Molho BBQ Trinidad Scorpion Pain Is Good

Three tablespoons over grilled chicken and my nose was running by the second bite — that Trinidad scorpion heat builds fast, but the pineapple sweetness right behind it keeps you coming back for more. Even my spice-loving buddy was sweating, yet we finished the whole bottle in one cookout.

I was skeptical about the pineapple kick since I hate sweet sauces, but it balances the scorpion burn perfectly. I used it on grilled chicken and the heat builds slowly enough that I actually finished my plate before the sweating started.

The pineapple in this is the sneaky part—it hits sweet right before the scorpion pepper fires off, and that sting lingers just long enough to make you go back for another wing. I've had it on ribs and even a burger, and it's the first sauce that's actually lived up to its name without being all heat
