Introducing Season 20’s signature Hot Ones hot sauces! This Trio features fan favourites like Hot Ones’ new sweet and mild hot sauce, The Classic Chilli Maple. No fan-favourite pack would be complete without the OG sauce of summer, Los Calientes Verde. With its Baja-inspired combination of tomatillo, green serrano, apricot and cumin, it’s been stealing hearts since Season 6! Rounding out this set is The Last Dab: Apollo. You don’t have to if you don’t want to, but it’s tradition around here to add an extra dab of this hot sauce to the last wing in any hot wing challenge. Made with three different preparations of Smokin’ Ed’s newest chilli creation, The Apollo Pepper, it’s Hot Ones’ hottest Last Dab yet!
The Classic Chili Maple | Hot Ones Hot Sauce

Try this mild hot sauce on autumnal favorites like crispy brussels sprouts, roast chicken or sweet potatoes, but don’t underestimate it as a powerhouse for grilling, breakfast foods (hello chicken and waffles) and so much more!

The Last Dab Apollo | Hot Ones Hot Sauce
The Apollo Pepper has been carefully bred and nurtured by Guinness World Record holding chilli breeder Smokin’ Ed Currie from prized strains of his famed Carolina Reaper and Pepper X. The Apollo brings this heritage to new heights of capsaicin, packing a more concentrated punch than any of its forebears. The flavour of The Apollo comes from the sweetness of Carolina Reaper, tinged with the earthiness of Pepper X - it’s a culinary powerhouse. The heat profile of The Apollo Pepper is akin to having your head slowly lit aflame. You feel the fire consume your entire skull, your tongue smoulders, burning tears pour from your eyes. And then, five minutes later, the ride is over, your heart rate returns to normal, the panic subsides. This pepper is like no other.
