HP SauceOriginal 255g

A friend from England suggested that I try this sauce that is very popular in England and is probably in every home there. It's been around forever. So I decided to order a bottle to see for myself. I have mixed reviews as an American that likes to try different sauces. The main ingredient is malt vinegar. That might tell you something right there. It is certainly an acquired taste. It is a little bit like our A1 sauce. It is very strong. I have found that it tastes better alone directly on some kind of meat. When I put it on a cheeseburger with cheese and bread, it did not work for me because of the strong malt vinegar taste. And yet, when I put it directly on a plain burger on a plate or a steak, it tasted great. So for me I would say that it does not work on bread, but that is just my taste. It is a thicker sauce. It certainly is quality but the question is: does it work with our American taste-buds? Like I said, directly on the meat or as a dipping sauce. I would say try and see if it works for you. And not everybody in England likes it. Some in England prefer ketchup. But I do think it is worth trying.

I saw this on a British TV show and decided to try it. They allegedly use it like we Americans use Ketchup. I like the flavor, but it reminds me of a cross between A1 Steak sauce & barbecue sauce, only without the smokinees & a more vinegar flavor. It's okay for a change of pace from normal condiments, but I'll stick to the tried & true Ketchup!

Great taste, a perfect counter to A 1 steak sauce , tangy with a hint of molasses

I have always wanted to try this product. It’s a bit pricey but I love it. A tangy flavor, but not hot or real spicy or overbearing. I have food, allergies, so I have to be very careful of what I eat. This is perfect, I find American A1 sauce tart and spicy for me. HP sauce is a tiny bit sweet but not much. Very flavorful I add it to a lot of things especially my beans and baked chicken. I will be ordering this again as for me a little goes along way so I believe it’s worth the Price.

Received HP sauce securely packaged. No leaks. Tasty sauce. However, there is NO EXPIRATION DATE on the cap or anywhere else on the bottle. First time I've bought HP Sauce, so I don't know if this is typical for this product. Weird to have no expiration date!

AS EXPECTED

The quality was not the problem, nice looking bottle. The taste was horrible, it didn't last long before it met my trashcan.

These had to be replaced after damage in transit due to poor packing. But when the replacements arrived, the sauce was lovely. Just like being In the UK! It has a slightly sweet taste, which adds interest to any dish.
