For my wife and I, El Pato Jalapeño Hot Sauce (or simply "Pato Sauce" as we call it around the house) sits alongside Huy Fong Sriracha as our favorite day-to-day hot sauce. We can usually get it at Stater Bros. (a Southern California grocery chain) for $1 flat, so we can always afford to have it on hand.
It has a zesty, bright, fresh flavor that really honors the jalapeños, combined with a mild, pleasant heat. I think of it as a "taco sauce-style" sauce, so of course we slather it liberally on those whenever we make them. But it's also really great on eggs. And, as always, I'm a savage, so it'll go in soups or on pasta or mac and cheese, etc.
My wife is not as much of a hot, spicy junkie as I am, but she has no hesitation reaching for this sauce.
Recommended.
