How to Pair Hot Sauce with Food | Hot Ones Extra

One of the most common questions in the Hot Ones mailbag is, "What hot sauce should I put on my lunch!?" Since Sean Evans can't reply to every photo of pizza and steak sent his way, he hooked up with the Hot Ones chili guru Noah Chaimberg of Heatonist to provide a masterclass that you can apply to ALL your meals. Time to get out of your Sriracha holding pattern and crank up the heat!

Thank you Sean for all you do. You are the premier spokesman for hot sauces and bring tremendous passion and energy to the industry.

[@ericandkyle]

Can you do an episode on how to reduce butthole burn?

[@caseybrooks]

Eric Does The Internet fiber pills/supplements. Changed my world.

[@Andrei-tx2xk]

I never have any butthole burns after eating spicy food. guess I'm lucky?

[@TokeTaker420]

Andrei You need to go hotter.. well, you probably shouldn't

[@llll2071]

fibre and in extreme situations anaesthetic cream to tha 'hole

[@jonjaquez]

Cold baby wipes

[@ericsoto4064]

Because of Hot Ones I became a huge fan of hot sauces which I’ve never been a fan of but you changed me, thank you soo much. I’m still starting with just basic Red Hot sauce and eventually I’ll work my way up the chain. Making some hot wings tomorrow w00t!

[@jfernsten]

If/when you get to the 100k mark on the scoville scale, you'll find out what the endorphin high is all about. Just awesome when you're there!

[@Aliciaguilar86]

I can totally relate to this comment I'm now a hot sauce enthusiast haha

[@NarschoolVlog]

Dude.. Chalula is my girl!! I feel ya..

[@PurplePinkRed]

Me too! Never ate spicy food growing up, and now I don't know how I lived without it!

[@samh2130]

Damn I have to get to 100k? I'm only just getting used to around 7k-10k with the Trader Joe's habanero hot sauce

[@CJAYGRiZtv]

[@vodocrypto]

Jose Juarez something tells me they might have filmed one already since they liked it lol hopefully

[@camlock6319]

Excellent idea!

[@vediwop]

I can’t even handle hot foods but I still watch these like I know what they’re talking about

[@julioarcaiko]

Sean's my hero, he proves no matter how bad you are at food related stuff like handling utensils, with charisma and determination you can still make it!

[@kristinarobinson2986]

That intro made me about 100 times more hungry than I was before. Happy Halloween!

[@BlackYgritte]

love the videos you make with noah :)

[@jordanl5435]

Okay but can we talk about how Sean was holding his fork while cutting that steak? Like man are you okay?

[@RM_3D]

he eats only wings so he forgets how to use cutlery xD

[@thelastmoonchild.]

He has tiny baby hands that are too small to properly hold a fork. He doesn't know what he's doing. Haha.

[@sovereignviper]

He also ate a Taco the wrong way on video one time... Honestly, the way Sean eats really disturbs me.

[@skylerdrabing4323]

That shit cracked me up

[@TallicaMan1986]

Jordan L the man eats with his hands. If it werent for judgement from others. He would've picked that steak up with his hands and took a chunk out of it.

[@barcode1963]

I only used Tabasco & Franks all my life until I came across First We Feast on KZbin & now I been trying the ones they use on there video's & WOW I have been missing a lot Thanks Sean Evans for educating my taste buds !

[@Venator-ym8pm]

I fucking love Noah a ton. He always seems so happy and excited to talk about the hot sauces that he's passionate about.

[@njsr81]

I don't need hot sauce to get out of the bed crying... I already do. ;_;

[@maxsocalangler]

Come on "Tapatio" goes on everything lol!!

[@TimesFive]

[@femboypeek3410]

MaXiNCaLi no sirarcha goes with everything

[@Always-Decent]

[@BoogieDownProduction]

[@herotheplottmix6690]

MaXiNCaLi lmao Its disgusting! I have a bottle and it only goes on Corn Tortilla's lengua tacos.

[@especiallysi5643]

[@DCMFR]

When will The Last Dab be available for purchase? I want some

[@gerelltroche]

The Last Dab is available for purchase. It's just not in stock currently. I bought mine earlier this month and I'll get it sometime December. Here's the link! heatonist.com/hot-ones-the-last-dab/

[@thedude7726]

[@DCMFR]

Tulio Troche thank you. I'll keep checking for restock

[@thedude7726]

TruthHurts yes it is they,addressed this issue a while back. the peppers this sauce are made from are brand new , and there are only so many peppers available to make sauce from. They are shipping as soon as they have peppers to make the sauce.

