Look at this beauty!
Label: The bottle is large 12oz.! What a bargain! The label is mainly yellow which is perfect since it sticks out due to the color of the sauce being red. Towards the top and the bottom of the label it fades to orange then to red. In the middle of the label is an angry looking face that reminds me something computer generated from yahoo or aol. I think this is a great touch since it shows that this is a new modern sauce! On the bottom is a caption that it is XXX Hot!. Then again, many hot sauces say this so we will have to wait and see.
Ingredients: Red Habanero Peppers, Vegetable Juice, Yellow Onion, Water, Lemon Juice, Distilled Vinegar, Sea Salt, Corn Starch, Spices.
Appearance: The sauce is bright red colored representing red habaneros. I like this since it reminds me of some of my favorite caribbean red sauces. Seeds are visible as well as pepper flesh. I can also see some garlic and onions blended up. Some large black flakes are present which are probably peppercorns ground up. The consistency is medium. So far this sauce has all the appearances that it will be something to remember.
Odor: After twisting opening the cap I am able to smell fresh red habanero’s and onions. I like it because it seems super fresh and natural. There is a small trace of vinegar mixed with vegetable and lemon juice. Concentrating now, I do smell garlic as well. No extracts are detected by my nose [ (AKA The Bloodhound of Scoville
].

Taste: After applying this to a chicken taco and digging in I was hit with both heat and flavor at the same time. The taste is somewhat of a puree with the perfect combination or ratio of ingredients to make it have a superb flavor. The habanero is the main flavor with just a tad bit of vegetable juice to give it some consistency. The onion and garlic are great and goes great with the chicken taco. I would love to have this sauce on pizza, chicken cutlets, heros, wings, etc. I love that there is not that much salt present either.
Heat:I felt the heat right away. It really built too and lasted for quite a while. I did get an endorphin rush after a few tacos. I had to finish 2 bottles of water. This is really up there in one of the hottest natural sauces.
Final Thoughts: This is one of the best red sauces made in the U.S in a while. It is up there with CaJohns and Mild to Wild’s red sauces. I would put this in my top 10 for sure. I am going to have to go back to my list and take something out to add this in. It is that good! I was thinking that I would need to add some Naga Jolokia flakes to my tacos but there was no need for that. The heat lasted for a good time and did built. The flavor of the sauce didn’t take away from the flavor of my chicken tacos. The finest ingredients have to be used here. I don’t know what the hell is going on in Idaho but I need to get there soon because something other than potatoes is sure as hell growing there!!! What is in that soil? A 12 oz. bottle of this stuff is a steal! It’s like walking into a store buying a filet mignon only to find out that you get 2 lobsters free with it!!
Packaging 10/10
Aroma 9.5/10

Appearance 10/10

How do you “see some garlic and onions blended up” and “smell garlic as well” when I dont see garlic in the ingredient list?
Only thing can be if its garlic powder and it falls under “spices”.
Chris, either nick omitted it in the ingredients list or its an oversite on the label.
I better double check the label! But this sauce does have minced garlic in it.
Scotty B
I have not had this sauce YET, but what I have had from ScottyB’s has been great. The high score does not suprise me at all.
Scotty B’s sauces have consistently been very good! Looking forward to trying this one!
Obliveon is still my favourite from his line-up!
Wow, yet another almost perfect 10, when the Goon likes a sauce he sure pulls out all the stops.
I’m leaving the house for a 14 hour day at a trade show and won’t be seeing any replies to this comment nor commenting back, so I’m sure I’ll take a sh*t kicking over this, but that’s the nature of the beast. So here goes…
I can’t help but notice something about the naming conventions that are being used in this line of sauces.
As most of you know, I have my line of milder sauces, Droolin’ Devil Fine Foods, established 5 years ago. I start posting on Hot Sauce Blog and get a near perfect review on my entire line of Droolin Devil products, and not too soon after Scotty B comes out with “Devil’s Drool”.
Danny Cash has the long established and very popular “Ragin’ Red” hot sauce and now Scotty has “Red Rage”.
Is it just me, or is there a trend happening there? Coincidence?
Have a great day everyone, I hope everyone is doing well.

Thanks for the clarification Scotty.
But this isnt the first time GN has done a review that says “I can taste the…” and it isnt on the ingredients list. I dont have time to look back through all the reviews for a specific example, but I remember one in which it was stated “I can taste the extract” and there was no mention of it in the ingredients??? Im just asking cause if it just tastes like… then thats each persons opinion. But if it state “I can taste the…” then it should be in there. Guess its the wording.
Maybe Im picky, but I felt I had to ask.

Yes that was Acid Rain Limited Edition… It doesn’t have extract on the ingredients list but I clearly tasted it and was able to smell it.

