El Guero 2 Salsa is authentic Mexican hot sauce from our family's catering kitchen in San Diego. For years our salsa disappeared first at every El Guero 2 event, and guests kept asking for bottles to take home, so we started bottling it in small batches with the same family recipe.
It's built on chiles de árbol and garlic. Chile de árbol brings a clean, bright heat and a toasty chile flavor, and the garlic rounds it out, so every squeeze adds flavor, not just fire. This is a spicy salsa, balanced enough to put on everything: huevos rancheros and chilaquiles, street tacos and carne asada, ceviche and shrimp, burritos, fries, and micheladas.
Every bottle is 5 fl oz (148 ml) in a BPA-free squeeze bottle that's shelf-stable until opened. Refrigerate after opening. Pick a Single Bottle ($5.99) to try it, or a 3-Pack, 6-Pack, or 24-Pack to stock the kitchen. Orders ship from San Diego in 1–2 business days, with free U.S. shipping on orders of $70 or more.
