Homegating Recipes with El Yucateco

Updated: Jan 9, 2021

( #AD ) Do you have a favorite recipe that you enjoy whipping up for game season? I like to incorporate some staple main dishes while exploring new recipes every year. Today I want to share some delicious recipes with you all that are perfect for gameday eats using

El Yucateco Hot Sauces. <3


Some FUN FACTS & Product Information before I begin...


Did you know that El Yucateco is the #1 habanero sauce in the US and ranks in the top 10 of all hot sauces in the US? El Yucateco Hot Sauces are made from the whole fruit of the pepper, they are non-vinegar based and they do not use the capsaicin extract. El Yucateco was established and founded in the city of Merida, Yucatan, Mexico in 1968 by

Mr. Priamo J. Gamboa. We are essentially eating historic flavors with

El Yucateco's premium quality Hot Sauces. <3


El Yucateco currently has 5 habanero based sauces: Red, Green, Caribbean, Black Label Reserve and XXXtra Hot Kutbil-Ik. They also have a Jalapeño Hot Sauce and a Chipotle Hot Sauce in their product line.


Here are some details of El Yucateco's product line that are packed with flavor:

  • Jalapeño Hot Sauce 1,270° on the Scoville scale - The classic Jalapeno sauce, done the right way! Only the freshest peppers are used for this sauce. It’s the mildest of our sauces but packs a rich flavor and gentle heat.

  • Chipotle Hot Sauce 3,400° on the Scoville scale – It’s made from a rich blend of naturally smoked chipotle peppers and sweeteners. Its deep flavor enriches hearty dishes and adds a smoky note and sweet heat to grilled meats.

  • Caribbean Chile Habanero Hot Sauce 5,400° on the Scoville scale - This sauce is a perfect blend of yellow habanero peppers and fresh carrots, a source high in Vitamin A and Beta-Carotene. Its slightly sweet taste and mild heat deliver the traditional flavors of Caribbean Cuisine.

  • Red Chile Habanero Hot Sauce 5,790° on the Scoville scale - El Yucateco’s Red Habanero Hot Sauce is created with our classic recipe, a blend of habanero peppers, red tomatoes, select spices, and seasonings.

  • Green Chile Habanero Hot Sauce 9,000° on the Scoville scale - The Green Habanero Hot Sauce is made with another of our classic recipes. The freshest green habanero peppers, garlic, and fine spices blend into a fresh, flavorful sauce.

  • Black Label Reserve Chile Habanero Hot Sauce 9,285° on the Scoville scale - A fifth flavor has been added to the El Yucateco habanero sauce line up. El Yucateco Black Label Reserve is a dark, smoky habanero sauce. It gets its color from the habaneros being fire-roasted. No artificial smoke is used in the creation of this sauce.

  • Kutbil-Ik XXXtra Hot Chile Habanero Sauce 11,600° on the Scoville scale - We rescued this recipe from the culinary traditions of the ancient Mayan civilization, hence the name “Kutbil-Ik” - a Mayan word meaning “crushed chili”.


My Featured Meal (Tacos) & Some and Delicious,

FLAVOR filled El Yucateco Recipes


I was going to make Tostadas for my feature dish but decided on classic Tacos as I already had the flour tortillas ready to go! <3 Upon opening my two hot sauces I did not know what to expect as this is my first time trying El Yucateco products. The FLAVOR on these two hot sauces were surprisingly WONDERFUL!!!! They pack a nice, HOT punch... but the flavor really caught my attention... I've never tasted a better hot sauce with so much flavor! My husband also commented on the flavor... We've had NO other Hot Sauce that is this delicious! <3

For my very easy taco dinner last night, I added the following ingredients:

  • Flour Tortillas (enough for your family)

  • Ground Beef: Seasoned with: Corn, Chopped Green and Red Peppers, Chopped Cilantro, Minced Garlic ,Lawry's Seasoned Salt and Ginger

  • Refried Beans

  • Shredded Cheese of your choice

  • El Yucateco's Hot Sauce (I used both hot sauces for this)

  • Topped with a few sprigs of Cilantro
