I mean kebab chili sauces would be nice, but I’d just be happy if we had kebab shops in the US. Nothing beats a late night kebab. I don’t get why they haven’t caught on in the US.

We've got plenty of shawarma and gyro places, that's pretty close

I get your point. But it’s really not that close. It’s like if you’re craving a carne asada burrito and someone says well we have steak fajitas. It’s similar enough, but serve totally different purposes. Plus, most gyro and shawarma places aren’t open at 3-4am the way kebab places are in Europe.

And no chip shops in the US either. Is it even a country, really?

We have kebab shops in America. You just need to be in the right place.

Do tell. I need some new cities to visit.

There are tons of kebab places in Northern Virginia, for what it's worth.

Man i'd forgotten about those up until now. I used to go through one of the kebab House ones and a garlic mayo from the same brand a week

What is that to the right?

Looks to me like a mini pizza

It's a 4 cheese chicago town mini pizza, my chosen medium for the practice of my art.

I know that I may be considered a wrong 'un after seeing all the fancy sauces on this subreddit but Crucials hot chilli sauce is my favourite. I eat it almost everyday and once a week I drown a doner meat and chips in it. Been that way now since I was 15, so 12 years. Cant live without it!

Love some chill sauce on my kebab - how hot are these?

The Extra Hot is the one I rely on most, with the other two being sweeter ketchup style sauces. I'd say it's about the same heat level as habanero tabasco at first taste, but the thickness is what makes a massive difference as it clings to your mouth more than thin sauces. Oh and then you're finding whole chilli seeds in your teeth for an hour afterwards. It's glorious.

I love these sauces! So cheap and reliable :)

Ah mate kebab shop chili sauce is top notch. That sauce brand do all sorts of good shit, they got a Carribean Sweet Chilli which is stunning, hasn't really got anything in the way of spice but full of flavour.

Sauces like these are a staple of every kebab takeaway across the UK and are the cause of many a hungover, toilet-seat-clutching prayer for mercy. They're thicker in consistency than most other hot sauces (which makes it way hotter IME, since it sticks to the mouth like napalm), and full of whole chilli seeds (which ensure it's just as hit on the way out as it was going in).
Well said. The customary massive, pale green whole pepper on top compliments the sauce, and post toilet trauma well too.
