in this sauce. The scorpion heat does creep up on you!
This sauce has so many different flavours going on, which makes it great on all kinds of food. I would add it on pizzas, tacos, sandwiches, grilled vegetables or meats. This sauce is also delicious mixed with sour cream, hummus, salsa, and even soup! I’ve also mixed this sauce in with bruschetta and served it on some crostini. I’ve even enjoyed it in my pasta sauce!
