We ranked Trader Joe’s hot sauces and only cried a little bit in the process
NO.5 Sriracha Sauce
? Not spicy at all, just tasty
This hot sauce was a total surprise. It’s nothing like the ubiquitous “Red Rooster” Sriracha, which is a good thing. Trader Joe’s brand doesn’t have a strong sour flavor. Instead, spicy, sweet, and acidic notes mingle very well for a balanced sauce. It’s a good accompaniment for Asian food like rice and ramen noodles.
Gator Hammock Swamp Gator Hot Sauce
The best hot sauce for something spicy and full of flavor is Gator Hammock Swamp Gator Hot Sauce. The complex flavors that make up the spicy sauce include banana, jalapeño, hammock, serrano, and habanero peppers. The vinegar-base sauce is quite spicy but doesnt completely overtake your taste buds so you cant taste anything else youre eating or drinking, which is a definite win in my book.
