243839205Usually when someone writes “seduction” and “jerk” in the same sentence, they’re either referring to some jackass who broke their heart, or a date with a bottle of lotion. Not when it comes to the sweet awesome that is Pirate Johnny’s Syrena’s Seduction Jamaican Jerk Hot Sauce, though. It’s a Jamaican-inspired sweet heat that’s long on island flavor with a mild to moderate burn.

Not only that, it was Pirate Johnny’s first attempt at creating a hot sauce. I’ve talked about the company’s spice rubs before. This sauce is my favorite of their products (so far). It surfs the knife’s edge between sweet and heat like a pro; balance is key to the best sauces and rubs. Pirate Johnny’s bull’s eyed the mark with Syrena’s Seduction in my opinion.

leadIt definitely works magic with pork, poultry, or fish. I don’t think it plays well with red meat, although that’s a hunch. I’m going to try it with hot wings next. This test flight, I put Syrena through her paces on andouille sausage burgers with bacon, grilled pineapple, and mango.
