I can't go with the big burn anymore. But I'm not willing to give up the sauce altogether - always keep a bottle of Frank's and a bottle of sriracha. Use 'em on eggs or meats or veggies or anything starchy.
One of my favorite twists is Louisiana popcorn. I brown the butter instead of just melting it, then put in about six or seven shakes of Frank's - not enough to make it spicy hot, but for that wonderful peppers-and-vinegar aroma & taste. Browning the butter really amps up the flavor too, a great trick for when making cookies or blondies.
