It is a Louisiana style hot sauce. Most major Grocery store carry it.

Great stuff - probably preferred over Tabasco in Louisiana (and certainly at my house) - less vinegary taste.
crystal is good sauce, i never heard of ketchup in wing sauce buts that's what makes wings so great, everyone can do their own thing. :)
i usually use franks xhot sauce, butter and add some cayenne powder to kick it up. if i'm looking for something different, i take the basic sauce and add parm, garlic and some Italian spices. sometimes use chipotle powder instead of cayenne. damm now i want wings but only have use of one hand, so its not going to happen. :(
The ketchup is really just a binder. It mellows the crystal a bit and helps it stick to the chicken.
Great looking eats and views, Snelly!!!
Where wuz you camping at?
Nice pictures :D
I don't call that camping with Palm trees
Where I go camping theres no trees like that
I call that a trip down south

It's the condo on wheels that make it "not camping," not the trees.
Wifie loves to go camping.
We go a few times a year in Clayton, MO.

Nice trip!
