Bottom Line: The Diablo Dare Challenge from Arby’s delivers on the heat by turning their always-reliable Roast Beef and Fries into molten goodness.
Arby’s is at it again. That chain might be known for its roast beef sandwiches, but earlier this year it offered a Diablo Dare Challenge featuring both a brisket and chicken sandwich loaded with a spicy sauce and roasted diced jalapenos. That came and went pretty quickly (I never found the...
Bottom Line: The Gold Emblem Extreme Hot Honey BBQ Cashews are the perfect blend of sweet and smokey with a nice kick of heat as a bonus.
CVS Pharmacy may not be the place you think of as a go-to location for spicy snacks, but as I have written about on this site before, it is worth taking a look around the store next time you pick up your prescription. They might have varieties from the major brands that you don’t usually find on the shelves...
One of the most popular fast food joints offering roast beef is spicing things up again. Earlier this year that chain released two Diablo Dare sandwiches for a limited time and now they are giving them another run for the drive thru. Previously, the sandwich options included crispy chicken or brisket, but this time around they are swapping out roast beef for the latter. The meat in the sandwiches is topped with natural cheddar cheese, fiery hot...
Bottom Line: While the Jack in the Box taco may be pure junk food, it is a drive thru classic and the Monster Taco is the same only bigger.
There are certain classics available from the drive thru that have been around for years and that people will continue to seek out for many more to come. The McDonald’s Big Mac and Fries, the Burger King Whopper, the Wendy’s Double with Cheese and Frosty have all etched themselves into food history as...
Bottom Line: The Ghost Pepper Whopper from Burger King is a darn good fast food burger that really brings the heat.
I have been reviewing a lot of fast food lately, more than I would prefer and more than my beltline needs. But those establishments have been putting out quite a few spicy options lately, and they tend to disappear pretty quickly (a dubious marketing ploy on the part of some). A lot of these are chicken-related because poultry...
Bottom Line: Buffalo Wild Wings delivers an always good chicken sandwich with plenty of sauces to choose from and at a competitive price.
What’s to eat? Chicken, chicken, and more chicken! The good news on that is restaurants know how to spice it up quite well so that we are plenty pleased with their poultry offerings. And one place that rarely disappoints when it comes to spicy chicken is Buffalo Wild Wings. That chain has been trying to get...
Taco Bell is back to its here-today-gone-tomorrow tricks with Nacho Fries returning to the menu for now. And this time they are adding a spicy twist by pairing the Loaded Nacho Fries with TRUFF hot sauce. Here is what those come with:
Golden, crispy Nacho Fries covered in TRUFF sauce, marinated, grilled steak, nacho cheese sauce, cheddar cheese, tomatoes, and reduced-fat sour cream.
They are also offering the Loaded TRUFF Fries Burrito which is...
Bottom Line: Hoff’s Smoken Ghost Ketchup comes from a small batch and stands out among the many ketchups on the store shelves.
When it comes to spicy ketchups, there are plenty of them out there on the shelves, but I rarely pick one up. I have so many hot sauces and spicy seasonings in the kitchen that I can whip up a batch of spicy ketchup in no time, so why bother with buying a bottle? (In fact, watch for an upcoming recipe for my Spicy...
We have a winner, and it's a classic! Last week, Taco Bell asked people to vote for the return of one of two discontinued items: the Double-Decker Taco or the Enchirito. The votes have been tallied and the latter (which was the one I voted for) will be returning to the menu. The Enchirito is a classic that first appeared on the Bell's menu in 1970. It is a beef and bean burrito covered in a red enchilada sauce and topped with shredded cheese...
Bottom Line: The H-E-B Habanero Salsa Tortilla Chips deliver a full-flavored snack with a punch of heat, if you get a good bag.
H-E-B is a grocery store chain commonly seen throughout Texas and they practically own the market here in San Antonio. They have their exclusive brand of products which include quite a number of flavored chips that tend to come out with seasonal, limited-edition varieties throughout the year. Just recently they released...
