Zulu Zulu makes 4 or 5 great sauces - the Garlic is dynamite but this one is really good. I smoke ribs and use peri peri in lieu of mustard as a base. them are good ribs
Go to Double D meats in Montlake Terrace - they have a great selection of hot sauces - one row is nothing but X-rated ones.
Plus their steaks are the best and Wednesday is sausage day
Of these listed, Tapatio is my favorite. Between Sriracha and Tapatio it would be very close. I also currently have in my house two Tabascos (red and green), Cholula, two Franks (wing sauce and hot sauce), and a few other "specialty" hot sauces that I got as a gift pack. The Grossman household always has plenty of hot sauce around.
I don't know why people prefer Tapatio to Cholula. Oh wait - it's because you're all pour and Tapatio is like a 3rd of the price.
I like both (obviously, from my list above I have both in the house, usually), but Tapatio has a "cleaner heat" characteristic to me, whereas Cholula has more of a peppery/complex taste. There is obviously room for both depending on the food, but a lot of the time I like the simple heat of Tapatio.
