Anyone know what that weird sauce that's at some restaurants (on the table in a woozy bottle) is called? Not the clear one with yellow peppers in side. The dark brown one that's not really spicy, but peppery. I thought it was called "pepper sauce" but nothing is showing up. Have a buddy that really likes it and was going to try to make him a batch for his birthday. Thanks.

This?

That is the closest I can find when searching online, but the one I'm thinking of is one that you'd see at many different restaurants on the table, they all taste the same, but they all have been copacked by someone else. I wish I had one that I could share a picture of. It's a very vinegar/pepper flavor.

Here's one.

You'll really only see it at pubs, but this is the only one I could think of that matches that description that you see on tables

Probably Pepper vinegar? Link here

No, not that one. Those are easy. The darker colored ones like pictured above that aren't as common.

You may be stuck on the bottle shape/brand but maybe this? Link Here

Different style bottle I think is what you're after and maybe it is from a copacker? There's a sub shop near me that has exactly what I think you're looking for but I believe they just slap their store name on it.

May try this and add a little heat if you want it? Link Here

Now I'm craving a bacon roll with some brown sauce (HP).

Thanks. Yes, the picture I posted above is from a co-packer as well. He's more of a marketing guy it seems because I went to his social media and he's doing sauces for singers, actors, all sorts of celebrities and it seems he's just changing the label. I'm more interested in wth goes into this type of sauce. The second link you posted seems a little too Asian that what I've had before but maybe not. I might give it a try.

Maybe lizano? Never heard of this but my nephew's ex would always talk about it, it seems to be a central american thing (Guatemala,etc not Nebraska)

Good on eggs especially but different.

love that one, had it in Costa Rica

Was at a BBQ restaurant on Amelia Island in Florida a few years back and one of their apps was a dry rubbed and smoked block of cream cheese that was then covered with jalapeño jelly and served with pork rinds to scoop it with. It was incredible.

If this isn't it, I'm completely lost here. But ~maybe~ Heinz 57, Tapatio, or the brown El yucateco?

None of those really check all of your boxes.. but I do wonder.. could you maybe be thinking of a Lea & Perrins bottle? That would satisfy wide availability, brown sauce, woozy bottle, private labeling, consistent flavor, and not hot.. just not a pepper sauce. Throw in A1 as well while we're at it.

Yeah, it's surprising to me as well how hard it is to find a recipe, or even an example of the sauce. Seems like when I was younger a lot of restaurants had them on their tables. The closest example I found is the picture I posted above with the cowboy on the label. It's a black pepper sauces that's not spicy. Vinegar obviously. If I remember correctly I do believe the flavor isn't too far off from A1, but it's been a while since I've had any.

Last Try: Blossom Valley Pepper Plant Hot Sauce

Tiger sauce
