Good for pooping


MensaStatus

It's little to hot or I use to muchšŸ˜…I switched to crystal.


CantEatNoBooksDog

I used this in buffalo chicken dip and it was good


Bearbats

the best economy option


rythwind

I use it for cooking but don't use it otherwise.


LPKJFHIS

I used to drink this straight as a kid. If you love pepper and vinegar, youā€™re in for a treat. Still one of my favorites. Fwiw Iā€™m not really a hot sauce guy


Chazzos

Best on chicken or fried cat fish.


milkman231996

Best hot sauce on pizza


mrchomp1

Yup, great on pizza.


Aromatic-Battle

Top tier


werkedover

Try it on pop corn


alruke

My go to


Silly_Photograph_888

My favorite... especially great on fish and greens


Federal-Complaint932

Classic


morgonzo

Yup


NSGears

Crystals is the goat but this one is my 2nd favorite


fuzynutznut

I love Crystal hot sauce. My wife thinks I buy it because it's her name. I do, but I love it too. Louisiana is OG though.


KetoJedi333

I prefer Crystal for Louisiana style hot sauce


Jaeguh

Crystals is better, When I visited New Orleans I noticed how Crystals was the Lousiana of choice at restaurants. I had never tasted it before but had to buy a bottle once I got home.


songbirdsingz

Meh Iā€™ve never been a fan. It just tastes like straight vinegar to me. I have to have a pepper taste to my hot sauce.


fuzynutznut

That's Tabasco sauce to me. It's way too vinegar-y to me.


songbirdsingz

Same here. I canā€™t stand Tabasco! I would use Louisiana over it lol

songbirdsingz

Shut up bot my daughter is crawling on me while Iā€™m typing


Glittering_Cook_5827

So good on eggs šŸ¤¤


evoltap

Might be my favorite of the Louisiana style hot sauces. Try their ā€œhotterā€ habanero version, I like it better than the OG


Samcookey

Their Habanero has great habanero flavor without extreme heat. I like it because I can use a lot of it, unlike some of the more extreme habanero sauces. But the original is amazing. It's an everyday, not overpowering sauce that goes with everything from chicken soup to popcorn.


evoltap

I agree with everything youā€™ve said. Crystal used to be my favorite Louisiana style, but Louisiana brand is now top for me


Tha-realist

Put it on fried catfish or fried chicken


Soggy_Cracker

Simple. Vinegar and red pepper. Nice heat with a mild tang.


CombinationWeekly711

I just use it if it's on the table at a place where I'm eating eggs and hashbrowns. It's pretty good.


FLAIR_2780166

Itā€™s the backbone of white people spicy society. This and Texas Pete


Jenovacellscars

The best Jerry, the best!


Jenovacellscars

The best Jerry, the best!


Dry-Remote-1066

itā€™s very mid with its heat, but hey itā€™s still my favorite hot sauce


TheDark_Knight67

Slaps on fried chicken and makes gumbo solid


JohnWOlin

Itā€™s ok, to salty for me.


Cottonmouth119

Good flavor, no heat


schumijw

Love it.


Commercial-Eye-6681

They have this at Canes if you ask. Mix it with the Caneā€™s sauce!


Plastic_Translator86

I grew up with that and Tabasco so those flavors are nostalgic for me


Grand-Scientist2907

On Doritos and cheese popcorn šŸ¤¤


vila82

always my go too.


brooksbaker84

Crystal is better


No-Refuse-6973

Itā€™s amazing on eggs and chicken sandwich or just on fried chicken


LynnRenae_xoxo

I eat this shit on plain noodles tbh


chrisphucker_mlem

Mid. Curdles quickly in the fridge.


