Heartbreaking Dawn’s Cauterizer takes the company’s 1498 recipe and doubles down on fresh Trinidad Scorpion peppers, for an extra hot sauce balanced by apricot, blueberry, carrot and honey, with ginger and garlic. It starts with bright fruit and builds into a slow, relentless burn, with no extracts. Heartbreaking Dawn’s says Cook’s Illustrated and America’s Test Kitchen named it the best-tasting of the hottest hot sauces.

It’s made for seasoned chiliheads: try it on grilled meats and smoked barbecue, tacos, chili, stews and soups, wings, burgers and marinades.

About the maker

Heartbreaking Dawn's

Heartbreaking Dawn’s makes fruit-forward sauces with a history lesson on the label, starting with its flagship, 1498 Trinidad Scorpion.

1498 is named for the year Columbus reached Trinidad and pairs scorpion and scotch bonnet peppers with apricot, blueberry and carrot. The dated series continues with 1542 Southwestern Habanero and 1841 Ghost Pepper, and the range also includes Cauterizer, Reapercussion, Papa Boi Caribbean Scotch Bonnet, Classic Gold and The Green Verde. Most sit in medium, with a few superhots at the top.
