    I don't like vinegar, and that's the predominant taste I get from most hot sauces. So, I also buy powdered ghost pepper. It's super handy, since my family has zero spice tolerance I can just add powder to whatever on my plate/bowl.

    My friends and I all grow super hots and make our own dry spices as well. That doesn't stop me from buying hot sauces though because I enjoy the variety of flavors, but you can use the dry spice to add heat to many dishes that hot sauce would ruin/overpower.

    for sure, i still have a bottle or two around, but i rarely every use them anymore since the shaker is so much cheaper, faster, and more able to add heat. like you said, without changing the flavor too much. :)
