McDonald's Spicy Chicken McNuggets Return for a Limited Time
The Golden Arches is adding its fan-favorite Spicy Chicken McNuggets back to the menu. These are breaded in a crispy tempura coating and flavorfully spiced with a blend of aged cayenne and chili pepper. They are available in 6, 10, 20, and 40 piece orders and would likely pair nicely with the Savory Chili WcDonald's Sauce (more on that here) if you want to really kick them up. As...
Bottom Line: The Ranchero Chilaquiles Bowl from Taco Cabana is not too filling nor does it bring much heat, but it does offer a tasty breakfast item.
Chilaquiles have become all the rage these days. That may be in part because Food Network’s Guy Fieri loves them and has featured the dish several times on his show Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives, and it may also be because international cuisine is getting more attention across the country (and the...
Bottom Line: Marie Sharp’s Habanero Pepper Sauce and Melinda’s Original Habanero XXXtra Hot Sauce have similar ingredients and similar tastes, and both should satisfy lovers of habanero sauce
You may have noticed that the bottles of Melinda’s hot sauces are starting to show up everywhere these days, and that is because the company has worked its way to the Number 2 hot sauce brand in the country. But there is another hot sauce brand out...
Smashburger Adds Mango Habanero Crispy Chicken Sandwich
Smashburger is kicking up its menu with a spicy new chicken offering. Following is the description from the press release:
The Mango Habanero Crispy Chicken Sandwich is made with a crispy chicken breast coated in a delicious sweet and spicy tropical-inspired sauce. Perfectly blending the succulent sweet taste of mango with the fiery kick of habanero, the premium handheld is topped with...
This recipe for Toreados (cooked, blistered chili peppers) is quick and easy and you will find yourself hooked on these tasty little firecrackers.

Bottom Line: The Fiery Buffalo Royal Crispy Wrap from Burger King brings some heat, but it is pretty messy as well.
Burger King has added another spicy selection to its line of Royal Crispy Wraps with the Fiery Buffalo wrap. I previously reviewed the first spicy version that they put out (which is still on the menu), and you can read my thoughts on that here. Following is the official description of the new Buffalo version:
The new Fiery Buffalo...
The snack industry continues to spice up the munchies it sends to the shelves because apparently the burn brings the bucks these days. But how many of these selections are really all that spicy? Here is a look at three offerings I have sampled lately with my assessment of their heat levels: Cheetos Flamin’ Hot Tangy Chili Fusion: Cheetos has added yet another item to its Flamin’ Hot line, and I found that I rather enjoyed it. These are the...
Bottom Line: The Savory Chili WcDonald’s Sauce from McDonald’s delivers some sweet heat similar to Korean Gochujang and goes particularly well with the Spicy McChicken.
McDonald’s has a new dipping sauce on the menu, and you may want to give it a try before it returns to Limited-Time-Only-Ville (or turns into another Szechuan Sauce disaster). It is the Savory Chili WcDonald’s Sauce, and it definitely packs some heat. What’s that you...
Burger Adds Fiery Buffalo Wrap and Nuggets
The King is adding two more items to its Fiery lineup, both in the poultry family. The Fiery Buffalo Royal Crispy Wrap will come onboard as the fourth Royal Crispy Wrap and that will have a Buffalo-glazed chicken breast tender with lettuce, tomato, and creamy Buffalo sauce wrapped in a tortilla. In addition, BK is adding Fiery Buffalo Nuggets to the menu which are kicked up with that same Buffalo glaze....
Bottom Line: The Carolina Reaper Tacos from Dairy Queen deliver some darn good fast food tacos that also bring the heat.
Dairy Queen is one of the oldest fast food chains around, and they are known for their hamburgers and soft serve ice cream, both of which are quite good. But DQ has more to its menu like chicken strips, steak fingers, chicken-fried steak sandwiches, and more. And one of the things they have long had on the menu is tacos,...
