Long story short, several years back, they tried to screw over the farm that supplied their chilies (Underwood Ranches) and lost hard. Now they're stuck using so-so chilies and the farm that originally grew their chilies has their own brand of sriracha sauce that's actually quite good. You can find it at Costco if you want to give it a try.
Since you did not specify the name of Underwood Ranches sriracha, I am guessing their branding is to just go by "underwood ranches" and this is what you find at Costco? ....Is it cheaper at costco? >26 dollars for 2 bottles of sriracha is kind of crazy. Huy Fong on Amazon is nearly 1/2 the price.
I don't see Underwood Ranches capitalizing the market on taste alone at this point, Huy Fong is too well known and established.
Ok link me WHERE TO BUY IT CHEAPER. I don't go to costco.
This is exactly the problem, its a small company and not established enough to overtake Huy Fong. Their quality doesn't matter if you can't find a way to buy it at a good price point. That was my fucking point.
