Da Bomb Beyond Insanity Hot Sauce, Bottle

Okay, first things first: it's hot. Like, outrageously hot. The Burn. So, I was looking for something with a punch after getting quite used to the usual store-bought sauces like El Yucateco, Marie Sharp's, and the like (no offense to those great brands, still love them, just wanted more heat) - and boy does it deliver. A few drops (I mean it, don't slather it on unless you really know what you're doing) turn a boring TV dinner into an unforgettable experience rivaled only by a hefty slap in the face with a particularly large trout. The heat comes at you pretty fast and stays with you, perhaps longer than some may find enjoyable, but I personally love it. The bottle says 135,600 SHU, but there's no way that's accurate; the real heat seems much more intense, closer to a million. By the end of the meal, sweat and tears are highly likely, so stock up on some napkins. The Flavor. Now, there's a lot of negativity out there about how it doesn't taste good, tastes like chemicals, etc. Here's my take. If you try it by itself, the first thing you notice is it's bitter, like a top-of-the-line chili pepper, think Scorpion or Scotch Bonnet. And then, of course, the pain kicks in. Otherwise, the flavor reminds me of a smoky ghost pepper or something along those lines, no garlic, no vinegar, very simple and to the point. If used with food (like you're supposed to, you maniacs) it tastes quite pleasant, actually, and doesn't overpower the flavor of the dish. Another plus, in my book. The Way Out. Okay, not the most pleasant topic, but it burns on the way out as well, as anything with capsaicin would. Have some wet wipes ready if you're not into that kind of stuff. Also, if you've bitten a little more that you could chew, so to speak, try rinsing your mouth with unscented liquid soap: it helps dissolve the lipofilic lava juice off your delicate tissues. And don't do that again. The Value. The bottle is pretty small, 4 fl. oz. For the rest of the world, that's about 120 ml. There are sauces of this size pricier, but if you're looking for sheer power, this is it. Also, a little bit goes a long way with this one, so you'll get some mileage out of it. The bottle is made of glass, so don't throw it too hard, as tempting as it may be at times. There is no plastic nozzle on it, but the consistency is rather thick, like a really thick ketchup or barbecue sauce, so it's easy to dab it on without overdoing it. Just remember to shake it up really well before use. Overall, quite pleased with the first bottle, and will definitely buy more when it runs out. This one's a keeper.

Holy seventh circle in hell. This sauce... absolutely deserves its reputation on the show Hot Ones as the sauce that breaks anybody down, regardless of spice tolerance or affinity. I bought it purely just to experience it because it's hilarious how people on Hot Ones react to it — and I didn't underestimate it because I knew that if I did, I'd be in for a hellish experience, and mind you, I love spicy food, but this truly is -stupid- hot. Like comparable-to-Satan's-butthole-hot. If you like spicy food and are scoffing at this review and others thinking, "Oh pfft, it can't be THAT bad," oh it IS. This WILL humble you. I'm smirking just thinking about someone who goes into tasting this and underestimating it. If you're for some reason on here looking for a hot sauce that has flavor, this isn't it. This is literally like spraying pepper spray directly onto your tongue, and then squirming in pain exactly like the interview subjects in Hot Ones. The people on there are not exaggerating; I tasted a tiny DROP, literally a RAINDROP size drop less than the diameter of a DIME, on a tortilla chip, and even that small drop was tear-inducing, made my nose run, and pure P A I N sat on my tongue and the roof of my mouth for 15 minutes. It has an extremely faint Chipotle flavor, but not the delicious smokiness you typically get from Chipotle sauces. It's almost flavorless. It's like licking burned, unseasoned, charred meat, but just spicy and painful. I'm not exaggerating. Don't buy this for something tasty. ***If you're doing this just as a Hot Ones challenge, here's what you need to know: it does indeed have a half-life, as Sean Evans has said on the show. It will hurt pretty bad for like 15, 20 minutes tops and make it hard to speak or even think in that time period, after which it slowly starts to ramp down. If you're going to have something to drink, I didn't do milk, but I did try water, and the water honestly didn't help that much. Scientifically, it's not supposed to work to quell the sensation of pain because all it does is spread the capsaicin (pepper extract) farther into your mouth and esophagus. If water is all you have though, make it ICE COLD. Cold beverages are better than lukewarm, because it'll actually make it feel less hot in your mouth. I don't know if it would help others, but I had a Dunkin Donuts iced coffee next to me when I did the challenge, and it surprisingly worked way better to ease the pain than the water??? It might be because of the high amount of cream, sugar, and ice in it, but hey, if it worked for me, it might work for someone else! Just sip on it constantly in the recovery period, and it'll genuinely feel like the pain is going away. As for whether or not this will make your stomach hurt and run to the bathroom, that didn't happen to me and I was totally fine after about 30 minutes, but again, all I took is a tiny drop, so if you're going to coat a chicken wing with this stuff, yeah, you'll probably wanna make sure you're near a bathroom. I can't imagine it's good for your internal organs to have more than a drop of this at a time. It even says on the bottle: "Consume one drop at a time with extreme caution!" You better heed that warning wholeheartedly. They ain't jokin' around. Sean Evans, I tip my hat to you, sir, for being obligated to do this hundreds of times. I'm unsure how you still have tastebuds after eating whole wings covered in this blasphemous substance, but I applaud you for doing it and taking it like a champ. Hot Ones fan forever!

