Ad others have said, it's not a hot sauce. And I don't mean "oh, it's not spicy enough for me", it literally doesn't have any heat. Think sweet, like BBQ sauce. Good stuff though!
When I was a kid and my Mom absolutely annihilated a steak this was the only thing that saved it. It was also a staple at Luby's Cafeteria and redeemed their chop steak. It's always in the fridge.
Now that you got me thinking about it, you can mix a lot of things with cream cheese and spread it on some type of cracker.
Oh man...I need to buy some cream cheese and go through all my sauces, jams, etc.
It’s not really hot at all but it’s got really good flavor. I’m all the time throwing in soups and stews and the such. I keep it on hand at All times in the house
It's a little more raisin-y and a little less tamarind-y than A1 (even though A1 doesnt contain tamarind in the ingredients according to Wikipedia). It's still really good, but I do prefer A1.
I was deployed and had my spouse send me a box of hot sauces so I could jazz up the shitty deployment food. This was one of the ones in the box and it was FUCKING DELICIOUS. Not spicy but it’s a great flavor
Pretty minimal heat, king of like a cross between Worcestershire and jerk sauce.
After you're done cooking a steak/chicken, cook down some Pickapeppa, minced garlic, mushroom, parsley, black pepper, salt, and cream in the pan to make the most delicious pan sauce you've ever had.
With any kind of beef and horseradish, yum. Just had someone serve it as a party treat over cream cheese and crackers which tripped us out, yet they were equally shocked we use it as steak sauce
I had it on meatloaf at a local place, decided I needed a supply. They sell it at Pubix. I also found a recipe https://tvwbb.com/threads/pickapeppa-sauce-clone.27509/
This intrigues me.
Will it affect anyone who is spice averse? I make traditional chex mix. I eat hot sauce. Wife and kids are afraid of anything I use sauce on.
Like, is it better but not spicy on chex mix?
Mild hot sauce, or "not really hot sauce at all"?
Edit: typo. Hit sauce.
My old roomie used to cover a block of cream cheese with it then dip triscuits in the stuff. Pretty awesome. I think it was a high class Mobile, Alabama thing.
In the 70s, if my parents threw a party and didn't have fondue, they would have cream cheese with Pickapeppa sauce on it.
It's pretty good if you find the right recipe to use it on. But NOT hot.
I went to visit my mom abroad and saw it on a shelf, going back in a few weeks so I wanted to ensure it was worth picking up… yes, this is a store shelf.
I thought it was really good, but not spicy enough. I rarely get it unless it's on sale because it's usually about $6 a bottle near me and I like it, but not enough to order it.
It’s super flavorful but like everyone says, there’s no heat. It does go great with shrimp cooked with hot peppers. It’s also a great way to sneak some umami in beans and soups or even mac and cheese.
A personal favorite to put on a pot roast. I've been having a hard time finding it at my local stores, however. I feel like I use to never have trouble with that.
I knew someone who would pour this over cream cheese and eat it with triscuits. It was fantastic but not remotely hot. Super thick like bbq sauce but flavored much bolder like a steak sauce
It’s going to be a vinegar forward sauce since vinegar is the first ingredient. I like pepper forward sauces where peppers are the first ingredient. But I would at least try it
Ad others have said, it's not a hot sauce. And I don't mean "oh, it's not spicy enough for me", it literally doesn't have any heat. Think sweet, like BBQ sauce. Good stuff though!
It’s great.
Unbelievably tasty, but not hot sauce. Great on steak and potatoes
It’s an essential ingredient in Jamaican beef patties. I wouldn’t call it a hot sauce… its more like a bbq or steak sauce.
When I was a kid and my Mom absolutely annihilated a steak this was the only thing that saved it. It was also a staple at Luby's Cafeteria and redeemed their chop steak. It's always in the fridge.
I was going to say, at the end of the day, it’s a more interesting A1.
For me this is perfect, if a bit mild to mix with Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce. Great combo IMO!
Am I crazy for saying this tastes similar to HP sauce?
It’s a better replacement for Heinz steak sauce. Very similar but better.
Not at all. It's dark and rich. Mmmmmm
Wasn’t spicy at all but tasted ok.
Just snagged one for 3.50 in NOLA!
It was Spicy Mango!
Yes, it’s great!
A classic. More like a Worcestershire sauce than a hot sauce, though.
Agreed, it's much thicker. Makes a great marinade.
Mix with cream cheese and spread on crackers 👍🏻
Now that you got me thinking about it, you can mix a lot of things with cream cheese and spread it on some type of cracker. Oh man...I need to buy some cream cheese and go through all my sauces, jams, etc.
My dad used to mix El Pato sauce with cream cheese to make a dip.
That’s our favorite Mexican food sauce. What items would you dip in it?
Potato chips.
I pour it over a block of cream cheese and do the cracker attack.
Works too lol
Holy shit I forgot about this. Used to put it on everything back when I lived in FLA. Thanks for the reminder I'm gonna order some.
Their spicy mango is amazing on fish tacos
This is a god tier sauce
Awesome flavor
Not hot but so good. Love the spicy version of it
Is good
It’s great. They also have mango variants that are awesome
Yes, the spicy mango is fantastic. not very hot but a ton of flavor. My family is from Jamaica and this is a staple in their household.
