« « Previous | Review: Nando’s eXtra-hot Peri-peri Sauce » »
Several weeks ago, a few of us sauce crazies were asked via email to try a yet to be named, prototype mango habanero sauce and provide some helpful criticisms in the development stages. I’ve always liked contrasting flavors such as a sweet heat and looked forward to the challenge and of course the samples. My first sample arrived simply canned and labeled Mango #1.

Like a kid on Christmas, I jumped right in. Initially, I was greeted with an extremely rich yellow color and a delightfull Habanero smell. Starting with just a spoon, I burned thru most of the jar. When I say burned thru, I mean it literally burned thru me. This sauce has the perfect heat level, but not for the weak or timid. It truly is hot. No extract here and still a 9 out of 10 on heat.The balence of Habanero heat as well as Habanero flavor was perfect but it needed more Mango flavor and sweetness. My recommendation was to add fresh peaches to bring out the Mango flavor and the manufacturer agreed. In just a few days, sample number 11-M arrived.

Ingredients: Mango’s, Georgia Peaches, onion, leeks, yellow Bell Pepper, Orange Habanero’s, White Balsamic Vinegar, fresh Ginger, salt, Mustard, Sugar, red Bell Pepper, fresh Key Lime Juice, fresh Grapefruit Juice, Jalepeno Pepper and white Wine.
This is really where the review begins. Folks, I have travelled the country for 18 years. I have had about every kind of sauce, from all corners of the planet. I have my own line of sauces under the name of Blue’s BBQ, Inc. I feel qualified to make this statement: I have to tell you, this sauce, which has now been named MANGO PARADISE is, hands down, the best I have ever had. Being critical, I’ve tried to find problems with the sauce. I can’t. Never thought I would give a perfect 10 out of 10, but I have no choice. I’m now hooked and need a 12 point program and counseling to kick the Paradise Mango habit.

Check out the rich mango color and perfect texture.
One would think that a Mango Habanero would be a specific application sauce or SAS as Nick would put it, but not so here. I’ve put it on everything from toast to turkey to Mahi, made dips with it. Heck, I even made an ice cream shake with it. I don’t get carried away very often, but my absolute favorite is Mango Paradise Roasted Pork.

Paradise Mango with Pork
The only question I still had while writing this review was about packaging. A canning jar just wasn’t going to work. Well, about an hour ago, the finished product arrived via overnight courier. Guess what, another 10 !

Paradise Mango #4
Packaging 10/10
Aroma 10/10
Appearance 10/10
Taste 10/10
Heat 9/10
In closing, I don’t know of too many individuals that have the background, culinary skills, knowledege of flavors and fortitude to pull off the perfect sauce. It has been done right here. I may never get the opportunity to review a sauce this good again. My hat goes off to Master Chef Wes Zebzda. A job well done!

Great review Steve and looks a FANTASTIC sauce Wes.
I cannot help but wonder if I am on the right blog though, no tantrums, insults or questions regarding the “straight across the board 10/10’s”? Could it be????? What the hell is going on around here????? lol
Nevertheless,good for you, it looks delicious, and I cannot wait to try this one for myself!
Hay Kristi …thanks….what wrong with all 10’s…its the truth…got your 2 bottle set reserved…….I have every one else mango saucs beat…..I thank I just opened a can of worms…ouch…been doing Mango hot sauces for 20 yrs..
Nothing wrong with it at all wes, I say kudos to you! I think its actually officially a first!
Wes do you have plans to sell the sauce or is the only opportunity to buy it? I am not a collector and would hate to waste it just for my palate.

