A true original from the Yucatán Peninsula, El Yucateco Red Chile Habanero Hot Sauce is the recipe that helped define a legacy. Crafted with care since 1968, this vibrant red sauce embodies the rich culinary heritage of Mexico—where fresh chiles, ripe tomatoes, and time-honored techniques come together in perfect harmony.
Founded by Priamo J. Gamboa, El Yucateco began as a small family enterprise dedicated to producing authentic homemade habanero sauces. From those humble beginnings, the brand has grown into a globally respected pioneer in habanero hot sauces and traditional Mexican condiments, exporting its unmistakable flavor to the United States, Europe, Asia, and Oceania—while remaining deeply rooted in its origins.
A Classic Recipe That Endures
Red Habanero is one of El Yucateco’s most celebrated and enduring creations. Prepared from a traditional blend of fresh habanero peppers, red tomatoes, and carefully selected spices and seasonings, this sauce delivers a balanced profile that is both fiery and flavorful.
Free from extracts and artificial concentrates, it offers authentic heat derived solely from real habanero chiles. With a Scoville range of 7,600 to 9,500, it provides a bold, confident heat that satisfies seasoned spice enthusiasts while maintaining remarkable depth of flavor.
Its distinctive full-bodied consistency coats the palate beautifully, allowing the natural sweetness of tomato and the brightness of habanero to shine through.
Flavor with Character
This is the sauce that has earned its place at tables for generations. Its savory complexity makes it exceptionally versatile:
Enhance seafood, especially shrimp cocktail and grilled fish
Add depth to tacos, enchiladas, and traditional Mexican dishes
Elevate roasted meats and poultry
Stir into guacamole for a lively, zesty touch
Create a vibrant Bloody Mary, Michelada, or classic Sangrita with tequila
Just a few drops bring warmth and dimension to both everyday meals and refined culinary creations.

El Yucateco’s commitment to quality has earned international acclaim, including a first-place Scovie Award from Fiery Foods Magazine recognizing the brand’s mastery in habanero hot sauce craftsmanship.