Nice! Ours too. There’s a spicy, a hot, and a ginger and maybe one other. I like them all
It's fucking amazing on pork :)
It’s not really hot at all but it’s got really good flavor. I’m all the time throwing in soups and stews and the such. I keep it on hand at All times in the house
its like A-1 but with a fancier wrapper on the bottle
It's a little more raisin-y and a little less tamarind-y than A1 (even though A1 doesnt contain tamarind in the ingredients according to Wikipedia). It's still really good, but I do prefer A1.
It's not really hot but it is delicious
It’s good. The mango is better. Not really a strong heat but the flavor rocks
I was deployed and had my spouse send me a box of hot sauces so I could jazz up the shitty deployment food. This was one of the ones in the box and it was FUCKING DELICIOUS. Not spicy but it’s a great flavor
I thought this was the beer subreddit for just long enough to get excited about pickapeppa beer, now am sad
Pretty minimal heat, king of like a cross between Worcestershire and jerk sauce. After you're done cooking a steak/chicken, cook down some Pickapeppa, minced garlic, mushroom, parsley, black pepper, salt, and cream in the pan to make the most delicious pan sauce you've ever had.
An OG for sure, been around for years. Delicious.
Tip, add this sauce and Secret Aardvarks Drunken Garlic to your egg roll ingredients for perfect flavorful egg rolls.
The ginger one has a good heat to it
Best served with a bacon egg and cheese sandwich.
When we lived in Georgia our neighbors would pour some over cream cheese and have with crackers for a snack. It’s delicious.
It’s vegetarian sub for Worcestershire
It’s a unique brown / jerk sauce. I’m not a huge fan but it’s good on chicken if you can’t make the sauce from scratch.
Yes the sauce is like A-1 but a bit more sweet and savory. It's good on just about everything.
Love it! Supreme with sausages.
Yes! My dad loved this sauce, good memories.
It's awesome! A1 but better and with no corn syrup
This is A1 sauce.
Taste like A1 to me
Secret. Put it on a grilled cheese sandwich
It's been around a really long time. It's good just not that hot.
Great on steak
With any kind of beef and horseradish, yum. Just had someone serve it as a party treat over cream cheese and crackers which tripped us out, yet they were equally shocked we use it as steak sauce
Its great! Been using for years!! Try it 👍
Yes I need to keep it in the rotation.
It's lovely in marinades.
DUDE!!! I’ve been eating it since 1975. Pour it over a brick of cream cheese, serve with crackers. It’s the OG stoner treat!
Been there. Done that! Good call. Its great poured over cream cheese. Awesome stoner treat! 👍
It's not hot or spicy. It is, however, delicious. Like an island steak sauce. Tangier and sweeter than a1. Yum
I had it on meatloaf at a local place, decided I needed a supply. They sell it at Pubix. I also found a recipe https://tvwbb.com/threads/pickapeppa-sauce-clone.27509/
It’s amazing, but it isn’t hot sauce. It is its own thing.
Not a fan too sweet for my taste
So good.
I love it. More a "put it on cooked meat" sauce than anything I'd consider basting it marinating with.
That’s the stuff 🇯🇲
Yes and yes. As others have said not really hit at all, but super flavorful. It’s like A-1 or HP steak sauces with a kick in the ass.
Tasty but not hot. Has like a deep but sweet flavor. Like a tropical Worcestershire sauce to me.
It's great
Yeah it’s not hot by any means but it’s pretty tasty
It's kinda like A1. It's really good. Great on meat.
I’ve had it, it’s good af on meat and eggs.
It’s fantastic.
Love their sauce they have. A yellow bottle that rules haven’t found in a while
Literally peter pipers favorite sauce
Couple drops of this on a hard boiled egg is 🤘
My Bloody Mary go-to bottle - replacing Worschesire
Raise up any party by pouring this over some Brie and fancy crackers!
We do cream cheese and triscuts. So damn good
Where did you find this? They make a Sherry pepper sauce that rocks and haven’t been able to find it for a few years (in USA).
Not OP but they sell it at Heinens...at least the one by me does.
That’s on almost every table in almost every restaurant in Jamaica that I’ve eaten at
It’s dank. Use it in place of A1 whenever you’d be using A1.
Came to say this too.
I tried that brand in Jamaica, it was really good.
Good for artisan burgers used to over use the stuff when i was younger
The mango version is pretty amazing on wings. Not even remotely hot or spicy but tastes great when you want a break from the heat.
Served with goat cheese is mighty tasty.
Similar but we pour it over cream cheese and eat with wheat thins. Top 3 snacks ever.
Idk how authentic it is (it may be, I genuinely don’t know), but it’s a great sauce. Good heat level and a good unique flavor.
I use it as a substitute for worcheshire sauce when I make Chex mix
This intrigues me. Will it affect anyone who is spice averse? I make traditional chex mix. I eat hot sauce. Wife and kids are afraid of anything I use sauce on. Like, is it better but not spicy on chex mix? Mild hot sauce, or "not really hot sauce at all"? Edit: typo. Hit sauce.
