Old Bones Longhorn Five-Pepper Hot Sauce brings smoky depth and a layered pepper punch to your cooking. You get seven distinct ingredientsâfive different peppers including two types of habanero alongside Caribbean Reaper, cayenne, and Criolloâblended with smoked garlic, vinegar, and onion. This 200 mL bottle solves the common issue of flat flavor in hot sauces by offering intense aroma along with a serious kick. Use it for drizzling over finished dishes or stirring into sauces for extra complexity.
Backed by eight prestigious festival accolades, this sauce stands out for cooks who want more heat than the brandâs original Smoked Garlic recipe. It delivers a balanced profile that respects ingredient quality rather than relying purely on capsaicin burn.

- Competitive Recognition: Winners of both the International Hot Sauce Awards and multiple Austin Festivals, proving its consistency year after year.
- High Versatility: Works perfectly as a direct garnish for savory dishes or as a base for custom finishing sauces.
- Handcrafted American Quality: Small batches are handmade and bottled in the USA to maintain precise smoke levels.

- Stir Into Finishes: Mixing a little sauce directly into pasta or vegetable sides spreads the pepper-and-garlic flavor evenly throughout the dish.
- Control Table Spice: Serve the bottle strictly on the side when dining with others who may prefer less intense heat levels.

- Pizza makers wanting a ready-to-use, smoke-infused topping option
- Collectors tracking the award-winning trajectory of Old Bones releases

Can you add this to cold or room-temperature foods?
It excels there. The acidity cuts through cold cream and cheese beautifully, making it ideal for tacos, egg dishes, and pasta leftovers.
How does Longhorn differ from Jawbreaker?
Jawbreaker isolates the Carolina Reaper for singular, aggressive heat. Longhorn layers that Reaper with two habanero types, cayenne, and Criollo peppers for a fuller taste.
Is this actually a barbeque sauce?
This listing is for the hot sauce only. If you want the sweet, thicker barbecue variation using these same peppers, look for the separate Long-BQ instead.
Does the sauce contain hidden gluten or allergens?
The ingredients stick to peppers, vinegar, sugar, water, garlic, onions, and salt. It contains no gluten-containing additives and remains fully vegan.
What makes the smoke flavor stand out?
The pepper base includes smoked varieties alongside garlic and onion before fermentation, preserving that charred aromatic character in the final liquid.
Exactly how large is the container?
Each release comes in a practical 200 mL glass bottle meant for steady kitchen use.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We donât believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldnât rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
