Lucky Dog El Perro Afortunado (“The Fortunate Dog”, or “Taco Dog”) is a medium salsa picante and a throwback to the zesty picante sauces Scott Zalkind grew up with: fire-roasted tomato with a five-pepper blend of pasilla, cayenne, New Mexico red, ghost and black pepper, smoked Spanish paprika, garlic, onion, cumin, and orange and lime juice.
It took first place for all natural mild and medium hot sauces at the 2024 Scovie Awards. Try it on eggs, Mexican food and pizza, sandwiches and seafood, in guacamole, soups and stews, or in a Bloody Mary. Lucky Dog Hot Sauce is Scott Zalkind’s company in Hayward, California, and its motto is “Food’s Best Friend”: sauces built to enhance food, not overpower it.
