That is a great one.

Favorite flavor of Cholula is Chili Garlic. That’s probably my favorite all-time hot sauce, period. (And I don’t ever use it since I can’t anymore.)

Now I’ve lost my appetite for Little Debbies. ☹

This is a great idea, but an even better idea is to make half the burger out of onions.

Not only that, but the owners really showed their behinds during the pandemic; I haven’t been back since. It’s a shame; for non-smoked Eastern NC barbecue, it was pretty good.

Some of the best smoked pulled pork I’ve ever had came from Prime Smokehouse in Rocky Mount. The waitress warned our group as she was seating us that the meats were really, truly smoked and had a very strong flavor. 🙂

And since this is a thread about hot sauces…my favorite was a gochujang sauce/paste made by Coconut Secret, but it seems to be out of production now.