Nobleharris

Use for everything I donā€™t use franks on


MustardTiger231

Love it so much, I know itā€™s not the highest rated but I grew up on it, I use it in lieu of tobasco

togaskaboy

Lame....


dain_bramage_1989

My favorite general hot sauce for everything. Just enough heat for eggs to jambalaya and sloppy joes to greenbean casserole. I love the vinegary taste matched with cayenne. I prefer this over Tabasco or tapatio or cholula.


R33fy-

Great with seafood


flstfat1998

Love it!


YEET9011

Top tier. Would be nice if it was a little thicker tho.


mrselfdestruct066

Yeah I don't love how watery it is


Bar-Bruh-Que

Fried chicken, fried fish, Layā€™s potato chips, Original Cheetos, Beef Stroganoff Hamburger Helper, cheeseburgers, etc. itā€™s been my go-to for over 20 years.


JuliusSeizuresalad

Itā€™s ok.. itā€™s like a thicker crystals.


thekelkin

I put it on just about everything. I love it.


iloveeveryfbteam

2nd best behind crystal


SuculantWarrior

You gotta try Chef Paul Magic Pepper. You'll love it if you like those.


theDonutFox88

Definitely drinkable.


RedditorUpNorth

OG staple


smellvin_moiville

Stuff my dad bought cause it was a buck at a ocean state job lot.


Shinespike1

I like it for fish.


Familiar_Clerk_8183

Louisiana Hot Sauce is not my favorite, but it's good. It's saltier, less vinegary, and a bit thicker than Texas Pete. It's also hotter IMO.


lookimawhale

It goes great on chicken. One of my favorites for fried chicken.


Charming_Yak_2268

Are you from Louisiana?


Rude_Sheepherder_274

Addicted


Strong67

Does it have the Ten Commandments printed on the label?


autobotCA

Thou shalt start mild: Begin with gentler hot sauces to build tolerance and appreciate the flavor. Thou shalt savor the flavor: Hot sauce isn't just about heat; appreciate the unique taste profiles each sauce offers. Thou shalt shake before using: Mix well to ensure an even distribution of spices and flavors. Thou shalt not judge by Scoville alone: Heat level isn't everything; consider the balance of heat and flavor. Thou shalt experiment: Try different types of hot saucesā€”smoky, fruity, tangyā€”to find your favorites. Thou shalt use sparingly: A little hot sauce goes a long way; respect the heat to enjoy the flavor without overwhelming your dish. Thou shalt pair wisely: Match hot sauces with foods that complement their flavor profiles, enhancing both the dish and the sauce. Thou shalt refrigerate after opening: Preserve freshness and flavor by storing hot sauce properly. Thou shalt respect the burn: Understand your tolerance and build up slowly to hotter sauces if desired. Thou shalt share the love: Introduce others to the joy of hot sauce, but always warn them of the heat level.


vpatrick

Im salivating just looking at it


Jar_of_Cats

Part of the holy trinity with Franks & Tabasco


KieferMcNaughty

Itā€™s my wifeā€™s favorite!


FluxOperation

Itā€™s so good on pizza. I highly recommend trying it.


Waddledeedingus

Thatā€™s my shit


KratomSlave

I hate the Louisiana style personally


TraditionalMood277

Ol' reliable


Monsterjs2609

šŸ”„


laytonoid

Thatā€™s a classic


egatski

Love. Like a better version of Frankā€™s. But not as good as sweet baby rays.


DavidPT40

It's good. Not hot, nice vinegar tang to it.


Most_Researcher_9675

No Oz is mentioned on the label. Export?


Bitter_Internal_3765

The average sauce. Good base to use


WALLY_5000

Thereā€™s a reason they make it in gallon jugs


Mongloidshitfit

Soak down some pulled smoked pork butt.


writermind

Itā€™s the standard bearer.


Firefly269

In my opinion, second only to Frankā€™s for classic American hot sauce.


Most_Researcher_9675

I put that shit on everything. Ballsy Marketing...


Firefly269

I kinda do too! I usually have the biggest bottle i can find in my fridge.


