This is the brand I use. I have both Sweet and Hot.

I have McCormick smoked paprika but rarely use it except for a finishing sprinkle occasionally on a seared steak.

That's the brand I use too. I had to check, because the tins I have look a little different. I haven't been able to find the hot one here for a while.
 
So Gulyás (Goulash) is a Hungarian dish adopted by Austria (during the Austro-Hungarian Empire) and served with abundant quantities of paprika - a chile pepper brought over from the New World in the 16th century.
Authentic Hungarian paprika is either sweet or hot. Never smoked.
Austrian goulash is different, I suppose, adapted to Austrian tastes.

Spoken like a true Hungarian!

I prefer the Austrian version, mainly because it is served with Spätzle. Egg noodles are so passé.

I ordered one of each from Amazon this last time. I use them both in my house blend all-purpose seasoning.

Noodles, spaetzle, spaghetti, kluski... love them all! They're like children - you can't have a favorite.

Well, you can have a favorite kid, but that's a completely different discussion. [emoji1]
 
Hard to judge what went wrong without tasting. But I for would not have used smoked paprika. Simply because I don’t like it. I use a lot of Hungarian or Spanish paprika but never smoked.
