Hi there, What happens when four hot sauce makers apply for a trademark? That's not the start of a bad joke but the topic of the latest Craft Hot Sauce podcast! I interviewed several hot sauce makers, and we all spoke about our past experiences and lessons learned from registering a trademark for a hot sauce brand...
Tis the season for seeing beautiful chili peppers coming in and dreaming up new hot sauces. I've been working on a fermented Louisiana-style sauce that hits this past month and tried dozens of creative homemade hot sauces at the Chilifest Hot Sauce contest put on by Kitchen Garden Farm.
Happy Labor Day weekend! Kitchen Garden Farms puts on an awesome hot sauce festival, and it will be my first one as a vendor. If you're in the New England area, Chilifest on September 15th and 16th is worth going to. It's right next to a corn maze, and they have a chili cook-off and hot sauce competition, spicy food, local beer, and great live music

Howdy there, Lately, I've been feeling inspired to do what I love and do it now! Life is too short to wait on things and not take that risk. So many of the guests on Craft Hot Sauce have shared that advice over the years, but I thought our three contributors this month really nailed it...
Hope you’re getting out there and enjoying the warmer weather, and maybe even checking out some local hot sauce makers at farmer's markets in your area.

Jay makes one of the hottest all-natural hot sauces, Exhoresco, as well as one of my favorite unique hot sauces, White Lightning.
Hi there, It finally feels like spring is here in Boston, and I hope it's getting warm where you are too. The super-hot peppers I've germinated the past couple months are going into the garden, and I'm dreaming up new hot sauces for Craic Sauce. Pepper growers are ramping up their spring schedule, and one of them...
Hi there, How was your March? Mine was a blast. I hosted an Irish taco pop-up at my commercial kitchen and sampled all different types of craft hot sauces to about 200 people. The Guinness braised corned beef and cabbage tacos were delicious. :) It was an extra special day for me...
I started February off by having a conversation with Chris from Char Man Brand. I had a blast talking to Chris and learning about their story. I'm glad he also mentioned the Facebook Group “For the Love of Hot Sauce,” which I've really enjoyed being a part of since he mentioned it...
A few weeks ago, I gave you a New Years Resolution to go to a hot sauce festival, and you’ll get all the motivation you need after listening to this podcast with Steve Seabury from High River Sauces. Steve’s a hot sauce legend and has great advice for putting on hot sauce festivals.
One borough over from Steve is Tim from Pepplish Provisions in Queens, NY. I enjoyed chatting with Tim and was really impressed with his sauces, especially his Peach Agave Garlic sauce, which I put into my Phad Thai recipe on Monday.
Hey there, My New Year’s Resolution was to send our Craft Hot Sauce followers an email on the first of every month. So I’m starting from Jan 17th today!
