When you fire up the grill, spice up your feast with homemade hot sauce. Food Network personality and chef David Rose is sharing his DIY pineapple habanero hot sauce recipe with "Good Morning America."
This sauce goes great with grilled veggies or anything you like with hot sauce, Rose told "GMA," and takes just seven steps.
If you want a little less spice, you can easily make a milder version by replacing the six habanero peppers with one habanero pepper and one red bell pepper.
