I tend to prefer a flavorful green sauce over most types of red sauces, but am very much a chili head. I'm a native El Pasoan who grew up on seasonal Hatch chili and bi-annual chili cook offs. I've run a few hot sauce karmas here in years past and have nearly 200 different hot sauces in my collection that range from "is there a chili pepper in here?" to "get me to the ER." I want to tell you about this one.
I am not affiliated in any way and didn't get mine direct from the link, my wife found it in the local Safeway.
This stuff is good. Full stop.
If you like a green hot sauce with a lot of flavor that won't set your scalp to sweating, this is worth trying. Enjoy.

Have you had their red or super hot varieties? They're all available on Amazon, and I'm thinking about ordering the 4-pack variety combo. $16.49 via Prime. According to Amazon, it's owned by the lead singer of The Offspring!
No, I've only tried this type. I only just now was looking at their other offerings because I used some of the green sauce to make dinner pretty awesome.
My wife made a mojo and key lime pork shoulder with stuff we brought back from family in Florida the other day. I shredded up some of that and she put it in some home-made mac-n-cheese tonight. It was pretty good, but a strong dose of this stuff knocked it out of the park, and that was among like, five other choices of green sauce we brought back. Absolutely have to recommend.
And yeah, Dexter Holland owns the brand. He has a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology and wrote his thesis on HIV last year. Busy dude. I like his green hot sauce.

Fascinating work. And the hot sauce too.

Amazon has it in 4 packs. You can get 4 green bottles, or 2 green and 2 red, or other multi-packs. AND, of course I bought some. I love a good green sauce, having become quite fond of them in the past couple of years.
Thanks got to try that. You know just in the last 2 years have I gone to mostly green hot sauces. For some reason I always went for the red stuff in the old days.
Trader Joe’s also has one that is good. I think it’s called dragon sauce.

Thanks for the recommendations. I’ll give it a try. I love Cholula Green Pepper hot sauce. I know that it sounds weird, but Silk brand Unsweetened Soy Milk, laced with Cholula Green Pepper is utterly addictive!
Serious about crackers

Just wanted to say thanks to the OP. I bought some of this Gringo Bandito green sauce and it's great. Great flavor with a little heat but doesn't hurt you. Good stuff!
