The best spicy dip is robust, crave-able, and spicy (duh). It’s perfect paired with veggies, crackers, and chips. Plus, “spicy dip” can mean so many different things! There are so many types of spicy dips.
Personally, I’m a fan of all of them. And, for me, the spicier the better. I tried a whole slew of dips to see which truly set my mouth (and heart) on fire. Here, we compiled a list of the tastiest, most flavorful, and spiciest dips in each dip category.

- Marketside Buffalo Style Chicken Dip
-
Marketside Buffalo Chicken Dip is the most buffalo chicken-y buffalo chicken dip on the market. It’s super tangy, a little spicy, and really creamy. There are chunks of celery and chicken, which really make you feel like you’re getting the buffalo chicken experience. This would be phenomenal as a dip with pita chips or carrots. Or you could spread it on a wrap with lettuce and cucumbers, like I did, for an easy lunch. Either way, this is the buffalo chicken dip you should buy if you’re looking for the best spicy dip.

- Casa Sanchez Foods Hot Salsa Roja
-
Casa Sanchez Foods Hot Salsa Roja was the best salsa in our salsa taste test. It’s not super hot, but it has a nice spice. It’s super fresh and has the perfect texture. It’s not too thick and not too thin. This would be wonderful by itself with tortilla chips or mixed into queso for a creamy salsa con queso. If you’re looking for a spicy dip that people might think you made from scratch, this is a great option.

- Litehouse Southwest Jalapeno Ranch Dip
-
This tastes exactly like Taco Bell’s spicy ranch. Do I even need to say anything else? No. However, I will. It is so tangy and creamy and zesty. It makes your mouth water. But I must be honest, it’s not spicy. Even so, it really does taste exactly like Taco Bell’s “spicy” ranch, ergo I will include it. I can’t say it enough: This “spicy” dip tastes like Taco Bell’s spicy ranch. Homemade Cheesy Gordita Crunches, here I come!

- Doritos Spicy Nacho Flavored Dip
-
This spicy dip is actually spicy, which is shocking! Nacho Cheese Doritos aren’t spicy at all. My expectations were on the ground for this one, but I was totally wrong. I’m so sorry, Doritos. I will always believe in you moving forward. This is creamy, cheesy, flavorful, spicy, and so much more. This would be great on nachos or poured into a burrito. It’s a fun conversation starter if you put it on the table at a party. Imagine dipping a nacho cheese Dorito into this!

- Chipotle Bitchin’ Sauce
-
If you’re looking for a dip that’s seriously spicy, Chipotle Bitchin’ Sauce is the best spicy dip for you. This made our list of the best Costco dips, and I’ll tell you now what I told you in that ranking: This is one of the few dips on the market that is honestly spicy. And I’m a high-heat spice lover! Plus, it’s vegan, making it more versatile. This would be great as a sandwich spread, vegetable dip, or even a pasta sauce (if you’re feeling freaky). Bitchin’ sauce is, in fact, bitchin’ and I think you should buy it. It’s the best spicy dip out there.
