Spicy food blogger ranks 10 Sriracha alternatives from worst to best

ROCKFORD, Ill. - July 18, 2023 - PRLog -- Amidst a record-breaking Sriracha shortage, consumers are scrambling to find suitable Huy Fong alternatives. Spicy food blogger Annie Singer has tested and reviewed 10 sriracha hot sauces and published their rankings from worst to best, exposing hidden gems and lackluster imposters.

In a surprising twist, Singer's #1 pick was a Sriracha offering a tantalizing departure from the beloved Huy Fong flavor. "If you come in looking for something exactly like Huy Fong, you're almost unequivocally going to be disappointed," Singer warned. "Nothing on the market has the exact same flavor and balance." However, spicy food lovers who are willing to try new flavors will love Annie's #1 pick: Weak Knees Gochujang Sriracha.

"This sauce has a few things in common with Sriracha: red chilis, garlic, and a fermented element, but the gochujang flavor profile is an unexpected and delightful twist," they promise. Yellowbird's Jalapeño Condiment Sauce claims the #2 spot, tasting the most similar to Huy Fong Sriracha out of all of the alternatives.

This is the list in full, ranked from worst to best:

10. Food Club Sriracha (WORST)

9. Roland Sriracha Chili Sauce

8. Tabasco Sriracha

7. Melinda's Sriracha Wing Sauce

6. Ox Brand Sriracha

5. Badia Sriracha

4. Trader Joe's Sriracha

3. Yellowbird Blue Agave Sriracha

2. Yellowbird Jalapeño Condiment Sauce

1. Weak Knees Gochugang Sriracha (BEST)

"This list caters to every palate, featuring sauces that are brighter and sweeter, hotter and milder," Singer revealed. "While no alternative can perfectly replicate Huy Fong's signature balance, there are some strong contenders in the market for those who know their personal preference."
