Another Hot Sauce... HOT

Wayne Boatwright said:

I tried a hot sauce in Tortilla Flat this afternoon that I had never seen
before, and came home with a bottle. It's called, "Ass Kickin' Wasabi
Horseradish Hotsauce." It had a good flavor and is more than hot enough for
my taste. The first three ingredients are habanero peppers, jalapeno
peppers, and wasabi horseradish. It's made locally in Goodyear, AZ, west of
Phoenix.

goodyear.. as in blimp..? Those flavors together sound awful! ok..not
tried it, but Arizona does have a near monopoly on HOT. I mean 120 in the
shade. lol

Ass-Kickings have been around for a while. I see them all over
the place here in TX. I was given some of their peanuts last
week. Pretty good, nothing fantastic.

LOL! Actually there is a tie to the Goodyear company dating back to 1917,
However, Akron, OH is now the home of the Goodyear blimp. (We used to live
in Cleveland.)

We seem to have a lot of locally produced hot sauces and salsa, too, but I
guess that's only natural since it *is* the southwest. I tasted this at
lunch, which is what prompted me to buy a bottle. It might seem like an
unlikely combination, but it's really quite good. And, yes, AZ is hot in
the summer, but it's a *dry* heat. :-)

Yeah, I've seen their other products, but not this one. It's pretty good.

I worked at Michelin at it's American headquarters in Greenville,
SC a couple years ago and the Goodyear blimp would pass overhead
every couple of weeks.

Nobody knew why as there were no major sporting venues around
Greenville SC.

ObFood: Midnight snack of smoked brisket and butter sandwich.
Cows are awesome.

There are currently 3 Goodyear blimps, the Spirit of Goodyear, based in
Akron, Ohio; the Spirit of America, based in Carson, California; and the
Stars & Stripes, in Pompano Beach, Florida.

While they do cover many sporting events, they fly over 100,000 per year as
Goodyear's "Aerial Ambassadors."

Yes, they are! :-) And the smoked brisket sounds terrific!

I don't know which one this was, but it was seen three times when
I was there, going two different directions (once northm twice
south). The range on those things must be pretty far (I'm sure
they can stop to refuel a few times without much maintenance).
They're surprisingly loud.

They travel at an average speed of 35 mph and carry enough fuel to cruise
for 24 hours. I never realized they were loud.

Sounds fantastic! It almost sounds too hot to get any flavor out of it but
you indicated the flavor was good. Got a link where I can order it? BTW,
what in Gawd's name was the address and number you wanted from me? I just
remembered it and it was some kind of soda.

The term "wasabi horseradish" seems to be a bit of a misnomer. Wasabi is
quite difficult to grow and comes from a temperate climate like Japan or
British Columbia. It would be expensive to produce. Hot peppers and
horseradish make my taste buds cringe. Perhaps regular horseradish root is
being used instead.

I dunno. I only reported what the label stated, both as a product name and
in the list of ingredients.. I would think that labeling has to be accurate,
but I could be wrong. If the thought of that combination makes you cringe,
then you probably shouldn't eat any. :-) I thought it was a very pleasant
(if very hot) taste.

The one essential ingredient for adding heat is Pue Cap because it is
flavor neutral.
