Size: 250ml glass bottle

Reckon a BBQ sauce should just sit there being sweet? Boomenero didn't get the memo. This is Booma's sweet-tangy base with a proper hit of habanero smuggled in — the kind of sauce that makes you say "ohh" on the second bite and reach for a third anyway. Sweet enough to please the crowd, hot enough to earn respect.
Front is sweet and tomatoey with that familiar Boomtang tang. Mid brings the fruity, floral punch of habanero (a full 10% of the bottle). The finish is where it earns its name — cayenne, chilli and a whisper of Szechuan pepper leave a slow, warming glow that lingers without wrecking your palate.
A deep, glossy red with a pourable, clingy body — thick enough to coat a wing, loose enough to brush. You'll see the flecks of chilli and pepper that mean business.
Ingredients: Sugar, vinegar, water, tomato, habanero (10%), Worcestershire sauce, onion, apple concentrate, salt, chilli, starch, acidity regulator (citric), cayenne pepper, garlic powder, pepper, Szechuan pepper, vegetable gum (xanthan), cloves.
Dietary: Contains chilli and habanero. Made with Worcestershire sauce, which may contain fish (anchovy) and gluten (barley malt) — always check the physical label.

The Smuggler reckons this is where Boomtang grows up — a proper hit of habanero smuggled under the sweetness. Season your wings with Coast n Smoke The Rip, then glaze this on late so the sugars set without scorching. Finish with a dab of Drunken Sailor Raspberry & Wasabi Mustard to keep the crowd honest. Sweet enough to please, hot enough to earn respect. — Cap'n Darryl
🏴☠️ Darryl's Secret: Boomenero Pulled Pork Sliders
Small buns, big bite.
You'll need: 1kg cooked pulled pork; ½ cup Boomenero Spicy BBQ Sauce; 12 slider buns; 2 cups coleslaw.
Do this:
Why it works: The cool slaw balances the building habanero heat.
How hot is Boomenero? Medium-hot — a real habanero warmth (10% of the bottle) that builds and lingers, while staying sweet-tangy underneath rather than blowing your head off.
What's the difference between Boomenero and Boomtang? Same sweet-tangy Booma's base — Boomenero folds in a proper hit of habanero. Boomtang is the mild one.
What should I put it on? Hot wings, pork ribs, pulled pork and burgers. Great glazed on late, or as a dipping sauce for the brave.
