Man do I love datil peppers. The vinegar is great on fries. Very similar to Steak n Shake. Excited to try the sauce on the far left. That and the blue bottle I’ve never had. I live in Central IL. Can’t ever find datil hot sauce up here.
My grandparents lived in St. Augustine, got me hooked on datil peppers back in the 80’s I guess, when I was a kid. Datil Do It was the first one I remember – kinda like spicy ketchup. They moved up here in the early 90’s so I lost my hookup by the time I was in high school. I probably went 20-25 years without having any datil sauce, and then e-commerce made everything available again. Now, I used Hellish Relish on my hot dogs the other day, and I keep a bottle of Devil Drops in my office for lunches. I’ve kept that stuff stocked for a long time – combination of taste and nostalgia for me.