I think not, stop patting yourelf on the back…. Your sauce is far from being a 10…I’ve tried it,at the most maybe a 4 out 10 and what I’ve heard from other’s they agree… I’ve tried mango amore and it is in a completely different league than yours… Make me moan Mango also smokes your sauce. DC sauce is also a top sauce…. Get over yourself dude..
Who sells a collectible, but does not have a sauce for sale?
I mean really are your and Blues BBQ dating? I’ve never seen two people blow smoke as much as you…
I don’t think you’ll take this message wrong…. Read it twice so you fully understand it…
10/10 you have got to be kiddin me…
Am I the only one that thinks something is fishy about this guy…. I ‘m going to call Ryan….lol
Just my 2 cents worth…
And Wes before you respond hit Spell check.
I know I’ll take some heat for this post, But I really don’t care. It’s my true feelings.
Later.
“I cannot help but wonder if I am on the right blog though, no tantrums, insults or questions regarding the “straight across the board 10/10’sâ€? Could it be????? What the hell is going on around here????? lol”
Thank you! I felt like I was living in the twilight zone! Things were getting tooooo UNcontroversial! lol
BLAINE….i was waiting for this ..you still have a hair up your butt…this is stage #6 which only steve has tasted…Beside a few prominit CHEFS…you got the first prototypes…they were bad…..thats why i continued to try new ones …this is a 10…..on my mothers grave ….
and there is a sauce following!!!!!!!!!!
Like I no nothing about sauce and food…gee HUV will vouch that i’m made up of smoke and mirrors…
Blane your problem is that you are locked in a corporate position….leave it a work…we are all blue coller people..you are always in a condescending tone of voice.Which is why we (you and I )are in a very
percarious situation
Further more I resent the implication that..I blow smoke and can’t spell.
Whats the matter, Blane..seems like I am the only one that has the Balls to give you S… back..Except Gildo
My fire roasted red bell..sure does suck..let alone my red savina pickles
..
Blane on a positive note….I read Dale Caranagee..I have one set that i was holding for you with special made helments # 27….
You really friggin blue it !!!!!!!!
READE THIS THREE TIMES SO YOUN FULLY UNDERSTAND IT !!!
one last note…I really resent the implication about Blues ,Steve is good and Honest…so you just called aq good man a LIAR….you must sleep real good at night…..GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE
BLANE THAT WAS VERY RUDE TO CALL STEVE A LIAR,MY BLOOD IS BOILING, THAT MUST MEAN I’M A LIAR ALSO HE HAS A GREAT SAUCE TO COOK WITH…THIS GUY IS A GEM AND YOU HAVE TO DISCRACE HIM ON THE BLOG…..MUST BE ALL THAT PERPETUAL CORPORATE POUNDING YOU DO…..IT NEVER STOPS
Hi Blane:
I review sauces as I see them and will continue to do so. In fact, you will be reading quite a few reviews from me, right here on the HSB. If a product is a 10, it will get a 10. If the sauce is bad, my reviews will reflect that as well. I am always neutral and will let the sauces I review determine their own fate.
blane, dont you work in a factory that makes bacon?
didn’t know that was coorporate?

Cold beverage…check
Carry On……..
Can someone please translate?, I have lots of hairs up my butt…. I’m a hairy guy…
I call it like I see Wes, take it leave I don’t care….
In no way would I want your collectible… To each is his own, take the bottle and burn it, eat it or break it…
My job has nothing to do with it……. I need not defend this issue..
I’m not the one that is constantly throwing up who I’m…. I like Hot sauce,collect hot sauce, eat hot sauce and sell hot sauce… Unlike you with the what would I know.. hehe or my restraunts my garden IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII…. Dude your smothering and it make me want to throw up…….. Slow down take a breath, I’m not the one who has bregged about having rich friends…
Some one can fill you in on how I feel about giving 10/10 in my book it’s utopia and utopia does not exist…. So to answer your question not trying to call Steve a liar by no means… You on the other hand I have my doubt’s..
Anyway, thats about it…… Okay one more, I love when you say: email me everyone has it….. Are you kiddin me…lol
General you are correct, I’m as blue collar as you can get…. Proud of it… ![]()

Steve, no issue with you or the review, I just don’t believe in 10/10 and I don’t believe in WES…. Sorry, but please don’t take offense.
Sounds like Bacon Boy has some deep rooted issues. Someone call Dr. Phil!

Welcome Steve!
Just curious, have you ever given a sauce a Zero or a 1? Being a consumer, I really count on these reviews to know what to buy.
I think the lowest score ever given on the HSB to a sauce was given by ChiliheadEd….I think that was a 4.
My 2 cents worth. It is such a shame it the world we live with all the war, famine, disease, poverty, etc that we have to have hate where hate doesn’t have to be. Man up boys and let it go, it isn’t worth getting upset about. If you want to waste energy go to the cancer ward at a local hospital and spend all you got there. If you want to attack someone, sign up with the military I am sure they can find a nice spot for you.
You should be happy with who you are in life, and not try to sabotage another person in anyway way of form. Look in the mirror if you think your lives are so perfect and think before you type.

