Let’s start with the label. Danny Cash has one of the coolest labels out there. Diamond plate, flaming choppers and two sets of dual exhaust spitting flames. It screams of testerone and after all, hot sauce is a staple of manliness.
Now let’s get to the sauce…
Ingredients: fresh mangos, red habanero peppers, vinegar, sugar.
This sauce is visually appealing, an opaque orange with tiny bits of red habanero pepper and a few seeds suspended in it……oh how I wish there were more bits of peppers and seeds.
The aroma is fruity with a strong vinegar bite.
If I had to use one word to describe the flavor, it would be tangy. It’s both sweet and sour at the same time. I was hoping for a lot more heat, with red habaneros as the second ingredient. In fact, I expected it.
I applied a generous amount to some smoked pork enchiladas. While it was delicious, I couldn’t help but think the sauce should be called Mango Habanero instead of Habanero Mango Hot Sauce. So, I applied more. It paired perfectly with the pork, chips, avocado, and it was even decent on the tomatoes with some fresh ground pepper added.
For my second trial, I breaded and pan fried some thin strips of pork and applied a generous amount of Mean Streak along with some cayenne pepper flakes from last year’s pepper patch. WOW!! Mean Streak was a perfect sweet & sour sauce.
As for heat, I would give this a 2.5 – maybe 3, which makes it attractive to a larger market. I really enjoyed this sauce and would recommend it for chicken, pork, shrimp, eggs or anything else that lends itself to a sweetness.

AJ,
Nice to see you. How is everything?? Did everything go as planned?
I need to hear from you about the “Son of Sam” auction when you have a chance. Still need your submission sent.
Like I said, when you have a chance and not a minute before, ok?
Peace, love and happiness to you and yours.
Thanks Big and AJ, If either of you are gonna make it to ZestFest bring some product so I can buy it from the source. My wife was @ a shop in San Diego called Hot Licks and asked me what I wanted. They didn’t carry Uncle Big’s, CSIGI, Mild to Wild, or THT, they did have Danny Cash, but I can pick that up locally.

Hot Licks in San Diego carries THT products. HMMM that is strange.
