What Makes It Hot
This hot red enchilada sauce isn’t subtle — and it’s not supposed to be.
The red chile paste delivers a deeper, more intense heat that stands up to hearty fillings like beef, chicken, beans, and cheese. If Mild isn’t cutting it, this is the can you reach for.
(Prefer something gentler? Our Mild version keeps the flavor without the fire.)