[@Mentallystablemike]

Can you please get schoolboy Q on hot ones?

[@jaidsalgado]

[@biddibee3526]

Thank you for this very informative and entertaining video guys.

[@MrRelentlessPIM]

Video well done! Love the ideas presented here. Keep up the great work! 💥👊💥

[@Angelos_A.D1453]

5:56 look how badly Sean is holding his fork, looking like a 5-year-old kid trying to use fork + knife combination for the first time.

[@ingrid_inthesky]

That was the worst struggle. I hope he doesn't do that in public.

[@florianwh6407]

hahahaha

[@finngriffiths2625]

That’s why he eats wings

[@hafaball]

He also struggles at 2:33, interesting..

[@SexualizingTheHolocaust]

He seems really fucking high... Maybe that's why?

[@ProjektKlover]

The way you hold a fork, Sean, is just...

[@stevekerber]

Really interesting post. Thank you please do more along these lines. Thank you.

[@emersonflores9008]

I love these videos. Definitely making me more of a heat head with my food!

[@jackwilson9583]

[@w1ck3d67]

“You can never add less” hot sauce but u can add more food!!!

[@rigo_hern]

[@kimmykiddO]

[@federicolunas2654]

[@kameronrichardson2266]

Weik Zomberman *maffs

[@kissingtinyflowers]

I had a dream Sean took me on a date to an underground roller derby game at a woman's prison. He was a very attentive date and a pretty good kisser. 10/10 would recommend.

[@MrJesusdoesntsave]

I HAVE to try that Humble House.. sounds amazing

[@matthewsermons7247]

For Steak: Worcestershire sauce puddle with a puddle of Tabasco is Devine!

[@danemarshall9253]

Sean can you do an episode where you learn how to use cutlery like an adult

[@riko8606]

This guy is like Bob Ross of hot sauces

[@ramialhallak4097]

4

[@holdmybeer]

no. no, he is not.

[@lisamariefoye2853]

I love the Toadsweat Key Lime on vanilla ice cream or plain cheesecake. SO GOOD.

[@3p1cand3rs0n]

I'm really glad Nashville got some love here! We are ground zero of the Hot Chicken craze, so of course we bring the heat.

[@ethanwilkins5001]

How freaking stoned is Sean? Omg

[@thealphas1]

Judging from how he was holding the fork when cutting the steak I’m gonna have to say hella

[@eimii5025]

GET BIG SHAQ ON HOT ONES

[@max-rdj9741]

NO 'COS MAN'S NOT HOT

[@matthiashorne9606]

Love this show

[@Dreadnaught1985]

I had some mac n cheese with hot sauce a couple weeks ago, and I felt the creaminess turned down the heat, but kept the spice. So you have great flavours.

[@morasel7569]

Someone teach Shaun how to hold a fork please!!

[@kaspy7]

next episode big shaq

[@mrwolf5733]

I think you guys should do more pairings like this. Not only do you get a different variety of sauces other than from the show. But is also entices the audience to go out and try these unheard of sauces.

[@gentlemanchef]

This was very good indeed. Thank you.

[@jedo2889]

Do you think his beard was his normal hair color and then he had spicy sauce and it turned orange? No me neither

[@jaidsalgado]

Jens Johansson well this comment was a waste of time 😒

[@johngulbunny7456]

Jens Johansson it’s a white people thing, if one of your parents passes down the mutated gene that causes it, you’ll have a ginger beard. Actual gingers get the mutated gene from both of their parents

[@burnforburn]

jaidsalgado well this comment was a waste of time

[@Always-Decent]

Can you get a doc... On an episode of hot ones? and I mean the one and only *DOCTOR DISRESPECT*

[@CrazyOsi]

Always Decent u mean doctor disrespects his wife?

[@Grin5000]

Sean your knife and fork skills are top notch.

[@RadiantPickle]

2:06 "Nothing that's gonna have you crying first thing out of bed..." Good. Because I do enough of that already.

[@sergioplata1189]

Are we just going to ignore how Sean held the fork while cutting the steak at 5:50

[@shemeher3380]

He's used to wings 😊

[@greenman5255]

The only thing I'd ever put on a steak, is my MOUTH!

[@poggerskekw5903]

I have mine well done with tomato ketchup.

[@bmmmchichibmmm]

Wow!!! You're so coool!!!!! Are you like a steak connoisseur that's the final word in eating steak?

