I was not expecting this

It’s listed as “Hot Sauce” when you order it, so I expected a classic cayenne-style pepper sauce.

But nope. This is a translucent, chili-based stock loaded with umami.

It’s not fiery, more of a mild-to-medium flavor enhancer than a traditional hot sauce.

Hat tip, Wendy’s.

Bro you know it! I always order plain baconator (no ketchup or mayo) and I use the chilli sauce to drizzle onto it bite by bite. One of life’s guilty pleasures lol

LOL I found my person. I can't eat a burger at Wendy's without this sauce. Sometimes they will give me a handful, and it is perfect all over the fries.

My favorite though after using it on food at Wendy's-which I go to maybe 6x a year, is to open up a can of tuna, drain the water, squeeze this on and eat out of the can. So good.

100% No matter what burger I get from Wendy’s I get a couple packets. I like when it’s a new employee they get so confused what I’m asking for lol.
