huh? no one--NO ONE views PBR as a top tier product. You are confusing its recent popularity with a validation of quality. It is popular precisely because it is shitty.
Sriracha's the Pabst Blue Ribbon of hot sauces. It use to be ghetto but somehow both are now viewed as top tier products. I wonder what will be next, Spam probably. I could just see people eating Spam with Siracha on it while drinking a PBR. There's a reason it comes in big ass quart beer like sized bottles. Good hot sauces never come in bottles that big.
Your chili peppers and difficult to make are kind of off, I mean look at beer. It doesn't cost 4x as much to make Arrogant Bastard as it does Miller, but it sure as shit cost 4x as much. And it's probably no more difficult to make. Some people will pay more for what they perceive as higher quality products.

I make tons and tons of burritos, and sriracha is on every one. If I forget it I miss it.Sriracha is one of those things that I think about often as I'm eating, but almost never remember to pick up from the grocery store. It's probably been 7-10 years since I've had any.
Obviously some people are viewing it as a top product, where I eat it costs $7.50 for a 24oz can, that's teetering on Stone prices. Are you telling me people think it's shitty but are spending more on it than a lot of beers which are superior? I work at a store that sells it, and can tell you from selling dozens of 24oz cans a day there are plenty of people absolutely don't think of it as a shitty beer.
That is not true. You can find lots of good beer in large amounts.I don't know specifics, but I know low quality shit is usually available in big ass bottles and the good shit almost never is. Look at beer, you can get a 40oz of Bud Lite. You won't see a 40oz of a good beer.

Also, beer prices have been increasing steadily over the years due to seasonal and long-term hops shortages. I'd like to see the price of a 24oz Stone at that very same place that is charging $7.50 for 24oz PBR.
I think I am one of the few people that don't actually like Sriracha. It is bland. I've had it years, and have always preferred other sauces.
There are far tastier peppers (a habanero for example) that yield much better sauces. However, I generally keep some on hand, so I can spice up other things without ruining the flavor. Tzatziki with some Sriracha is pretty good.
There are different sauces for different purposes. I have about 5 different hot sauces that I use for different things, I like Sriracha for its mild chili flavor, Louisiana Hot Sauce (it is similar to Franks, but I prefer it for use other than wings) for its completely different vinegary chili flavor, I have a scorpion pepper sauce that is about as hot as anything Ive ever tasted and is amazing on eggs. I have also have a hot sauce that is popular in Texas which is literally made by just filling a jar with locally picked wild Pequin peppers and then filling it with white vinegar and is absolutely necessary for the proper enjoyment of black eyes or butter beans.
Sheesh. I can get a 30 pack of PBR at Sams Club for around $16. That's my cheap "just got done with yardwork" beer.
bastard, they stopped selling PBR at my costco. I need to check back to see if they're in again.
Franks is tomato sauce masqarading as a hot sauce
Nope. Have you? I been to Hong Kong couple of times and always eat dim sum and gyoza (same thing) and it's dirt cheap. I live in the UK and all the ingredients are shit. It's just not the same.
Yes, I have made dumplings. But now I am too lazy. I can buy 2lbs of decent frozen dumpling for like 5 bux. They are hand made too, just not my hands.
My guess is Hot sauce is a condiment not a main fucking ingredient.
Well there are different versions, the stock basic one is like half as hot. The "hot" version, while not as hot as sriracha, can be fairly listed as a mild sauce. Anything below that would indeed be tomato sauce.
I just looked and officially original Tabasco sauce is hotter than sriracha...so it's definitely not the end all of sauces. Tabasco has quite a few flavors much hotter, and they even have a chipotle version.
I don't think Tobasco is hotter than Sriracha, but I couldn't find proof. What is the scoville rating of it?