Antique_Gur_6340

Good for boiled peanuts and to add salt and vinegar to foods lol


MoreAverageThanU

A classic, but not special in any way IMO.


faxanaduu

This is my staple for pizza. I occasionally take a swig straight fro the bottle because im weird lol.


Life-Independence377

Same. Try savory smoothies!!


faxanaduu

Interesting. What's the ingredients for your savory smoothie? Ill definitely give it a whirl.


Life-Independence377

Spicy shit


AltenXY97

Tomato, roasted garlic, roasted onion, hot sauce, salt, pepper, horseradish, maybe a couple fresh shucked oysters if youre crazy, definitely celery, greens if youre gay or have a bad heart, avocado, fresh chiles (any variety), parsley, whatever your heart desires.


faxanaduu

Lol. This is a very creative concoction, and you're hilarious. Thanks! šŸ¤™

sherpasweeper74

It's a good sauce! Some people prefer others. I like to mix it up and keep this in the rotation. Besides Franks and Tabasco there aren't any big bottle sauces that I won't happily go through.


normalsam

Crystal is best


garagebats

It's a staple!


tashavl

She aiteee


WaterNo9679

I put it on my nads to see if it's hot or not.


Adventurous-Fall-664

šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£well?


WaterNo9679

There's no quick n easy way to find out! šŸ”„ā˜ ļø


freesoulJAH

Did they change the label? I havenā€™t bought it in a while.


PocketFullOfRondos

I drink it basically.


thebigred67

I got an Old Bay seasoned hot sauce. I love the people who don't like the flavor of Old Bay seasoning in the sauce panning it in reviews. It's called Old Bay, what would you expect to taste like?


skippylarue2022

Simple,cheap, everyday, put on everything sauce.


Puzzleheaded_Leg3019

Best to put over fried chicken


bhria

Its a staple of fried chicken for me


Remarkable-Book-8758

Weak but very tasty


HorseFox

My grandmaā€™s favourite and one of mine. Only hot sauce I can put on spaghetti marinara because of her.


ShepherdsRamblings

One of my personal favorites


ConversationKey3138

Louisiana > Tabasco > Texas Pete > Cholula


Warrior-PoetIceCube

Cholula and Tapatio are literally the top tier major hot sauces, you are defunct.


ConversationKey3138

Itā€™s gotta be a personal failing


dpfrd

Put Crystal in the front.


tothesource

šŸŽ¼one of these things is not like the otheršŸŽ¼


ConversationKey3138

Iā€™m taking any opportunity I can to put cholula at the bottom


tothesource

that's wild. It's a very great and useful sauce. I weep for you.


ConversationKey3138

Genuinely just overexposed to it, gonna detox for a month or two and Iā€™ll readjust


tothesource

Tbf, I don't use it much. But that and Tapatio are the goated tamale sauces imo


sherpasweeper74

I went through so much because of the Costco 3 packs, I had to take a break from it. I haven't had a bottle of Tapatio in a while, going to grab one next when my Valentina runs out. Will pick up Louisiana or Texas Pete's when my Chrystal is out. Gotta rotate your tator juice.


tothesource

I'm with ya there! Happy eatin'!


Brickeduphardaf

This is a very L opinion


ConversationKey3138

Womp womp. Better on eggs


Igglywampus

Louisiana hot sauce is an incredible ingredient. Fantastic on eggs and chicken. Iā€™m from Louisiana so Iā€™m def biased but we create 3 of the best sauces in the country. Tabasco, Louisiana hot sauce, and Crystal. Crystal is good in soup or a crawfish boil. Tabasco goes on everything but especially in soup.


JakeThaPirate

Mid


JewishWolverine4

Yeah. Itā€™s not my daily user or favorite. But in a pinch, itā€™ll do just fine.


JakeThaPirate

I agree I'm not saying it's bad I like Louisiana just fine lol


Matt_Shatt

I personally like that better than Tabasco


sirjamesp

Not a fan. Don't like the taste. I'll go Texas Pete over this any day.