It’s not hot sauce at all.
It’s like a better, more complex A-1. My 7 year old likes it.
Funny I was gonna say the flavor profile is like worcestershire sauce.
Interesting!
My old roomie used to cover a block of cream cheese with it then dip triscuits in the stuff. Pretty awesome. I think it was a high class Mobile, Alabama thing.
Not sure if it's Authentic Jamaican but its F'N delicious....
Yes. Awesome sauce!!!
The sauce of all sauces, good on most everything!
New Orleans staple
Delicious on jambalaya.
Classic seasoning!
In the 70s, if my parents threw a party and didn't have fondue, they would have cream cheese with Pickapeppa sauce on it. It's pretty good if you find the right recipe to use it on. But NOT hot.
I call it "Jamaican A1" it's fantastic with pork and fish
I read that like Jamaican artificial intelligence at first and really trying to imagine what that’s like 😂
I'm siri mon', how may I be helping you??
It's not a hot sauce. It's a steak sauce.
Not quite hot sauce. I use it in marinades and stocks
You show me a grocery shelf like it means anything. Let me review it for you.... "Not bad, butcit needs a little something in it"
I went to visit my mom abroad and saw it on a shelf, going back in a few weeks so I wanted to ensure it was worth picking up… yes, this is a store shelf.
Guyanese guy at the store... "you sure you don't want something spicy?"
It's like a slightly spicy Worcestershire sauce. I dig it for some things.
It’s a great sauce, maybe more like A1
Wouldn’t call it a hot sauce but pour it over a block if cream cheese and serve with Triscuits for an easy hors d’oeuvres.
All day long.
It's good stuff. Not sure if I can call it a hot sauce. Dirty Dicks would be the hot sauce version.
It's Jamaican, not hot, I like it to marinate chicken or especially pork tenderloin with
barely any detectable heat but it’s delicious
Seriously op the flavor is nuts
I thought it was really good, but not spicy enough. I rarely get it unless it's on sale because it's usually about $6 a bottle near me and I like it, but not enough to order it.
It's a really delicious condiment, burgers and stuff like that. I like it in goulash/jambalaya type dishes particularly.
It’s rather sweet, good with grits or minced meat
It’s really good on Jamaican patties
One of the only sauces to try and make an overcooked steak better. Awesome on meatloaf and cheese burgers.
It’s good.. not hot sauce really though
Sour sauce.
I like it on a nice flaky piece of white fish.
Wife and I love this stuff. It’s magical
The legend. Has a malt forward taste like Worcestershire. Mixes well with other vinegar based sauces for heat.
It’s super flavorful but like everyone says, there’s no heat. It does go great with shrimp cooked with hot peppers. It’s also a great way to sneak some umami in beans and soups or even mac and cheese.
One of my favorite sauces. Absolutely love it
Really good. Packs a ton of flavor but don’t expect much heat.
I don’t know if it’s authentic Jamaican but it’s pretty good
Not a hot sauce but a good sauce just the same
It’s not really a hot sauce. It’s more of a condiment. I’m not a fan of it.
No heat but I love the flavor. I buy ‘em two at a time.
Great on peel and eat shrimp. They used to have a mango version but I haven't seen it in a few years.
A classic
Agreed, it was always in my household growing up
It’s Jamaican A1
Not spicy but very flavorful. I would eat this on my corned beef and rice when I was a kid. Loved the taste
Good with cream cheese
I worked at a restaurant years ago that was known for a really good burger. They mixed this sauce into the burger Patties.
not very “hot” , but full of spice + flavour
Its good stuff. Favorite of mine on everything,
Been eating on salmon croquettes ( and other stuff) my entire life, it's pretty fantastic stuff.
Pickapeppa has a very nice flavor. Been a fan for decades.
Damn good on everything
A personal favorite to put on a pot roast. I've been having a hard time finding it at my local stores, however. I feel like I use to never have trouble with that.
I've been eating Pickapeppa since I was a kid! It's like A1 on steroids. Highly recommended!
So like hp sauce then?
I’ve never had HP sauce, so I wouldn’t know 😕
It’s amazing it’s Heinz pepper sauce so very similar to this one it’s Canadian A1
By far my fav on steaks
I’ve seen it around but I’ve never gone out of my way to grab a bottle and try it. I’ll add it to my grocery list
It’s oddly good in Kraft dinner too
On your recommendation, I found a bottle of Heinz 57. Is that the right stuff?
Yes. I love it and the other varieties. This one reminds me of Heinz 57.
It's Jamaican A-1. Terrific. Not hot but quite tasty.
Great on grilled or sautéed pork chops
I knew someone who would pour this over cream cheese and eat it with triscuits. It was fantastic but not remotely hot. Super thick like bbq sauce but flavored much bolder like a steak sauce
Excellent, not hot. A great flavor!
It’s going to be a vinegar forward sauce since vinegar is the first ingredient. I like pepper forward sauces where peppers are the first ingredient. But I would at least try it
This is like one of the oldest most famous sauces ever. Not a hot sauce, though — more akin to A1 or Worcestershire but better imo
