Bombero Sauce

Tiny_Toodles's Note:

Bombero means fireman in spanish. You will need a fireman to put out the fire in your mouth after you eat this! This sauce is delicious on tacos, to smother burritos or anything that needs a little kick!

Really spicy, but it doesn't last too long so it's enjoyable (if you really like hot stuff). We put it on chicken tacos. I did add a couple ingredients (garlic, white vinegar) to add some tang. Otherwise I followed the recipe as printed. I'm saving the leftovers in the fridge for the next time I want something spicy!
