« « Previous | Review: Marie Sharp’s Beware Comatose Hot Sauce » »
I’ve discovered that choosing the right hot sauce for breakfast is critical, one wrong choice and the rest of my day is marred by unhappy tastebuds. So on a Sunday morning when I planned to try out a new omlette pan, I opted to make a skillet mix and took great care in considering my morning hot sauce. I dug through a box of sauces that were so generously donated to the HSB and within the wide selection of hot sauces I came across a bottle of Jackson’s Red Death in the Desert Hot Sauce. Having read the two previous reviews of the Death in the Desert Hot Sauce, I knew I could expect a well rounded sauce, but I was not completely prepared for what was to come.
Ingredients: Red Savina Habaneros, Tomatoes, Vinegar, Garlic, Onion, Salt, Herbs and Spices.
Smell & First Taste: Holy red savinas batman! That about says it all. The red savinas are the only thing I can taste and smell from this sauce, which is a good thing. 100% red savina pepper flavor. The straight taste test didn’t set off too many bells and whistles with the heat alarm, which was a bit odd but then again, I didn’t try an entire spoonful of it - just a dash on the tongue.
On Food: As I mentioned, I created a nice skillet mix with sausage, potatoes red & green peppers, onions & scrambled eggs. Topped all that off with a bit of shredded white cheddar cheese and presto, you’ve got a brilliant Sunday breakfast/brunch. The of course I covered the entire plate with a generous helping of Jackson’s Red Death in the Desert.
Within a few bites, I finally began to realize the full heat potential of this sauce. Then, suddenly, I was starting to sweat and the nose began to run - brilliant! I caught my breath a few times before polishing of breakfast and the burn lingered for a good 10-15 minutes afterwards (with no liquids).
Conclusion: Arizona Jack has yet another solid hot sauce on his hands. If your looking for a hotter then normal habanero hot sauce without that added extract flavor, then Jackson’s Red Death in the Desert Hot Sauce won’t disappoint. It’s a great sauce with a pure Red Savina Pepper flavor and not much more. I could see using this sauce on just about anything - I’m going to try it out on some Mexican food next, that is if the bottle lasts that long!

Hey way to go AJ! Keep up the great work bro!
Wow love the last pic…Good job AJ can’t wait to try your products.
I will add this to my “To Try List”
That’s an awesome review Nick, thanks so much.
As always happens everytime we get reviewed… we are experiencing a website glitch.
Go to Penrod Pepper Products because for whatever reason the superspicy.com suddenly decided to aim itself elsewhere and I’m waiting for things to update…
Thanks again

Thanks Nick, spot on review. We were lookin to make a superhot without the extract taste, so I’m glad you like it, it is my fav sauce.
Could not have done it without JimC’s mash tho, we all know that !!!

AJ,
Looking forward to trying it!!
AJ always puts out a great product!
Sounds like it’s a similar sauce to CaBoom! by Cajohn which is a great Red Savina hot sauce. I will have to try it for sure.

Great review..cant wait to try this sauce.if its like anything else Jack makes it has to be good
I don’t know what I am more hungry for now, the sauce or the skillet mix? I guess one is not much good without the other!! Can’t wait to try the sauce.
I look forward in trying the Red DITD sauce I’ve tried the reg. DITD but this one does not show Carrot’s in the ingredients.
AJ great job as always.
Looks good AJ, I have a bottle of this sitting on my shelf and now I know just the meal to make with it!

Come on Jim, you deserve a little credit here!!! THT has found out the hard way that if you don’t have a good quality mash made with the finest chilis you’ve got nothing but a big ole batch of BITTER sauce! You rock too!!!
Jim’s right, he just provides the chiles…

Busy? Heck yes, was sick earlier in the week and had all this downtime and didnt know what the heck to do with myself! Busy is now a way of life! But don’t worry, I still stop to smell the chilis.
Hey, you want another daughter??? I could use some new stuff.

Right on Kristi, Jim does deserve a great amount of credit. The pepper mash you start with determines the results. No fighting to make a bad mash good, with this, you start good and you end good.
