Paris Hilton likes her burgers spicy. The hotel heiress, actress, jewelry designer and entrepreneur will star in a television commercial next week in which she will slap suds on the side of a Bentley automobile and chomp on a thick burger while clad in a skimpy black bathing suit. Read more…

Now, I think very little of Paris Hilton, but I do think Carl’s JR is very smart with their marketing. Just the fact that they signed Paris Hilton for this commercial will get them plently of free press.

But on the same hand, we all know these “spicy” burgers from Carls’ JR are not going to be spicy. It’s covered in BBQ sauce and jalapeno peppers - pickled jalapeno peppers at that. I’ve tried just about every “spicy” burger that I can find. The only one that I’ve found to come close is a burger made by Island Burger called the Napalm Burger. The burger comes with: Blackened, BBQ, Jalapeno, Cheddar, Habanero Sauce. I asked the waitress if they made the habanero sauce and she told me no and then brought out a bottle of Melinda’s XXX Reserve Hot Sauce.

Now, when I make my own burgers at home, I like to throw a little Chipotle Tabasco into the beef before grilling. It makes the buger succulent and moist. Then, once the burgers have finished cooking, I like to throw a little of Marie Sharp’s Beliezan Heat or some Joe Perry’s Boneyard Brew on top. Yum!

A Runaway Bride Hot Sauce? Hmmm….

Runaway bride Jennifer Wilbanks can now warm her cold feet from the inside out. A hot sauce has been named for her.

“Pappy” David Ryan, a Lawrenceville entrepreneur who runs Pappy’s Peppers on the city square, has began distributing a private label condiment dubbed “Jennifer’s High Tailin’ Hot Sauce.” He says he can’t keep the $7 item on the shelves. Read More…

From Pappy’s Website:
“Warning: This sauce may cause you to seek intense professional help… voluntarily.” The “Runaway Bride” is now a killer habanero hot sauce! Bring Jennifer home to your house for that Spicy and Uncertain feeling that only she can bring. As heard on “The Neal Boortz Show”. Habanero Peppers, Carrots, Onion, vinegar, Garlic, Lime Juice, Salt.

Now, these types of sauces generally have zero flavor, but they do make great gag gifts and converstation pieces.