Sometimes people take the wrong road. If war is inevitable, then that is the way it is, but when you don’t have to fight, you shouldn’t.
These things are called ‘opinions’, some expressed a little more indelicately than others
Still, speaking them does not give them the weight of truth… which would be quite a bit, judging from the pics
I’ve never met Steve, but since he’s a fellow Hoosier and I’ve heard nothing but good about him (from all who have no connection in the slightest with the blog) I’ve no reason to doubt him. I doubt he’s even met Wes, and his review is well done at least.

“Thanks Parker, riding the Short Bus has taught me some great lessons.
1) Pick and choose what winder’s you lick carefully.
2) Never set by the kid that smells his finger’s..
3) Always make sure your helmet is on secure.
4) Everyone has a opinion, just remember it’s there opinion and thats it…
5) Family #1
Pretty simple rules by a pretty simple guy”.

I know…. your charging too much so I have to get as much time in as allowed. How about some new videos? The old ones are getting boring.
I gotta say though…..the video of you and that Giant Squash….You are insane……Danm!
Hey big, I am still waiting to try the serial killer, did you ship it yet?
My mullet flows freely in the wind- ask Nick and Laura!
Actually, it’s more like an anarchistic shag-pile than a mullet. No deep South for me! Strictly Southern CA.
Just thought I would throw in that completely meaningless tidbit into the conversation. Carry on.
Damn I thought you guys were actually arguing. I didn’t realize you were just trying to catch up to Huv on the comment count. My bad.

Ed,
Nope, I haven’t and I’m sorry.
I’m going to include some new stuff for you that I’m working on. Milder heat, but I’ll be interested to hear your thoughts on the flavour.
It’ll be shipping out end of this week though. Patience my friend, patience.
Sorry it’s taken so long, but I try not to rush perfection!! LOL

Hey UB…..It’s mostly my fault, I keep bugging him to a burn over the phone with him, and he keeps telling me he hasn’t recieved his yet. Sorry man!

No worries Parker,
He ordered a ways back and I’ve been waiting for this batch to finish marinating before sending anything out.
We had a huge response to the Serial Killer tasters (unwaxed) when we put them up for sale on the website.
I’ve got 5 ozers and 2 ozers now ready to hit the streets. Be afraid, be very…wait a minute you’ve already tried it, and video taped it. You know how hot it is.
Looking forward to Ed’s thoughts on the sauces though.
Do you think I could paypal you for anonther serial killer and just slip it in with Ed’s? He’s got a pile of sauces for me waiting to send. I’m just cheap and want to piggyback on his shipping. What do you think?
ChrisK and I tried it out a week or so ago, good job UB ! Good flavor, good burn…..and the waxed version is gorgeous! My son was nice enough to let us put it in his fancy smancy Hot Sauce Case that he just won here…. it looks great!
Hi Kristi
Wes, please cancel my reservation for your sauce. I read this thread from the beginning and you had contradicted yourself and have shown a very supercilious attitude to some very kind people that have tried to help you out, not the other way around. I’m not gonna get into a shouting match with you over this, so this will be my one and only post on the matter. Sorry, but anyone that boasts about someone in one breath, and then all but belittles them in the next just doesn’t sit right with me.
Ok, I’ve said enough, not all I would like, but enough. I’m done.
Oh, Leroy, I know you’re gonna ask:
supercilious
adjective
1. having or showing arrogant superiority to and disdain of those one views as unworthy; “some economists are disdainful of their colleagues in other social disciplines”; “haughty aristocrats”; “his lordly manners were offensive”; “walked with a prideful swagger”; “very sniffy about breaches of etiquette”; “his mother eyed my clothes with a supercilious air”; “a more swaggering mood than usual”- W.L.Shirer [syn: disdainful]
2. expressive of contempt; “curled his lip in a supercilious smile”; “spoke in a sneering jeering manner”; “makes many a sharp comparison but never a mean or snide one”

Hey Parker!
You know you have to watch out when writing things like “slip it in with Ed’s” and “piggyback on his…….”, Some could interpret that as HSB love connection #6! lol
Thanks for saving me a trip to Websters SF!!!

UB, you’re making something milder? I didn’t think it was possible! By the way, the Killer Lamb Newman made was… killer. Uber-hot! Can’t wait to try your next creation…
The 2 people he was commenting about he is on good terms with and was just kidding. It is called sarcasm.

Doesn’t matter if I understand or not- yours is just another opinion
I didn’t take it that Steve did the pork dish presented- the caption was uncredited so I didn’t see him as trying to pass it off as his own.
I appreciate the help you’ve been with the Charity Wes- thanks again!

