Yes! All of our sauces are made with only the freshest peppers and spices. Our purpose is to make every meal taste amazing, so we never compromise with fillers, thickeners or other ingredients like those other guys use. We control every step of our process from stem to sauce so you know you’re only getting the best we have to offer every time.

We keep our sauces allergen-free by producing our sauce in our own facility that does not process soy, milk, eggs, meat, nuts, wheat, or gluten. We also never use MSG in any of our products. If you have specific concerns, please reach out to us.

Our entire line of sauces are naturally vegan and gluten-free. For those with dietary restrictions, our Original Hoff Sauce, Mean Green, Smoken Ghost hot sauce and Dirty Dust seasoning are keto and paleo-friendly. Only our Hoff BBQ Sauce, Smoken Ghost Ketchup and Wake Up Call hot sauce contain cane sugar.

We use our own rating system for our sauces as Scoville Ratings can be very subjective. The Scoville test is essentially an advanced taste test and since everyone’s taste buds are different, it doesn’t really give an accurate representation of how hot a sauce really is. We always put quality and flavor first before heat so here’s a breakdown of how we rate our sauces:

1. 1. Lightweight: Original BBQ and Dirty Dust.
   2. Great Taste: Original Hoff Sauce, Mean Green, Wake Up Call, and Smoken Ghost Ketchup.
   3. Teary-eyed: Smoken Ghost Hot Sauce.

Our Hoff Sauce, Mean Green, Smoken Ghost, and Dirty Dust Seasoning do not require refrigeration. In fact, we recommend eating them at room temperature in order to fully enjoy their flavor profile. However, we do recommend refrigerating our Wake Up Call, Smoken Ghost Ketchup and Original BBQ Sauce after opening due to the presence of sugars.

All of our products are marked with an expiration date on the bottle, but the shelf life of our products vary:

1. 1. Our Original Hoff Sauce, Mean Green, Smoken Ghost and Southern Stinger all have a shelf life of 3 years.
   2. Our Wake Up Call Hot Sauce and Dirty Dust seasoning have a shelf life of 2 years.
   3. Our Hoff BBQ Sauce and Smoken Ghost Ketchup have a shelf life of 1 year.

Currently, our Southern Stinger is only available through Fuego Box. You can get it here: Fuego Box Southern Stinger.
