Lucky Dog Year of the Dog Thai Chile Pineapple Hot Sauce may well be Lucky Dog’s best sauce to date, and is featured on Season 9 of Hot Ones. Pronounced pineapple overtones blend seamlessly with the sublime flavour of red Thai chiles in a surprisingly savoury fruit-based hot sauce.
Never one to shy away from complex flavour profiles, Lucky Dog Hot Sauce’s Year of the Dog attempts to redefine what a pineapple hot sauce can be. Rather than muddle the flavours with competing tropical fruit notes, Year of the Dog singularly features the delicious pineapple, while avoiding the trap of being a “hot pineapple sauce” by using a spectacular balance of sweet and savoury notes that emerge or are muted depending on application.
Deeply layered flavours of toasted onion, roasted garlic, toasted sesame, Aleppo peppers, honey, lime, and hints of Chinese mustard and ginger with subtle rice vinegar blend perfectly to create an amazingly adaptable and uniquely balanced hot sauce that excels in both flavour and versatility.
Rarely is a pineapple hot sauce particularly hot, savoury or versatile. Year of the Dog combines all three characteristics to expand the boundaries of what you’ve come to expect from a pineapple hot sauce, with the bold and satisfying flavours that remain a hallmark of Lucky Dog Hot Sauce.

Not too bad, but I’m not a fan of pineapple. I’ll give this to a friend who likes it.

A good hot sauce for any meal.
