Hank Sauce Herb Infused Hot Sauce – 8.5 fl oz

Hank Sauce Herb Infused Hot Sauce – 8.5 fl oz

The original Hank Sauce recipe combines aged peppers, wine, garlic, salted butter, and basil with approachable 4/10 heat.

⭐ Product Overview

Hank Sauce Herb Infused Hot Sauce is the original recipe that started the Hank Sauce lineup. Built around the signature Hank Base of aged peppers, distilled vinegar, salt, and xanthan gum, it adds wine, garlic, salted butter, and basil for a distinctly savory, herb-infused take on everyday hot sauce.

Rated 4/10 – Medium on the PepperHotSpot heat scale, this sauce is designed to bring noticeable warmth without burying the food underneath it. Garlic and basil give the sauce its herb-forward character, while wine and salted butter distinguish it from a basic vinegar-and-pepper table sauce.

That versatility is central to the original Hank Sauce. Use it on burgers, chicken, seafood, tacos, vegetables, or fries, or stir it into soups and tomato-based dishes when you want both pepper heat and savory herb flavor.

Hank Sauce began as a homemade recipe shared among college roommates and developed into the foundation of the brand. The company now produces its sauces in South Jersey, but Herb Infused remains the original bottle—the sauce Hank Sauce affectionately refers to as “the OG.”

⭐ Flavor Story

Hank Sauce Herb Infused is where the Hank Sauce story began. The original recipe grew out of a homemade sauce shared among college roommates, including founders who were not initially hot sauce fans themselves.

Instead of building the recipe around extreme heat, they developed a sauce meant to complement everyday food. The Hank Base supplies the aged-pepper foundation, while garlic, wine, salted butter, and basil give the finished sauce its recognizable savory and herb-infused character.

That original approach became the foundation for the Hank Sauce lineup and explains why Herb Infused remains the brand's original “OG” sauce.

⭐ Recipe

Hank Sauce Herb-Infused Garlic Shrimp Toasts

Ingredients

1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons Hank Sauce Herb Infused Hot Sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 slices crusty baguette
2 tablespoons softened butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
Pinch of salt

Directions

1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and spread each lightly with butter.

2. Toast for 6–8 minutes, until the edges are crisp and lightly browned.

3. While the bread toasts, pat the shrimp dry. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

4. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2 minutes on the first side. Turn, add the minced garlic, and cook another 1–2 minutes, until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through.

5. Reduce the heat to low. Add 2 tablespoons Hank Sauce Herb Infused Hot Sauce and toss the shrimp for about 30 seconds, just long enough to coat them without cooking away the sauce.

6. Place the hot shrimp over the toasted baguette slices and finish with fresh basil.

7. Serve immediately with Hank Sauce Herb Infused Hot Sauce at the table for an additional drizzle.

The garlic and basil in the recipe reinforce ingredients already present in Hank Sauce Herb Infused, while the 4/10 pepper heat gives the shrimp noticeable warmth without dominating the seafood.
