0:34

Hey, what's going on Hot Ones fans?

0:34

This is Sean Evans and it's that time to unveil our season 30 Hot Ones hot sauce lineup.

0:41

30 seasons, can you believe that? I know I can't.

0:43

Look at us, who would have thought? Definitely not me.

0:48

But before we get into it, I want to say thank you so much for the support that you gave us in season 29.

0:51

From our gentle, thoughtful Jason Segel premiere to the chaos of our BTS finale, we are so grateful that we get to pop up the show year after year after year. And you know what? It's all thanks to you.

1:04

But now it's time to turn the page in a new chapter of Hot Ones, season 30. And here is our lineup.

1:12

To kick things off at sauce number one, we have Down to Ferment with That's What Shishito Says.

1:20

Based out of San Diego, California, our new friends at Down to Ferment bring you this mild sauce featuring roasted shishito peppers, kombucha, miso, and black garlic.

1:27

It's giving Nobu vibes and I for one can't wait to try it.

1:30

This lineup is one of our most vibrant, flavorful rosters to date and That's What Shishito Says sets the tone.

1:36

And now let's move on to sauce number two where we head north to Montreal with another flavor-packed sauce.

1:46

Good Heats Hot Perigee delivers a rich, veggie-forward umami flavor explosion with an eggplant and roasted tomato blend.

1:53

The sharp, full mouth heat hits fast and furious, but it's settles just as quickly, leaving you wanting another bite.

2:00

And while we're talking about another bite, let's move on to sauce number three in a familiar foe.

2:04

Say hello once again to Hot Ones pickled garlic sriracha.

2:11

Our twist on an all-time hot sauce style, pickled garlic sriracha ups the ante with pickly dill and a squeeze of citrus to bring it to a whole new level.

2:19

Pickled garlic sriracha, a huge hit in season 29.

2:21

Let's see if it plays just as well in season 30.

2:23

And as we move on down the hot sauce lineup, we're kicking the heat up a little bit with Black Eyed Susan's chickpea latte.

2:32

A pirate's job is never done and Black Eyed Susan is back for more this season with their unique sauce that mixes smoky chipotle, tangy sumac, and creamy chickpea.

2:40

That's right, we've got ghost pepper in sauce number four.

2:42

Our guests are going to learn very quickly that we're not playing around here in season 30.

2:47

And then, they'll move on to the halfway mark, sauce number five, and another label returning to the table.

2:55

Hot N Saucy is back with Puckerbutt and Scorpion.

2:58

Puckerbutt and Scorpion is inspired by Caribbean pickled relish, combining cabbage, sour orange, bell pepper, and habanero for a deliciously puckery condiment.

3:06

Chef Sam is back with another comfort food inspired sauce.

3:09

We're thrilled to have him back at the table.

3:13

And we're going to keep the Caribbean vibes going as we move on to the back half.

3:16

Once again, Hot Ones tropical amariel in the sixth spot.

3:22

Drawing inspiration from quintessential Caribbean flavors, tropical amariel blends pineapple and mango with the bright citrusy heat of scotch bonnet and fatalii peppers.

3:29

The sweet heat punch of tropical amariel is the perfect flavor to get the back half going. But you know what?

3:35

At number seven, we stop throwing body blows and we start breathing fire.

3:41

Say hello to Sinai Gourmet's 8 Dragon.

3:44

Sauce maker Lawrence Isaac is all about clean ingredients.

3:46

The label says it's the luckiest hot sauce in the world, but our guests won't be feeling that way.

3:53

This sauce is sweet, it's sour, it's bold, and it is hot.

3:56

And while we're on the topic of hot, back once again The Bomb Beyond Insanity holding it down in the eighth spot.

4:06

To borrow a quote from season 29 Hot Ones alum Luke Combs, they say nothing lasts forever, but they ain't seen us together.

4:13

The Bomb Beyond Insanity permanently enshrined in its eighth spot on the gauntlet.

4:18

Our guests want to see you go, but not me, The Bomb.

4:22

You'll be with me forever.

4:22

Toxic love, what are you going to do?

4:25

All right, moving on here to sauce number nine, XXX Salsa Vibes.

4:32

This salsa inspired sauce from High Desert Sauce Company combines bold chili peppers, roasted tomato, smoked paprika, and lime.

4:38

Some say it's the perfect balance of heat and flavor, but if you ask me, I think the scales tip pretty hard towards heat.

4:44

All right, it's that time.

4:47

We've made it to the top of Mount Scoville.

4:51

Hot Ones The Last Dab The Thermogeddon from Mad Pepper Scientist Smokin' Ed Currie combining four of the hottest peppers on Earth, Pepper X, Apollo, Carolina Reaper, and Scorpion.

4:59

It's tradition around here to put a little extra on the last wing.

5:02

You don't have to if you don't want to, but when I put it that way, most people do.

5:06

All right, and there you have it.

5:09

It's the season 30 Hot Ones hot sauce lineup in all of its glory.

5:14

Look at the labels, look at the colors, vibrant, flavorful, and very, very spicy.

5:19

And if you're watching this, I'd imagine you'd been around the block a couple of times with Hot Ones, so you know the drill.

5:25

When you see the Hot Ones hot sauce lineup reveal, that means that new episodes start next week.

5:33

We'll see you next week with the premiere on season 3-0, the dirty 30 bird 30 birdie baby. We'll see you there. Ba-da-bing.
