El Havanero Cuban Hot Sauce made with Habanero peppers with fresh red bell peppers, tomatoes, onions, plus our secret blend of Cuban spices in our Bárbaro Mojo marinade! Enough heat for the real hot sauce lover!
Flavor profile: garlic-forward and citrus-forward. The sour-orange mojo criollo and roasted garlic frame the habanero, so it reads bright and savory, not just hot.

Recipes to Try with El Havanero
-
Frita a Caballo
A generous drizzle over the fried egg mixes with the runny yolk and the burger juices into its own sauce.
-
Mojo Shrimp Skewers
El Havanero shares the citrus and garlic base of a Cuban mojo, so it works as the whole shrimp marinade.
-
Masitas de Puerco
Finish the fried pork with lime and a few dashes of El Havanero, built on the same mojo criollo base as the marinade.
-
Fricasé de Pollo
Stir 2 to 3 teaspoons into the pot near the end, since its tomato base matches the fricasé sauce.
-
Enchilado de Camarones
Keep the pot mild for the family and add dashes of El Havanero to your own plate.
