About this deal

When you see a chilli you don’t recognise, research it’s uses and try and get an idea of which recipes or food it will work well with to make sure you’re buying a hot sauce which will fit your favourite flavour profiles. While competitive chilli eating has existed for years in the US, Canada, the UK and Australia among predominantly white men between the ages of 20 and 45, it’s become more mainstream and organized through social media and events like New York’s massive Hot Sauce Expo, Albuquerque’s Fiery Foods Show and Smokin’ Ed’s Pepper Eating Challenge in Fort Mill, South Carolina. I wondered how Da Bomb’s makers, Spicin Foods, were building on its popularity. I should have guessed: Jeff Hinds, president of Spicin, says the company cranked the heat, developing even hotter versions of the wretched stuff. A Middlesbrough pizzeria is offering customers the chance to sample one of the hottest sauces on the planet with their food - but you'll have to sign a disclaimer first. Knowing your pepper flavours will help you out here too, as you can begin choosing sauce based on pepper flavours you know you love! Price

That said because the extract it uses is significantly spicier even than most readily available hot sauce extracts, it’s likely that Regret is the hottest hot sauce on the market. Why don’t we know how hot the hottest hot sauces are? The type of pepper may also give you an indication of how hot the sauce is going to be, as chilli’s like Ghost and Carolina Reaper aren’t commonly found in cuisine – as they have simply been bred to blow your head off! Flavour You may see some hot ‘sauces’ marketed as even hotter than this, but anything approaching 1,000,000 units or over is usually so powerful that it’s actually less of a condiment and more of a seasoning/additive only. But in hot sauce, that capsaicin extract is greatly diluted with other ingredients like vinegar, spices, and citrus juice. And in fact, pepper extracts are never intended for direct consumption, their purpose is to be added to other food items to increase their spice level. The hottest hot sauce we know of (2023) Beware though, not every hot sauce has a Scoville rating, as they must be officially tested to get one.This is a good starting point for working out your required heat level, as if a raw jalapeno is far too hot for you, you’ll want to look for sauces under 5,000 SHU. For example, if a sauce label tells you it’s only to be used sparingly and as a food additive only – please take heed! Creeping out of my abode, I swiftly silently slither into the bathroom, ready for a peaceful bowel movement in the wee hours of the morning. It’s largely driven by ego, showing off and a fondness for thrill-seeking, says Troy Primeaux, owner of Primo’s Peppers and the developer of the 7 Pot Primo, another one of the world’s hottest peppers at 1,473,480 Scoville heat units (SHU). Given some of the dangerously high Scoville scores on this list, it’s a reasonable question and the answer is both yes and no.

Featuring a scary graphic of the eponymous Dr Burnorium (who is essentially Monopoly’s Rich Uncle Pennybags on acid), this 70% pepper gift set comes in a brilliant die-cut gift box, which is the ideal present for the spice fiend in your life. Let’s face it, a life without hot sauce would be a boring and bland one, and once you’ve earned your stripes with a couple of low-Scoville charters, it’s time to start chasing the dragon and begin sampling sauces so hot they were probably crafted by Beezlebub himself. Now, why do we say it “appears to be” the hottest hot sauce in the world? Because we don’t actually know how spicy it is! I’ve just had a dab of it about the size of a baby’s fingernail and it feels like someone’s pierced my tongue with a sparkler. Yeaaaaah, everything seems to be going alright. You see that Ghost Chili and are like, “Oh, dis gonna be hot!” Then habaneros and are like, “Oooh, extra hot!” Then, 12 million scoville chilli oleoresin. ……… WHAT!?! For reference, a jalapeno is something like 2,500 – 8,000. Pepper X, the hottest pepper currently around, is a little over 3,000,000. So, in this tiny bottle, we have enough heat to be equivalent to 4 Pepper X peppers. Heee-yah!It should go without saying that if you’re not into extreme hot sauces, then Elijah’s Xtreme Regret is likely not very usable for you. Sure, you can enjoy a few drops here or there, but you’re likely better off with a hot sauce more inline with your heat balance. The minute you open the bottle, you get a delicious sweet smell. It’s that mix of carrots, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, and sugar (along with the fruitiness of those Chinense chilies) that are front and center with the aroma. Suggested dishes: augmenting bbq sauces, chilis, and other such things that aren’t quite hot enough for you.

The first time I tested the hot sauce, it was 3 days ago on a roast beef sandwich I made myself for lunch. Being the hot sauce freak that I am, and a daring one at that, I put a healthy splash on, about a tablespoons worth. Holding the sandwich inches away from my face, I gave up all doubt and dove in, taking a crunchy bite. The sauce tasted smoky at first, then disappointing as it turned out to have the same bitter carrot flavour as other spicier hot sauces. Whilst the taste of it was quite bad, the heat was amazing, hotter than a raw fresh ghost pepper, enough to bring me to tears and scorch my whole mouth. The blaze lasted about 10 minutes after the food was eaten, a little longer than it took me to clean up after myself. Inside you’ll find three hot sauces which each show off the power of a different pepper, letting you savour and sweat out all the intensity of a ghost, red savina or habanero chilli.I’m a better version of me today. You guys don’t know how my life has changed for the better in the last year,” he says, explaining that his family life has improved, he’s fallen in love and has a thriving YouTube channel. Well, it’s quite simple really, as surviving a seriously hot sauce and living to tell the tale takes courage, daring and a massive set of cojones, something the male species has always prided itself on having since the days of the caveman. On the sodium: There’s 100 mg per teaspoon serving, or 4% of your daily value. Granted, sauces this hot, how likely is it you’re using so much of this to worry too much on the overall salt. For most, a few drops is plenty. Heat Balance Now you may find yourself asking, “what? That’s it? I thought he would get obliterated by the hot sauce, scream while smoke spews from his ears and we would all have a good laugh.” Worry not dear friends, for I am a fool who will feel the wrath of my actions soon enough. Bear with me.

Regret uses 12 million Scoville oleoresin (similar to extract) as its main heat source, which is often misinterpreted and misrepresented as the hot sauce scoring 12 million SHU. It uses 12 million SHU oleoresin, but that SHU is diluted by its other ingredients including: tomato, cider vinegar, bourbon, garlic, lime, ghost pepper, habanero, salt, and herbs.There are innumerable types of challenges and products involved, sometimes with increasingly spicy raw pods, others with super-hot gourmet chocolate or gummy bears or tortilla chips, or a combination of all of the above. The most difficult has to be the extract challenges, where competitors eat tubes or chug bottles of extra-high concentrations of already overly hot peppers. Despite the fact that it sent actor Idris Elba into a coughing fit, made the chef Gordon Ramsay cry tears of agony and Oscar-winner Charlize Theron said it tastes like “battery acid”, I too was drawn to trying Da Bomb, one of the worst-reviewed sauces on the planet. When I was notified that my local hot sauce e-store had finally received new inventory (it consistently sells out), I pulled the trigger. Waseem’s partner, Paul Ouro, and fellow UK competitor Matt Tangent are the founders of the League of Fire, an elaborate global ranking system where points are allocated to competitors when they successfully complete challenges. Until the League of Fire was established, the community was disparate and disjointed, and there was no official ranking of competitors. Da Bomb Ground Zero measures at 321,003 SHU, and Da Bomb the Final Answer comes in at 1.5m SHU. At Spicin’s tasting bar in Kansas (which is open through the pandemic), chilli-eaters have to be 18 or over and sign a waiver to try “the Source” – which is recommended to be used one drop at a time and not “around children or pets” – at an astonishing 7.1m SHU.
