For a smokier flavor, try using smoked paprika in addition to the chili powder. If you don't have bacon grease, olive oil can be substituted, but the bacon grease adds a unique flavor. Adjust the amount of pepper sauce to your preferred level of spiciness. Consider adding a can of diced tomatoes for extra texture.
