Does anyone know any cheaper alternatives for Tabasco? I love those things but they are so expensive! I go through two small bottles a week.

Thank you! :)

  Any ethnic shop will have bottles of Louisiana sauce or variant for about $2.50.

  Or get a huge 370ml bottle of Valentina for about $6.

  I like Tapatio as a budget friendly option.

      It's not his. It was just a prop for the photo shoot.

  I guess you could mix cayenne powder with a bit of water.

  if you cant afford $5 a week on your favourite food, maybe you should stop eatting.

  1) Buy the big bottles

  2) Use less to make it last longer

  The Chipotle one is my fave.
  Go to is often a bottle of sriracha, goes a lot further. And cholula is pretty good too.

  Otherwise yeah learn to make your own. Vinegar, water, hot stuff, other stuff…

    I tried sriracha but I thought it was too thick.

    Yeah, I thought about making my own but always end up being lazy and just buying more Tabasco before I have the chance to make it lol

  Stock up when they go on sale each month for $3.70

  One of the big things I prefer about regular Tabasco is the fact that it doesn't have garlic in it.

  I've not yet been able to find a better vinegar based hot sauce that doesn't contain garlic so any suggestions are welcome!
