You must be referring to the red sauce they put on enchiladas - I also like the enchilada verde sauce.

I've long suspected the key to the awesome salsa at my favorite authentic Mexican restaurants was canned tomatoes, so I was excited to try this. This is so easy to make. I made it twice: the first time, I followed it exactly. The thing about salsa is that it's very subjective and easy to tweak, so I gave this five stars, even though I found it a little too soupy, a little too hot and it was missing something... which I realized was onions and garlic. So I tried it again: draining the tomatoes, adding two tablespoons of diced onions, a 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder and taking it down to one jalapeno. Success! This is a great recipe to tweak for your own tastes. Love it!

Default Tapatio sauce is not the same as 'Berto's

I happen to have a bottle of Tapatio sitting in front of me and a leftover Berto's burrito. I ran out of sauce and thought I would try the Tapatio as a substitute. Nope. It's not nearly as good as the stuff in the vats at Berto's. (Cholula is also not a good substitute, btw.) Keep looking...

If you want to try making it yourself: Taco Shop Hot Sauces - Home Cooking - Chowhound

If you're willing to settle for a bottled sauce, this is the stuff they put out on the tables: Valentina

I now take four or five roma tomatoes with the skin off some cilantro and pepper flakes to taste and I put them in either a Cuisinart or a hand held blender and mix it to the consistency of Roberto's hot sauce. Its the best and the closest I have found and its great.
thanks

Default SD Bolts

I too am removed from So Cal and have tried everything to find a recipe for that neon orange hot sauce from the Alberto's in Carlsbad and O'side. That stuff was AMAZING. I thought it might be habenero pepper, alas...WAY WRONG! Could it be just the blend of two chilis reconstituted with the water and some vinegar?

God I miss the 'bertos. All and any of them. I'd kill for some decent rolled tacos with guacamole. Machaca. Carne asada burrito. Hard to find in Dallas.
