Dave's Original Insanity Hot Sauce - 5oz

I ate all the bread I could find. I wiped out every square inch of my mouth with a napkin. All in an attempt to ease the heat. It helped only a bit.

After about 2 hours, I was almost back to normal.

It is that hot. I would think that only 1 drop would heat up a pot of chili. DO NOT try this straight from the bottle. It won't kill you, but is will wound you. Wow.


perfect   January 11, 2007
having experimented with several hot sauces over several years including pyro diablo and snakebite habanero extract i can confidently say that this is the tastiest and hottest sauce i have ever used. my only regret is that it is that it is nearly impossible to apply in small enough quantities leaving my eyes bleeding after every use. perfect 5


If it doesnt make your eyes sweat, its not hot enuf!   March 30, 2007
That is my husbands' view; he's the one who eats habanero peppers like they're radishes!!- he love's this sauce; he adds it to his own salsa blends to make them hot enough to melt your tonsils... he has quite a following for his home-made sauces. When he can't get fresh habeneros he uses Dave's to turn up the heat.


Good if you like hot sauce.   August 22, 2008
If you're the type of person who's ever complained that the food you ordered in a restaurant was "too hot" this is not the sauce for you. If Frank's Red Hot tastes like anything other than salted vinegar to you, it's not the sauce for you. I put it on pretty much everything I eat. There are hotter sauces out there, but the ones I've seen tend to be oily and messy. However, even if it ends up being too hot for you, you can still add it to other, weaker, more flavorful hot sauces to make them effective. People complain about the flavor (or lack thereof) but that's what makes it so versatile. It's basically just hot, meaning you can use it on just about anything without making it taste like it's drowning in hot sauce.

Ok folks, this is not a joke. I am a real fan of hot sauce, hot peppers and anything that makes my eyes water, and I have to honestly say that Dave's Insanity Sauce is absolutely the hottest thing I've ever tasted. I use one drop in about 25 ounces of home-made tomato sauce and it makes the sauce noticibly hot. This is NOT a sauce to dash into your soup or to liven up some salsa. DON'T USE IT LIKE TABASCO!!! It is a heavy-duty hot sauce that should be used as in ingredient when cooking a decent amount of a dish. My brother doubted its powers so I poked the end of a toothpick into the sauce and gave it to him. The poor guy freaked and ate more Italian bread than I've ever seen anyone eat in my life. This bottle will last you a long time. Why doesn't it get 5 stars? It's just too hot.
