The Tabasco Cookbook: 125 Years of America's Favorite Pepper Sauce
By Paul McIlhenny, Barbara Hunter
Gramercy - 2004
Really good stuff. I used tuna, but I think the sauce would work with white meat chicken, maybe even pork. Easy and very tasty.

Craig Claiborne's Ultimate Hamburger : page 88
I found this same recipe, minus the Tabasco sauce, somewhere on the web. It's really easy. Essentially you just sear, then cook some plain hamburger patties, then top with a pat of butter (I think it's a good idea to do this in the pan, so the butter can be soaked up when you toast the buns), and a little sauce made of (for each patty) 1/4tsp Worcestershire sauce, 1/8tsp Tabasco sauce, 1/2tbl lemon juice. Sprinkle on 1tbl chopped parsley. You might add a slice of onion. Extra yummy.

Devil's Chicken : page 83
This is one of our favorite chicken recipes. The meat is tender and flavorful after marinating in lemon juice and Tabasco. Yum!

Peppered Pecans : page 14
A yummy snack, definitely more-ish.
If you like things really spicy, you might consider bumping up the Tabasco sauce to 3 teaspoons or more. These are tasty, but not seriously hot.

Salmon Steaks with Cucumber Sauce : page 75
There being only salmon for one at the store today, I made this with some nice little tuna steaks. It was quite good, but at table we found the tabasco unnoticeable. I'd double this to get a bit of a tingle from it.

Scallops in Double Pepper Sauce : page 62
Surprisingly good.
Our only criticism was that there wasn't enough Tabasco. Think the amount should be doubled (so a half recipe uses what's printed).
The bell peppers and Tabasco went surprisingly well together and didn't overwhelm the scallops. The capers added at the end we just the right touch of je-ne-sais quoi.
A keeper.
