El Yucatero

In States you can grab this stuff at almost any local corner store for next nothing. Up here we are not so lucky.

Just saw that our local Loblaws sells a few variaties for $2.69. Not bad compared to what I have seen it at at speciality shops for.

So there you go, hit up a Loblaws for your El Yucateco for fix (in the Mexican food isle).

I just stumbled across a Jalapeno sauce they make. I had only seen the habanero ones and their chipotle sauce. It's quite mild, compared to the others, and goes great on just about anything. Their XXXtra-Hot-Habanero packs a good punch, but they have a Caribbean-Habanero, also, and that is my current fav. Get your hands on some, if you can. Good stuff...; ▶ Reply to This

I bought some Chipotle and some XXXTra-Hot Habanero (natural color). They are both really good! Made some wings with both for the Grey cup game and both were way better than the Frank's red hot ones I also made!

The XXXtra Hot does give a nice punch, but once cooked, it's not as hot as it is "raw". Next time I think I'm gonna cook the wings plain and put them in the sauce once they're cooked!; ▶ Reply to This

My only problem is all the preservatives. Oh, and if you marinate chicken in the green sauce, it looks like it'll glow in the dark when you cook it.; ▶ Reply to This

I prefer the red over the green. Not because of flavor but just appearance. Not much into green sauces.; ▶ Reply to This
