The fireplace store round the corner from me sells olive wood logs which are apparently excellent for cooking/smoking too.

Not allowed to open the BBQ till my birthday. Thats the rules :(

Isn't that ^ amazing?

Raided the tramp's buffet at Sainsbury's last night, Chinese slow roast pork belly for din-dins... Superb, crackling was wonderful...

that's just watered down sriracha - king of sauces.

crown prince of sauces:

I've seen that stuff pop up over the last year or so as a bit of a thing, then I realised it's just the Vietnamese chilli sauce that we all know and love... It's lovely and all but I don't really get the hysteria...

it's cos its hard to pronounce and mumsnet love it

Uni-Eagle or nuthin' IMO

I've got sriracha its not mega hot and rather over powers what you put it on i find. I will look up linghams though thanks

I'll check that out cheers

any of these should clear your passages > http://www.chileseeds.co.uk/chilli_sauces.htm

I'm a big fan of Encona hot sauces, loads of diff types and well cheap...

They actually look slightly scary.

I don't think you can go wrong with:

^ We always have a bottle of this in our house...

I think @dom uses that

I have been making my own hot sauce with habanero peppers, mixed vegetable pickles especially the carrots (from lebanese store), garlic, white vinegar , and chachere's cajun salt. For the garlic I roast it in a dry pan on the stove for a few minutes. then I blend it all and pour it into a bottle. It is good that way because I can adjust the heat/flavor myself.

Otherwise I like most of the melindas sauces.

especially this one

I would like to make my own actually, so a simple recipe would be good. Not sure which chilli to use if I did, I did wonder about Naga previously but then I tried mr Naga:

Wasn't amazed by the flavour, I thought it was rather sharp and acrid (probably becuase its a pickle. I would love to make it with these:

If i knew where to get them fresh, they've got a really nice warm rounded smoked flavour.

@Spotter I currently have about 30 different bottles of hot sauce.. I bloody love the stuff!

• Franks hot sauce is good so is the extra hot version.
  
• Melindas as above comes in several varieties, all I've tasted have been good.
  
• Pain is tasty: http://www.hotsauce.com/PAIN-100-Hot-Sauce-p/1343.htm
  
• Chipotle tabasco is good for a smokey hit.
  
• Cholula is awesome comes in normal and chipotle flavours: http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=259277592
  
• Raw Heat is ace, hot but fruity: http://www.originaljuan.com/hot-sauces/raw-heat-vintage-69-hot-sauce
  
  

I could go on all day.. Get thee to TK Maxx, they usually have some good ones on cheap.

I also make my own scotch bonnet chilli jam which is pretty ace, I'll give some to @Ecunard next time we meet up.

TK Maxx? Really?!

And I'd love to try some, thank you! She's not such a chilli head, but she suffers me spicing up everything with very good humor. She drew this for me a while ago:

I think if you get them fresh you will not find them smoky. That comes from the drying.

I am not sure if you have habaneros but scotch bonnets are pretty close and I think those are all over in your land. http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/173058.
