What started in a backyard garden with a six-year-old boy and a hot banana pepper became one of America's boldest hot sauce brands. Elijah's Xtreme was born from a father-son mission: create a thicker, more flavorful, hotter hot sauce than anything else on the market. After three years of trial and error, Bret and Elijah perfected their handcrafted Ghost Pepper Sauce in 2013, and by 2014 they'd landed Bass Pro Shops nationwide—where they remain a top seller to this day. The teenager who ate Smokin' Ed's Carolina Reaper to achieve his childhood dream now runs the company alongside his father, pushing boundaries with everything from mild gateway sauces to their legendary Regret Reserve—a sauce that lives up to its name. With over 600 five-star reviews on their Xtreme Regret alone, this isn't just heat for heat's sake. It's bold flavor, serious craftsmanship, and the authentic passion of two people who genuinely love what they do. From beginner-friendly Roasted Cayenne & Jalapeño to challenge-level Reaper sauces, Elijah's Xtreme delivers quality at every heat level.
Karma Sauce was born from a 2008 locavore challenge when founder Gene set out to create a hot sauce using locally-sourced ingredients like winter squash, honey, and apple cider vinegar. Frustrated with co-packers who relied on canned ingredients and cut corners, Gene built his own micro factory in Rochester, NY and eventually bought a farm to grow his own peppers. Every batch is made from scratch with whole raw vegetables, and all products are gluten-free, preservative-free, and free from added sugars or fats. The company has won numerous awards at national spicy food competitions, including recognition for their Hot Ones appearances (Cosmic Disco Season 19, Scorpion Disco Season 15). This is genuine farm-to-bottle hot sauce made by someone who actually grows the damn peppers themselves.
Proudly Australian-made from paddock to bottle. Lil Becky's Small Batch Hotsauce is the real deal—organic peppers and fresh produce sourced exclusively from local and organic Australian growers, with every batch personally inspected and approved by Lil Becky herself. This isn't mass-produced heat. It's small-batch craft sauce made by people who grow their own peppers, run annual plant sales featuring 250+ unique chili varieties, and will literally send you seeds so you can grow Becky-approved peppers at home. The passion runs deep here. Beyond exceptional sauces, Lil Becky's gives back with every bottle—$1 from each sale supports Pets of the Homeless, and proceeds from their plant sales go to Wildlife Victoria. This is the kind of authentic, community-focused hot sauce brand that makes you feel good about what you're eating and who you're supporting. Australian-grown heat with heart.
Since 1928, Louisiana Hot Sauce has been crafting the authentic cayenne pepper sauce that defines the Louisiana style. Made with aged cayenne peppers, vinegar, and salt, Louisiana Original is the classic tangy, peppery sauce that generations have trusted. From breakfast eggs to gumbo, this is the genuine taste of Louisiana tradition.
Torchbearer Sauces combines bold flavor with serious heat. Known for their appearances on Hot Ones and award-winning recipes, Torchbearer creates sauces that deliver complex flavor profiles without sacrificing intensity. From the extreme heat of Garlic Reaper to the sweet and smoky Son of Zombie, every bottle is crafted for those who refuse to compromise on taste or heat.
Born in 2012 from a backyard garden and an obsession with flavorful heat, Yellowbird started with co-founders Erin & George perfecting a single homegrown habanero sauce—one pepper at a time. What began as a farmers market passion project has grown into a supermarket staple, but the soul hasn't changed. Every sauce is still crafted with farm-fresh peppers and unique fruits and veggies sourced directly from farmers who share their obsession with quality ingredients. No shortcuts, no compromises—just small-batch recipes that work with nature, not against it. From backyard beginnings to nationwide recognition, Yellowbird proves that when you put your heart into every bottle, people taste the difference. This is hot sauce made by people who genuinely love what they do, and it shows in every perfectly balanced, flavour-packed drop.