Way spicier than 134k scovilles because it uses the extract instead of the real peppers. Taste is alright and not as bad as people say.

Don't let the small bottle fool you, this is good and hot!. I have been on a quest to find the hottest sauce. something that will knock me on my azz. Although this is NOT that sauce, it did make me kind of regret my life decisions the other day! Bought this as a self Christmas gift because I watch #HotOnes on the YouTube every week. This is the one that they have the most reaction from. I believe my taste buds are broken because I really don't feel the heat. I have vowed to become famous so that I can make it on to the show and do the wing gauntlet with Sean Evans. So here I am at work and we all try Da Bomb at my job, dabbed it onto the chips equally, we all had it and i was like its ok.. not as bad as they make it out to be on the show but it works. I can feel that it is hot in my mouth so ok, on to the next one... Fast forward to Christmas day im at my families house and I gave everyone Zombie Apocalypse (Which was good but same feeling as Da Bomb at work for me). Out of the ones that did it with me, my aunt and my sister were both in the kitchen hovered over the sink drinking water and milk to cope with the "pain". All said and done about an hour had passed and one of our guest was about to leave and thanked me for the hot sauce and said, "next time bring a hotter sauce", I said well too bad your leaving because I have a hotter sauce. I busted out Da Bomb and her and I did the same chip w/ Dab amount and HOT DAMN that was way different than a few days prior. I'm talking about uncomfortable!!! We both instantly felt the bad decisions that we have made in life and couldn't hardly speak or deal with the burn. Bust out the Soy Sauce to neutralize the burn and after about 15 minutes or so all was well. Great sauce to have in the collection, weird how one day if didn't phase me then the next day it was in full effect like that. No need to buy this again even though i'm giving this a five star rating. its so hot that well when its done, its done!! on to the next one!! #HumanJukeBoxDJMO

Extremely hot just a drop in a large pot of chili please be careful of this keep away from the eyes very popular on hot ones show ..

Obviously if you're reading this, you are most likely considering purchasing Da Bomb so you can experience the "joy" of the Hot Ones experience. On the show, this sauce always brings people to their knees and elicits lots of complaints. If I recall correctly, Alton Brown threw the bottle into a waste bin (or he "binned it" for you UK folks). When Sean asks people "how are you with spicy food?" most of the interviewees are fairly modest (usually a sign of someone who can handle heat), but as many have pointed out, it belies just how viscous Da Bomb actually is. Part of this problem is that the Scoville scale isn't exact. Per Wikipedia "Decreasing concentrations of the extracted capsaicinoids are given to a panel of five trained tasters, until a majority (at least three) can no longer detect the heat in a dilution." So all of these numbers are relative. I've had three versions of the Last Dab, Blair's 357, and countless others over the years from the "upper end" of the sauces on Hot Ones. Da Bomb is easily, handily, much hotter. Part of this might be due to the fact that the capsaicin in Da Bomb doesn't come from peppers, directly. It is instead from pepper extract. E.g. instead of simply chopping up some chilis and throwing them into the sauce, the real heat comes from the extract. Flavor wise, Da Bomb is initially almost pleasant. Mild, but smokey. If that flavor was stronger, and it wasn't face meltingly hot, Da Bomb might be a daily driver for some meals. However, the flavor is rather mild and the heat obliterates it anyway. This is not a sauce that is both "hot" and "tasty." This is a sauce that will humble you. When I first tried Da Bomb, I was a wee bit cocky. I'd had plenty of sauces ostensibly hotter (higher Scoville ratings), eat "Thai hot" curry at Thai owned restaurants where the employees try to talk you out of it, and so on and so forth. This is really the product of ratcheting up my tolerance over decades, always chasing that dragon of perfect heat and perfect flavor. Less to say "I am so tough" or any other such nonsense, and more to say "I thought I knew what I was doing." I put a pea sized dot on some pizza crust and let it linger for a few minutes. Sure, I felt the heat, and it was certainly spicier than the Last Dab iterations in my cupboard (or what remain... the Last Dab is enjoyable on its own merits so I actually use it often). This led to an error in judgement. I proceeded to slather a slice of pizza in the stuff. Oh... my... I've never been maced (thought it might happen at a peaceful protest, thankfully not), but I can only imagine what this level of heat feels like in your eyes or nose. Again, it takes a beat for the heat to really come to you. I managed to finish the small slice of a hand tossed pizza (e.g. not a huge slice) before Da Bomb "dropped." The first dab was bad, but tolerable. This was... a mistake. I stuck my tongue in Greek Yogurt, I tried Almond Milk, nothing seemed to cause the heat to abate. Instead, I spent a good 20 minutes pacing back and forth, doing push ups, and jumping in place, much to my dinner companion's amusement. This is a "stuntin sauce," not a flavor sauce. Do not buy Da Bomb or any of its incarnations thinking that you're going to enjoy it in a traditional manner. There are hotter sauces out there, even hotter incarnations of Da Bomb, but Da Bomb is so widely known and "spice lords" can be so cavalier. Buy Da Bomb. Impress your friends. Feel the pain. It is certainly an experience.