[@wealllame]

CMDR Hells x Pyro the best way to prepare a steak is to get it out of the freezer, microwave it for 5 minutes cook it 8minutes on each side and finish it with alot of ketchup and mayonaise

[@Always-Decent]

If you have a Carrabba's restaurant near you and you decide to get a good medium rare steak I *HIGHLY* recommend Sicilian butter!! ITS FUCKING AMAZING JESUS CHRIST

[@greenman5255]

CMDR, that is something my mom would do. Hey, if that's what you like, Bon Appetit!

[@windspirit_wavtheaudiofile7428]

just a thought: fans/critics/watchers may say Sean is cold, but really it's a lack of transitions. That said, keep being awesome Sean. I personally don't mind it (considering, I'm a self proclaimed heatonist), but I can see how others might think that he may be rather cold or whatever, but if you love the magic of hot sauces, you should not be "worried" about "transitions." KEEP UP THE GREAT INTERVIEWS AND BADASSERY, SEAN!

[@ianokuley2834]

I remember visiting Nashville and having Añejo sauce on the table at some burger joint. Easily one of my favorite hot sauces ever.

[@kramer1922]

I just put sriracha on everything.

[@Itwasalwaysme_Noone]

Sriracha is no big deal.

[@Prinzpoldi1985]

baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasic

[@DeathBringer769]

+Dan Moybler So that's what a hot sauce hipster looks like...

[@Hellraiser988]

That's child's play

[@genshikashmir]

The fuck is "Brookland?"

[@oResumEe]

genshikashmir 6

[@mackjames9264]

In Arkansas it's a shithole

[@SethDomenic]

I was wondering the same lmao

[@jimmypop14]

2 million subscribers!!!! congratulations guys

[@martberends8011]

Love your sauces!

[@TDawggggg]

Hot sauce on a steak. I'm triggered.

[@WhoLetTheDogOut]

I put Tabasco on a lot of things for lunch, but I wouldn't mind something with a little more kick :)

[@WhoLetTheDogOut]

Dario Hall ? I'm Sorry?

[@jaidsalgado]

WhoLetTheDogOut he died

[@connorcoates1666]

WhoLetTheDogOut “little”

[@1upNugget]

Thanks to Hot Ones I now have an assortment of various sauces lining my shelves. I was happy to see a video on food/sauce pairing. Could you recommend a pair for the QM Scotch Bonnet & Ginger sauce other than hot wings or the obvious asian cuisines?

[@buckybacker]

I see Isabel Street Heat's Ghost sauce in the fridge! One of our favorites from Minnesota. Give it a try.

[@ethanramsay2329]

tapatio on Mac n cheese. always

[@misesmedicine]

Heat level = "5 out of 10"...."2 out of 10" WTF is this? That is meaningless to us...How is a hot sauce "expert" not using Scoville units?

[@somegalicianguy8416]

Yeah, what is a 1? What is a 10? Where are the reference points? Besides this guy is probably really used to it so his 5 might be too hot for me.

[@FawXnSawX]

Well Scoville units are pretty imaginary and subjective too. Also numbers start to lose meaning the larger they get

[@jameskoskidescamps2497]

I love hot sauces and know a bunch of them; some of my favorites are Arizona Gunslinger; Chalulla, Siracha, Dragons Breath, Thai sweet chili sauce. If you really like hot stuff; come to Albuquerque in Feb (I think) as that is when we have the Firey Foods Festival.

[@matthewsermons7247]

For Breakfast, my favorite is Instant Grits with a slice of American Cheese, plus a tap or two of "Louisiana Fish Fry Hot Sauce". I like that sauce because it is thick but Crystal Palace Hot Sauce is great too.

[@NereusProductions]

nigga you put the hot sauce on the food my dood :)

[@89ludeawakening1]

You've probably never even seen sauce as what they eat on this show. Especially with straight szechuan and definitely Pepper X. You can't always put it directly on the food. If it's way too hot you just ruined the food. He said it perfectly, you can always add more, but you can never add less.

[@fellacreative_]

I see a video with Sean Evans involving food. I click. Be a great human, be like Tozfu

[@kncvideos748]

Tozfu Design you suck

[@brandonclark4111]

There is a monthly subscription box called fuego box for hot sauces. Heatonist should do their own.

[@AdamPaulStone]

The way Sean cuts that steak... 😂

[@samh4532]

yeet

[@brucehamilton2272]

0:18 -- "Williamsburg, Brookland" bruh what

[@khalidahmad1370]

Im always hungry watching ANY hot ones shows. And this just made me spend some to fill in my tummy

[@ChrisJones-xk4db]

Can you do an episode showing how your cook prepares the wings?

