Daves Adjustable Hot Sauce Saved me from the Amazon
You might think that my last experience with the Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce made me quit, seeing as how it’s been a while since my last diary. I am happy to report that’s not the case. You see, I went to the Amazon in search of a new and elusive pepper variety and was abducted b ...
Hot Sauce Diaries: Satan’s Ghost
I’m not so sure I’m ready for number 8. Perhaps with the hurricane making its way through Key West, Pete and the folks at Peppers think I should share in some pain, so we’re going with Satan’s Ghost Hot Sauce. I suspect the latter part of the name is well justified. The good ...
Hot Sauce Diaries: Crazy Jerry’s Mustard Gas
Lucky Number 7 for the HSD. We’re going with a mustard sauce for this one. Crazy Jerry’s Mustard Gas to be specific. The first thing about this sauce that is very cool is the bottle. It comes in a little metal bottle with some great graphics of a scared looking man in a gas ...

Hog’s Ass Garlic Habanero Hot Sauce
Here we are at #4 in the Hot Sauce Diaries. I feel like a chimpanzee shoved a flame thrower down my throat and beat me with a branch. Why? Because I ate a lot of Hog’s Ass Garlic Habanero Hot Sauce. As I said from the get go, I promise to be honest about the sauces I eat for ...
Rising Sun Apple Cinnamon Chipotle Hot Sauce
#3 brings us to Rising Sun Cinnamon Chipotle Hot Sauce from Rising Sun Pepper Farm. I expected this to be a mild sauce, after all it is an apple based sauce and uses chipotle as the name implies. With a review of the ingredients, I saw that the first ingredient is indeed app ...
Crazy Jerry’s Habanero Stuffed Olives
Here we are with #2, Crazy Jerry’s Habanero Stuffed Olives. My initial thought is that these are going to be good. I like olives, particularly Spanish and Kalamata, and particularly in a really dirty (as in pour a quarter of the liquid from a jar) martini. The guys at ...
