List Your Top Three Hot Sauces

The family is growing.

Tapatio is sort of like Cholula + more spice. Agree?
 
Valentina (Like a mild tapatio, almost enchilada sauce.) Gets a lot of use in my Mexican dishes.

Crystal (or red devil, or franks if it's on sale, or trappey's. They all taste pretty similar.) for my southern style cooking.

Sriracha is a go-to for Asian food. But I generally just either use spicy curries and seasonings at home or order the dish spicy and let the chef use whatever capsaicin containing concoction they care to create.

Tabasco chipotle deserves special mention too.

1. Blair's original death hot sauce (the mildest one in the bunch)
2. Marie Sharp's Hot Sauce (from Belize)
3. Sriracha (Huy Fong)
 
Huy Fong Sombal (much better than sriracha but perhaps not really a hot sauce)
Cholula Chipotle
Louisiana hot sauce

Although I am often more likely to use a salsa over a hot sauce for anything other than Asian food.
 
Frank's, Sriracha and Louisiana in no particular order. There is a guy who sells his own concoctions at the local flea market and has a garlic habanero that trumps all the commercial sauces I've tried.
 
Sriracha (Huy Fong)
Dave's Scorpion
Texas Pete (we always have it around--it's my wife's favorite)

I just finished a bottle of Irazu Volcanic Pepper, which was really good. For now, the Scorpion is carrying the chemical-weapon load.
