Enchiladas with a kicked up Chili Con Carne Sauce from Robb Walsh’s Texas Eats

After more than 20 years of judging the Austin Chronicle Hot Sauce Contest, Robb Walsh set out to write The Hot Sauce Cookbook, but realized there was a whole world of hot sauce recipes out there waiting to be discovered. Sure, there’s the Anchor Bar’s Buffalo Chicken Wings and the original Bloody Mary, but what about adding hot sauce to a spicy Vietnamese crawfish dip or flavoring pulled pork with Sriracha?

So Robb, the author of Texas Eats and The Tex-Mex Cookbook among other books, is throwing another kind of contest. The most inventive recipes for pepper sauces or dishes using hot sauce submitted to the contest page at The Recipe Club’s Facebook will get their recipe published in his cookbook–slated for Spring 2013–among other prizes. See below for more info!

For inspiration, check out our Hot Sauce Pinterest board with loads of creative ways to cook with hot sauce. And good luck!