Da Bomb. You have to try it because you watch celebrities suffer on Hot Ones. Season after season, it takes down pretty much everyone. It's what made Gordon Ramsay lose his mind and chug Pepto Bismol. It's what made Mark Rober give up on science. It barely had any effect on Alton Brown, but he was smart enough to bring half-and-half to the table. Da beginning Yes, It's hot. It's the hottest thing I've ever tasted. The initial flavor is actually not as bad as described. I fully coated a boneless chicken wing with it --- about ten drops ---, which I ate with a fork; you don't want to touch this stuff with your fingers unless you've always wanted to know what it's like to be pepper sprayed while your mouth is torched with hellfire. Da Burn After about a quarter second of mildly pleasant smoky pepper flavors, you start to realize what you're about to go through. The burn keeps intensifying and doesn't stop. Water just makes it temporarily subside, but it actually feels worse after you've swallowed. I waited for about five minutes before having water, and then lasted another three minutes before quickly grilling some cheese. (just cheese) and that helped get my mouth to stop being a living embodiment of Dante's worst nightmare. There was a little bit of coughing, but the worst was over in about ten minutes with that technique. Alton definitely has the right idea with half-and-half. Da Second Burn You then feel it slowly impact your stomach lining. At this point, you know that you've made a terrible error of judgment, but the experiment continues. Da Third Burn I'm sure more exciting stuff will happen as it passes through my small intestine and colon, and it's not something that should be discussed at meals. Or any time really. Da Conclusion It's not a particularly tasty hot sauce; it would be great if there was more interesting stuff to offset the burn. I suspect that a _small_ amount of this would add a nice zip to various dishes, but you can definitely get better flavored sauces. That being said, because you use so little of this, it will go a long way. A very long way. Look, if watching YouTubers cry isn't enough to stop you from getting this, then nothing will. Just keep something handy that contains lots of oil ready to help rid your mouth of the capsaicin extract that powers it. (they refer to it as "natural pepper extract" on the label) Whether that's whipped cream, fried cheese, butter coffee, or Alton Brown's choice of Half-and-half, be ready. Update: When not taken straight, it adds a great burn with a smoky flavor to foods with very tiny quantities. The chemical ash flavor really dissipates and I'm getting kind of addicted. There really is a lot of value in this sauce beyond just novelty. (or perhaps this is just a form of hot sauce Stockholm syndrome...)

I bought it to use on some food to teach my dog not to steal food. It’s the only one that works. I tried 100000 scoville em and my dog just licked it, relax. Now I still have to taste it myself with some good food: I tasted it and I almost had blood coming out of my ears

Surprisingly tasty! Works well as spice injection for e.g. soup, chilli. Spicy but will not melt your face off. Worth a try

It's pointless asking how hot this sauce is. Some people will think it's instant death - those who like actual hot sauce will appreciate it as a reasonably hot sauce you can enjoy. It's overhyped because of the Hot Ones show. The thing that blew me away was the flavour. I was almost expecting something that just burns without flavour, but this could not be further from the truth. Very strong paprika elements. Good habanero style undertones. Yes, you can eat it with a teaspoon, but probably not the best use of it. Add heat when you want to without adding nasty flavours to spoil your dish. This will be a regular for me from now on - I seem to be having it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

No idea what the guy with the top review on this sauce is talking about - the flavor of this sauce is heavenly. Habanero and chipotle are delicious, and certainly worth taking the heat. This is one of my favorite hot sauces ever since the early 2000s when I started working in kitchens and they had a bottle for customers who wanted extra spicy. This bottle will last you a LONG time, since you only add a very small amount. DELICIOUS Side note/pro tip: If you ever get hot sauce in your eyes, rinse your eyes with a dish soap and water solution, then rinse the soapy water out. The soap will break down the oil and stop the burning. I had to do this technique to my sister once who was looking at my bottle of da bomb and got some of it in her eyes.

Si está muy picosa, hechale poquito