Anthony, thanks for your kind words about our product, and yes, we’ve been told the Garlic Chili sauce is addictive!! Yet another victim!
Just to make sure everyone knows, our company is Droolin’ Devil Fine Foods and our products are Droolin Devil, not Devil’s Drool, although there is a Devil’s Drool meter on the side of the product.
We don’t want to step on anyone’s toes, especially Scotty B. We’ve seen his picture on HSB, he appears not be a man to mess with! LOL.
Check out our website @ www.droolindevil.com for the HSB promo package pricing later today.
We’re working on a package specifically for the HSB gang.
Have a fiery day!!
Red Rage is a coincidence, hell with all the hot sauces out there it’s hard not to copy someone’s name or have something that sounds familar to it
Oh! and while your at it Craig why not mention “Smokey Chipotle” or Green with envy.
Sounds like somebody still alittle cranky! you couldn’t resist AH!
It only takes seconds to Google a prospective name…
Save EVERYONE a lot of grief guys!
You tell them BIGDADDY
I noticed that everyone seems to treat “Extract” like lose kind of Cheap Shortcut to making stuff HOT. If you all Hate it soom much, why do most or all of you use or sell it?

Using each others names to sell your hot sauces…. - Solution: Start all your lables with….Your Name….WoW, what an Idea…. If you people only buy sauces because of their cheap names and not the reputation of the products, how can you expect anyone to buy them. I don’t know about you guys, but when I go to the Super Market and am stairing at about 100 differnt lables of the same dam product, 9 out of 10 times I buy the Cheapest Priced one, I try it, If I like it, It’s my New Favorite Product. I guess some RICH people don’t care about Price, but if i still got it right, Most people are NOT RICH !

**Newman’s Sauce Name Generator**
choose one from column A then B then C
A B C
Satan’s Hot Ass
Devil’s Painful Breath
Monkey’s Red Toes
Dragon’s Flaming Eyes
Bull’s Burning Bush
Then just put ‘em all together (i.e Bull’s Burning Bush)
it looked better before I sent it, there were bigger spaces between the columns. Oh..well it was worth a try.

What about Side Effects Possible, Pitch Black Mamba, Uncle Dave’s Insanity Killer Hot Sauce.
Thats a pretty good idea Newman.
I wrote a heavy metal band name generating program a year or so ago. I think I’m going to dig it up and modify it to create hot sauce names. If it spits out some good ones I’ll post them.
Words I should add: ass, devil, hot, blazing, scorching, red, flaming….
Alright Newman, in your honor here’s the results of the first run of the random hot sauce name generator program I just wrote.
I make no claims as to the suitability of these for use in an actual hot sauce product
Now all I have to do is make it do a Google search for each one and see how many hits the search gets….HA

That would be a hoot.
We could go crazy with this really. I could extend it to put together random ingredient lists, maybe grab a random picture of a devil or flames or whatever, and actually create a random generated label.
I want a concept “credit” on that label. ![]()

John,
This is my point exactly.
Now I have to get to get back to work on my Uncle Big’s Selected Puree line and my new soft drink Cola Coca. No resemblance to anything out there is there??
Nobody has used that exact combination of words yet, or have they??
See what I mean.
I could go for a frosty “PhD Pepper” right now.

Scotty, Scotty Scotty,
Thanks for taking the time to dig up that information, but your point is moot. I’m sure you had to do a lot of mousing around to find all of those posts.
If you want to split hairs as part of your defense and air the dirty laundry then fine, so here goes.
My first exposure to HSB was in November of 2005 when Anthony reviewed Uncle Big’s Killer Hot Sauce.
From there, in subsequent posts under other topics, I mentioned Droolin’ Devil Fine Foods several times, some of which I have trapped in PDF form and have used in marketing literature on my personal blog.
You and I actually first corresponded in December of 2005 about Droolin’ Devil and what we do up here in Canada and you and I discussed distributing your product.
Your new sauce “Devil’s Drool” then debuted on HSB in January 2006. Coincidental use of a derivative of Droolin’ Devil in your product was then first dismissed and no issue was taken on my part. But now, again, my eyebrow raised and I just thought I would get other people’s take on things.
According to Oxford’s Dictionary there are at least 250,000 words in the English language and for the same two words to end up joined together (although as part of a variation of one word) is, well, pretty slim odds.
I am a very strong defender of intellectual property as we have been ripped off before on some of our marketing before and it irks me to no end when I feel it is happening.
As a good example of integrity, a dried spice maker contacted us to see if it was OK for him to use the words “Droolin’ Dragon” because he thought it was very close to our Droolin’ Devil company name. I was very thankful for the contact and give them very much respect for doing so.
As far as me being “cranky” about anything, I’m not sure why you would assume that. You apologized personally (several phone calls to my house) as well in a public forum to me for your drunken RX fueled comments made on my last Uncle Big review. We’re cool.
I don’t have time to worry about petty this squabbles like this and my post was not me being spiteful, petty or “cranky”.
We have discussed these similarities man to man before (yes Green with Envy has been used by Droolin’ Devil for over 5 years now if you must bring it up) and we had an understanding that you meant no duplication of our company name with Devil’s Drool.
Again, you and I are square so you can squash any thoughts of me being “cranky”.
By the way, I need some wholesale pricing on Berries in Heat, so shoot me an email with it.

Hi Bill, have you tried the Habby Horse yet? If not, give it a go. As for all-purpose, people use the wing sauce on everything from tofu to deer repellant. If that isn’t all-purpose…LOL!
But on a serious note, you never know what is brewing in the Inner Sanctum…