[@heyjude8258]

Can I pair that sauce with 🅱oneless pizza?

[@The10renren10]

Rayn Boi This made me laugh more then it should have.

[@transquelaag]

Cease

[@Bournehhh]

Nah dude only dead memes

[@pifi]

Sean needs to learn how to use cutlery properly.

[@madelinelaake7130]

I would've never thought to pair a sweet dessert with spice. Really want to try that now. Genius.

[@fettgnomen]

This was a great opportunity for me to learn about hot sauce pairings.

[@HarryVerolme]

Nice try but it goes with everything

[@grumpor]

Sean doesn't know how to fork

[@lorrie2878]

"Built in Kevlar vest", love it!

[@dubbywong2196]

Sean you are doing gods work

[@complicitwall3]

I just put Last Dab on everything. No thinking required

[@bigboxaleks9905]

And that's why steak should only be seasoned with salt pepper and some olive oil

[@JB-sz4wy]

Ground black peppercorn. The only condiment I happen to like however is mustard

[@Camzilla0]

I always find myself going back to Cholula Orignal. has the right balance of flavor and heat.

[@absoluteunit8628]

This was a good episode

[@KyaRider]

1: Don't. 2: ??? 3: Profit

[@kaylanoller8661]

Hot sauce on steak....No

[@neb-roqket8739]

Kayla Noller always

[@anthonygill5081]

If you eat hot sauce on steak not only are you insulting steak but you are insulting the man who made it. Real people know steak is supposed to be eaten alone, let the marinade and the smoke speak for itself

[@rockingodzilla]

Horseradish 😻 that’s a better alternative

[@manpotion]

Oh yea, wouldn't want to hurt the steak's feelings. Lol

[@anthonygill5081]

A Handsome Gentleman clearly not from somewhere where steak is actually good. Sad

[@strawberryloli]

I needed this in my life.

[@TheAsstdir]

This is good info. Thanks.

[@Anonymous29785]

Hot sauce on steak? disliked and unsubscribed

[@memelord4639]

rip steve irwin if you’re willing to unsubscribe for something as trivial as this then you being subscribed isn’t meaningful.

[@lolapple]

Wow, Sean needs to learn how to cut meat. smh

[@mightyryan1456]

When Tabasco had that scorpion pepper sauce out I used it on max n cheese all the time!!!

[@NickHyatt-ROCKS]

That was incredible

[@Kingkillwatts]

Send me some free sauce 🅱️

[@pifuskinz]

is sean handicapped? cuz when see him eat anything else but wings, he seems tarded. boy doesn't even know how to hold a knife and fork ( all jokes sean, but seriously wtf where you doing cutting that steak?) 5:54

[@WSO83]

It's an American thing in general, It's painful to watch Americans try and use a knife and fork, It's like watching an Ape try and paint the Mona Lisa.

[@thelastmoonchild.]

Agreed. He never seems to know what the fuck he's doing. He also has extremely tiny baby hands. So that might be why he can't seem to grasp the concept of using utensils properly.

[@jaidsalgado]

东北幽默的爷们 so what who gives a fuck lol not me. And I know how to use a fork and knife

[@D4v3B45t14n3n]

Only savages and little children don't know how to properly use a knife and fork. Sean is supposed to be a foodie but he doesn't even know basic cutlery skills. In Africa and Asia you can be forgiven because you often just use the hands or chopsticks. But in the western world not being able to use a knife and fork is incredibly noob. I have definitely lost a lot of respect for Sean, knowing he can't even use a knife and fork properly. I'd forgive him if he had arthritis but this is just shameful.

[@THEselfreflection]

This thread is too much for my eyeglobs

[@kevinmccorkle7476]

Made mequite smoked pineapple/habanero sauce last weekend. Combinations are endless and fun!

[@williamolt1183]

Great episode Sean, for us adveterius Ones, how about a mini series with Heatonist on “recipes” with some of the AWESOME sauces there and what they reccomend we try!!!

[@williamolt1183]

Yer boy FastEddie from TEJAS!!!!

[@docstrange2k]

Is it "Ask a White Boy" day or what?

[@JeffM375]

if you need to add hot sauce to your food, your food is terrible.

[@rq2757]

The Ancho & Morita sauce from Humble House is amazing on pizza.

[@cyiron]

Thank you for this video