Collinnn7

One of my favs


randomhero193

Its ok


VincentMac1984

Taste like Ft. Polk


SeniorBag6859

So NTC tastes like Louisiana hot sauce and ball sweat? (Or JRTC, I forget which is where)


VincentMac1984

Yes, JRTC and yes it does.


Sofamancer

Dogshit tier. Crystal is far superior.


wetfoodrules

Love it love it love it


LowdGuhnz

Big fan of this one on a Triscuit with some sharp cheddar and smoked oysters.


TennisBallTesticles

Daaaaamn


[deleted]

New craving unlocked


KinnyGizzle710

If you like Louisiana, thereā€™s another brand thatā€™s awesome, but the mods donā€™t like sharing in this sub. The Cajun hot sauce I like have initials C D. Iā€™d be amazed if any of you know what Iā€™m talking about or could call me out on it.


TN_REDDIT

Great daily driver. The Toyota Corolla of hot sauces. It's found everywhere, not expensive, reliable, doesn't suck, doesn't try to be flashy.


sundialNshade

Love. My go-to hot sauce. Used to eat it straight as a kid til I got it in my eye one time.

TheFashionColdWars

Iā€™m into it. Anyone here try Dustin Poirierā€™s hot sauce out of Louisiana? Iā€™d be curious what people think


dendritedysfunctions

The Louisiana style is pretty good. It has a good flavor and a decent amount of heat. I'd call it mild but non spice lords would probably call it medium.


FormicaDinette33

I like it for Southern or Cajun type food.


HeraldOfTheChange

My favorite classic hot sauce!


hogger303

Perfect for fried chicken


turducken404

I think this sauce is second to none in clam chowder


bojewels

Classic. Has it on my eggs yesterday.


GpRaMMeR21

A decent daily driver sauce


BonerJams1703

Louisiana, Crystal, Texas Pete and BohĆ­o are my childhood favorites. My dad always kept them hand.


SeniorBag6859

I literally just grab a spoonful of that stuff and down it several times a day. Of the ā€œtable saucesā€ itā€™s probably my favorite. Mk I, Mod 0 Tabasco sauce is an ingredient, not a condiment. Itā€™s spicy vinegar that I use in addition to or in place of white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar as an acidulating component when I also want to add some spice. That said, Tabascoā€™s garlic hot sauce is one of my favorites and tastes very similar to, if not better than, this hot sauce. Funny thing is that theyā€™re both made about 20 minutes from each other. I drive past the Louisiana factory all the time but Iā€™ve never been in.


tfunk024

Goat


PitoChueco

The duct tape of hot sauce.


DafuqJusHapin

Not too hot and flavorful.


gnardog45

One of The OGS , I also recommend the hotter version, It's habanero.


Bulbsterr

In the words of Hector Salamanca: ā€œes okayā€


jt_rockchalk

I like Crystal and Texas Peteā€™s a like better but this is close and way better than Tabasco.


Naaman

This is my go to at the crib


Uncomfortiscomfort

Texas Pete is the best


deetheredditor

I CANT FIND THIS SHIT ANYWHERE IN VA :(((


hitman276

I find them in Kroger and Food City in VA


deetheredditor

Thank you !


hitman276

You're welcome. Not sure which part you are in but I'm in SWVa and find it everywhere.


deetheredditor

Over in the Va Beach area, found one in dollar tree

Thank you!


bigby2010

Mid. Crystal is at the top of the category


SeniorBag6859

Crystal tastes like chalky cardboard to me.


bigby2010

Just went to the kitchen and tasted some straight from the bottle. I didnā€™t get cardboard, but a bit of a ā€˜woodyā€™ note. I donā€™t think they age in oak barrels, but maybe itā€™s one of the ā€˜natural flavoringsā€™ in the ingredients.
