Although the first wing in season 6 is weak, it can lull you into a false sense of security, as a rocket is about to take-off. Depsite this fact, I think season 6 offers the toughest lineup in the series' history (in term of Scovilles). The Last Dab Reduxx was introduced in season 6, which dropped the Scovilles in the last wing to 'only' 2 million. Interestingly, the jump in hot sauce on the tenth wing in season 1 (Mad Dog 357) to The Last Dab on season 4-6, is roughly the same as the jump for wing five in season 1 and season 6. This 3.3 million Scoville sauce is far and above the hottest sauce they've featured on the show. The introduction of the Hot Ones' original hot sauce, The Last Dab, in season 4 was a game changer in terms of Scovilles on the Show. Seasons 5 and 6 really cranked up the heat here too though. You can see this in the log transformed figure. The spike we see at position five is, in part, pronounced because season 1's hot sauce had fewer Scovilles than the fourth wing of that lineup. It also had the widest range in Scovilles in all the seasons.Īlthough this figure allows us to see the general pattern, the overlapping nature of the data makes it difficult to readily understand how the Scovilles have changed over the seasons.īy plotting the data points by their relation to season 1, we can more clearly see how the hot sauces evolved in their Scovilles across the seasons. It had the slowest uptake in Scovilles, but rose quickly thereafter. Season 6 presents the hottest wings from 2-6 span of wings.
You can see from the figure that season 6 has higher Scovilles in the middle of the wing array than any previous season. When intrepreting the figure, keep in mind that because of the scaling the same vertical distance, spatially, at the lower y-levels includes less numbers than at the upper regions. This was done in response to the skewed and wide ranging nature of the data. When dealing with really hot sauces, more thickness can help meter out the exact amount desired.Scovilles of Hot Ones' wing lineups across all six seasons.Ī log 10 transformation was used for the above figure. We like sauces with a bit more viscosity and smoothness, while Brain Burner feels slightly watery. There are a healthy amount of seeds and pepper flecks suspended in the sauce, a nice reminder of its all-natural ingredients. You should be careful not to over-pour Brain Burner onto your food. This means there is likely a high vinegar/lime juice content. This hot sauce is on the thinner side, pouring readily from the bottle. This sauce seems very hot, certainly among our hottest reviewed sauces. The Scoville scale is meant to be a scientific way to rank spiciness, though we have found that some sauces with lower Scoville ratings can actually seem hotter. The same happened with Da Bomb hot sauce, with a Scoville around 135K, but a perceived spiciness through the roof. This just goes to show that the Scoville scale can be subjective. After tasting both sauces, we agree that Brain Burner is less spicy, but not by that much. Eye Of The Scorpion has been rated at over 600,000 SHUs.
Brain Burner hot sauce tastes extremely hot, though the Scoville rating isn’t all that high.Īccording to a Hot Ones video, Brain Burner hot sauce comes in at 112,000 SHUs on the Scoville Scale. However, sometimes the Scoville Scale rating of a sauce doesn’t tell the whole story. It is the least spicy among the 3 Hot Ones game show sauces, but it isn’t a slouch. The super-spicy heat level of Brain Burner is what this sauce was made for. We prefer the more complex and intriguing flavored hot sauces, but Brain Burner sure packs a punch in heat. Brain Burner makes for a great way to spice up a dish without affecting its flavor too much. While this hot sauce certainly shows the impressive power of the hottest peppers, the flavors are not very appealing on their own. Tip: Pour slowly! Brain Burner’s consistency is fairly thin and runny.
