What is Búfalo Sauce?
Búfalo hot sauce comes in several exciting flavors. Some popular ones are Chipotle, Jalapeño, and Picante Clasica, which uses chili peppers.
Flavor Over Just Heat
Many Mexican sauces, including Búfalo, are known for their great taste, not just how spicy they are. This means Búfalo sauce adds a lot of flavor to your food without always being super hot.
Sauce Thickness
Búfalo sauce is thicker than many American hot sauces you might find. It's not as thick as ketchup, but it's similar to the thickness of many steak sauces. This makes it good for dipping or adding to dishes.
Tampico Brand Sauces
Búfalo also sells sauces under the Tampico brand. These come in flavors like Chipotle, Original, and Habanero. Tampico sauces usually come in smaller bottles and are a bit fancier than the regular Búfalo sauces.
Búfalo's Popularity
Búfalo sauce is made in large amounts, which is called mass production. It has become very popular in the United States. This is because regular grocery stores now sell products that used to be found only in Mexican food stores.
Finding Búfalo in Stores
Because of this, Búfalo sauce is now on the shelves of many everyday grocery stores. This has helped it reach many new people who enjoy its unique flavor.
Búfalo and Sports
Búfalo also supports Necaxa, a professional association football (soccer) team in Mexico. This helps the brand connect with fans and show its support for Mexican culture.
