This one packs a REAL punch


Let me start by saying that this one gets two thumbs way up. I just returned from a quick bite out at Firehouse Subs in Charlotte, NC and must say I commend them not necessarily for their fire fighter themed restaurant but for their promotion of the idea of heat. They have a wide range of hot sauces to choose from to help spice up your meal and they've even gone so far as to rate them on a scale. Me being me, I went straight for one of the #10's. And I was not disappointed. I put a fair amount of Mad Dog 357 on my sub and must say, my nose was running. It was outstanding. A very pleasant surprise from a restaurant, as they usually have the traditional choices, ie Tabasco. This however was worth the taste and I'd recommend it again. The label comes with the traditional warnings but also boasts the fact that it is packed with 357,000 scovilles and it doesn't disappoint. If you get the chance, go for it. But be careful, the heat sneaks up and then over-powers you.
