Review: Danny Cash’s Renegade Habanero Ranch
Bottle Description: Nothing hidden about this ranch! Habanero and garlic combine for a burning ranch! Heat 6/10
Ingredients: Habanero and Serrano chile peppers, buttermilk, garlic, soybean oil, sugar, dried parsley, lemon, lime, vinegar and salt.
Container: I’m no cycle fan so I can’t comment on the label. I will tell you this about the container though. The pour is excellent.
Appearance: If you didn’t know that it looks like ranch then I can’t help you.
Smell: Unsurprisingly this [tag]ranch[/tag] smells like of course ranch. However, there’s a hint of acidity from the vinegar, salt and peppers. Ranch smell with a tiny bit of bite.
Taste: Well damn. Of course first you get the familiar flavor of ranch but afterwards you get a tiny bit of sourness that lets out the pepper flavor. The peppers are faint but add to the good overall flavor of the sauce. Renegade Habanero Ranch tastes nothing like Hidden Valley Ranch which I assume is old fat-free milk and bird crap.
Heat: 5.0/10. Well at least Danny Cash was honest about the heat. If it were another company they’d probably be bragging about their non-existent [tag]habanero[/tag] content. I salute you Danny Cash for being honest.
God-like on friesField Test: For ranch this stuff works surprisingly well with lots of stuff. I added it to chicken and rice, Mexican food and vegetables and they were all good. This stuff is god-like on fries. Don’t be afraid to stray from your usual ranch routine.
Final Word: Not bad, it’s better then you expect. I really had no expectations for this stuff and I figured that hot sauce makers should stick to hot sauce but it’s really good. Usually when some hot sauce makers decide to stray from what made them popular in the sauce industry they try to expand to something else with mixed results. This sauce is good stuff.
Overall: 7.8/10

This one’s in my fridge and it’s awesome, I’ll have to save the bottle though because on the side of it in big bold letter’s it says EAT ME….lol…
Maybe I got HUV’s bottle instead…lol
Keep up the great work at DC
wowzers
This has become a staple in my fridge. It’s amazing for a mayo substitute in boring old ham sandwiches (I mixed it with Droolin’ Devil Chipotle for a Chipotle Ranch concoction) and can spice up your run of the mill veggie
platter. I even used it the other day in my egg salad.
Love the label, and I am a cycle guy, and the pour is perfect. 😈
Danny and the gang have done it again with this one. A great spin on an old standby in the dressing/condiment department in my opinion.
Thanks for a good review Clint! And thanks Big & Blane for the kind words! It’s amazing how much of this stuff we sell at shows to people who aren’t looking for a ranch-
“This stuff is god-like on fries” we agree, and actually think this product shines best on fried foods as a dip instead of on salads.

Collectables are cool – but DAMN BLANE! EAT SOME SAUCE ALREADY! I want to start seeing pictures of empty bottles on the blog. I’ve thrown away about 3 cases of empties in the last month and a half. I should posted THAT collection with Nick! haha
[Comment ID #70969 Quote]
100% right on !!!
I don’t open signed or “special bottles”, but nothing is wrong at all with having a collection of emptys that you save. If someone asks, hows that sauce, you dont look stoopid and say , duh, never tried it !!
[Comment ID #70980 Quote]
Maybe Iv’e tried your sauce and I’m just to kind in saying I’d like the signed collectible instead….lol… I think alot of people will back me up when I say I buy a signed set and a set to taste.
Matter of fact Danny I got a few bottles and asked you not to sign them because they where to eat, also picked up your sample pack….. I would eat the clock I ordered from you but I don’t like plastic…..lol….. You guys are killing me..
And for you AJ not to back me up on this…..
I have 15 bottles in my fridge, I’m the only one that eats hot sauce at the house…. And about the same in the cubboard ready when I finish the others…
And for the love of go d read the comment… it says it’s in the fridge and I’d have to save the bottle…. ie, empty bottle….. I have several bottles that are filled with marbles when I’m done with them, sounds crazy but yes I save some of the empty bottles…. Others can confirm that also because they have recieved pics of it….
I think this is kind of funny, don’t take my comment wrong I love you guys…. But kiss my a$$ on when and how I eat my sauce….. Hows that for a comment….lol
Now with that said, if you have any bottles that I don’t have from your line, please sign them and let me know what I owe….lol
Have a good one guys…
[Comment ID #70984 Quote]LOL! Tell him how it is, homeboy!

Lee make sure you fill the order, I don’t need Danny putting any special sauce in there…lol

One place I always eat at when we go threw Denver (Every since I was a kid) is Casa Bonita that place is sweet….. Maybe its me holding on to the past, because everyone I take there says its just okay….lol

It is a cool place with great atmosphere, but the food sucks. It is so plain and bland. We were working with them on a private label, doing our part to increase the experience through hot sauce, when their head guy told us nevermind. I guess they are all about volume keeping costs down as low as possible instead of providing quality. Oh well, everyone has their niche, I guess. They are the Wal-mart of Mexican restaurants.

It is foresure a bring your own sauce buffet….lol….
[Comment ID #70984 Quote]
HOLY COW, I was misunderstood bigtime !!!!
I back you up bigtime blane, I meant the same, I dont open signed, I buy 2 , 1 to keep, 1 to taste, but any ORDINARY sauce, I always open and save the empty if I dont already have it.
Hope that cleared it up !!!
Aj

Don’t worry about it, nothing to clear up, everyone knows I love collecting Hot sauces and maybe some think I don’t eat it, unless you where at Tenn….lol…. I just wanted to clear up to DC that I actually eat a ton of sauce, just because I don’t reorder don’t take offense, I just want to try ever sauce out there before I die….lol…. There’s a few I have to keep on hand always, some I have had in the pantry for a month waiting for me to open and try…. And I must say I do have a hard time opening a friends bottle that is unsigned….lol… But I’m getting help for that…lol… No problem on my end, just busting some ba,,lls and having some fun while I do it…lol…
[Comment ID #71287 Quote]
So maybe I’m lost- you want me to come over and open all your bottles and put some busted ba,,lls and marbles in your fridge then kiss your a$$!?! ❓
[Comment ID #71296 Quote]