It’s called “your clueless”. It’s called tooting your own horn because someone you’re trading off reviews with gives you a big ‘ol pat on the back and you don’t give a s*** who reads it. It’s sending out samples of a mango recipe to people asking their opinion on it because your trying something new, and then saying you’ve been doing it for 20 years. It’s about misleading people for your own benefit. It’s called I’ve said my peace, I was talkin’ to Wes, he knows what the f*** I was talkin’ about, I wasn’t talkin’ to you, so butt out.
Ok, now I’m done. Again.

Ethan,
Don’t forget I also make the Droolin’ Devil line. It’s in the door of your fridge, remember HSB cribs??
One must attempt to appeal to the masses, thus the milder, well some of them, Droolin’ line.
As far as the UBK line, we’ve got a couple of tricks up our sleeve don’t you worry. Can you saw UBK Lamb Marinade?? LOL.

Crap, I always forget that you make the Droolin’ Devil line too! The branding is so different it’s easy to forget. I retract my previous statement, because you definitely make some fine “milder” sauces ![]()

Well it’s about time we finally got some out your way.
I’m really glad you like the flavour, that’s tantamount in my thought process.
We’ve got great feedback on the Serial Killer bottles. I’m really pleased they went over so well.
I never did congratulate you ladies on the sexiest damn collectible with your amphora bottle. I wanted to use the same bottle, but didn’t and I’m glad you gals did it up as well as you did.
I should have one of those in my collection. Any left??
Some collectible cash might have just freed up from this cluster f*ck today. We’ll see. Let me know.

Not lookin’ for a fight here Buddah, it’s all good. You just caught me trying to hold my tounge and comment at the same time. Guess it’s impossible to do.
Just remember that gators bite, even the tame ones. Sorry I bit so hard man. Was meant to be just a nip.

Wasn’t Blane. TTF & HSB had nothing to with it either. You get pissy with Blane and then use the “I’m not posting here anymore” thing as if it means something. It means nothing. It means you’re selfish and not willing to work things out with anyone. I’ve been down this road too many times over uncalled for BS and I’m still around. Hell, me and CaJohn had a little misunderstanding once, but it’s all good now. Stuff happens. Then more stuff happens, eventually people forget about the stuff that happened. Well, except that night when Ryan and P……. Ok, so I won’t bring that one up. Point is, just keep moving forward man. Sucks to be in reverse all the time.

There’s more to this story than most people understand!!!! I have turned no one against you… I’m sorry that you feel the need to leave, but I guees if I couldn’t answer the few Questions I asked I would run also….
I know people will preceive me as the bad guy, but I’d rather that happen than seeing you con good friends of mine…
I tried to handle this off line, but there was little to no response…
And for the sauces, I thought you bought them for investment? Money doesn’t buy everything…

I’d pay to see that.
Pay per burn…you have to do the entire 5 oz bottle though….He he
I won’t pay for the EMT’s though…
This whole thing is amusing in one way and really sad in another…
The basic problem is that this is the internet and people say things to each other that they would never say face to face.
I think there is something to be said for humility. When you are truly the best, it is understood, it goes without saying.
If have you tell me you are the best, your product does not speak for itself.
My two cents….

First, I’ve spoken with Wes on the phone a few times and I’ve said nothing that I wouldn’t say to him on the phone or to his face.
Second,
I think there is something to be said for humility. When you are truly the best, it is understood, it goes without saying.
If have you tell me you are the best, your product does not speak for itself.

Very well said. I agree 100%.
since this is my last night posting..Lorenge frantic…I’m old school..with a good upbringing…I never say anything behind a person’s back..or the web that I would not say to their face…..
gee mabe I should pull a blane like on Taste The Fear

UB and Kris won’t Chrisk and Truth be upset.

I’ve been following HSB for a good while now and these pissing contests that keep coming up never cease to amaze me.
I think we need to make an HSB internet Soap Opera: “As the Hot Sauce Bottle Turns”
I guess we already have ![]()

Trying to read all this on my Blackberry last night was maddening - LOL. I just caught up.
I consider you both friends of mine, and i’ll call both of you later…. but no matter what Wes, it’s no reason not to post. THere have been some EPIC battles here, and everyone is clearly not friends on the blog, but that’s the way it goes in life.
Wes, I need your address so I can send the coinage. Email me please @ albuddah@yahoo.com, thanks.
