UPDATE: Support video (with Skyline Chili) now available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mYcfwIWFGQ Memory doesn't serve me well recalling where I came across this...it may have been one of the very few sauces I ordered from Amazon, but I also seem to think I saw it elsewhere on someone's shelf somewhere sometime...
In any case, we have yet another entry into the Louisiana-style sauce category, though this one is far closer to the runnier, watery version, ala Tabasco. The taste, thankfully, is not along those lines, but far more traditional. The bottle comes with a handy restrictor cap, which you definitely want, as this can get overpowering pretty quickly if you oversauce. This will add both a lot more astringency and more heat than may be desired, as this is one of the few Louisiana-style sauces that also packs a bit of a wallop, utilizing Jalapenos, Tabascos and Cayennes.
Apparently, there is something called Skyline chili, which this is also meant for and which piques my interest a bit, as using Louisiana-style sauce in a chili is not something I would normally consider. IF I find it, I will probably give it a go (not going to order it), but I certainly have not been using the sauce in that manner, but instead in the normal ways I typically use it and which it performs capably, though, as noted, one must be somewhat more judicio
us than normal when saucing.
Bottom line: Nothing ground-breaking here, but a strong entry into the Louisiana-style sauce category, that performs capably, though requiring a bit of caution.
