Pip’s Hot Sauces, devilishly spicy chilli sauces. Sauces made by chilli heads for chilli heads who love flavour as much as fire. www.pipshotsauce.co.uk

Pip’s Hot Sauces are devilishly spicy chilli sauces. Crafted in small batches to ensure quality, these sauces are made by chilli heads for chilli heads who love flavour as well as spice! Dead rich red & smoky La Boca Del Diablo was the first we came up with. It’s a smoky heat, which has a lovely slow after burn. We use it on pretty much everything we eat here at Hot Sauce HQ. It goes really well on pasta and pizza, is great on poached eggs for a pick you up breakfast and lovely in a Bloody Mary too or a Bloody Maria ;-)

Our next sauce was Feugo del Verde. Pals wanted us to bring them a sweet sauce but we didn’t want to do something that was too jam like. After lots of experimenting we decided to make our sweet sauce with fiery green peppers this gives Feugo a nice peppery kick. A good friend swears by Feugo del Verde as the best partner to a bacon butty but we like to stir fry prawns in it. It also is great for dunking chips and pizza crust into. Sadly we haven’t come up with a cocktail it goes in yet! The baby of the bunch at the moment is Clabaza Malvada. This lovely yellowy orange sauce is made with pumpkin, cumin, coriander, turmeric and a few scotch bonnet chillies. It’s probably our milder sauce but be warned some still feel the heat. Calabaza is more of a sweet and sour sauce. It’s another all rounder great for saucing up a sandwich, dipping over chips or as a marinade. We are always looking for new sauces but we only ever produce things that we love ourselves so are not in the habit of churning stuff out just to increase our range. We do have a couple of sauces in the pipe line that have proved to be addictive in Hot Sauce HQ so it looks like there will be some new saucey goodness coming soon...... Watch this space!

We're here on Greenfield Crescent for the Edgbaston Village Night Market with Birmingham Artisan Markets until 9pm tonight!

And we've brought the big guns.

You OK H'onions are back, and we've got our Christmas special Sleigher with us too. Because apparently it's perfectly normal to be flogging Christmas hot sauce before we've even got Halloween out of the way.

You've got till 9pm to get down here and make some questionable decisions about your taste buds. Get your arse down to Greenfield Crescent!

THE SOCKS ARE BACK!

Yes, you heard right. Pip’s Hot Socks are back, just in time for the season of freezing your arse off.

Because apparently setting fire to your taste buds wasn't enough. Now we're keeping your feet warm too.

You can grab a pair online or get your sweaty little hands on them in person:

Friday 30th October – Edgbaston Village Night Market, 4–9pm

Sunday 1st November – Longbridge Artisan Market, 11am–4pm

Both with my other time vampire Birmingham Artisan Markets

Hot sauce for your mouth. Hot socks for your feet. What more could you possibly want?

Well, for once we're absolutely delighted NOT to be doing any markets this weekend!

With the weather doing its very best to blow Birmingham into the next county, we're quite happy staying indoors, eating crumpets and avoiding having to hold a gazebo down.

And what better way to spend a stormy Saturday than with a couple of crumpets loaded with Marmite, crunchy peanut butter and a generous dollop of Nagatropolis?

Yes, Marmite AND peanut butter. Trust us. Add Nagatropolis and you've got yourself a breakfast worth staying home for.

We'll be back out in the wild next week with Birmingham Artisan Markets

Friday 30th October – Edgbaston Village Night Market, Greenfield Crescent, 4–9pm.

Sunday 1st November – Longbridge Artisan Market, 11am–4pm.

Until then, we're staying warm, eating spicy things and enjoying the rare luxury of not having to put up a gazebo in a gale.

Stay safe out there, folks!

Liquido Luzbel. The devil's own chilli oil.

This stuff is not messing about. Fiendishly hot, ridiculously tasty and absolutely not for the faint-hearted.

A little drizzle will liven up your noodles, pizza, eggs or pretty much anything else you fancy setting fire to.

Just remember, it's an oil, not a bloody challenge. You don't need to drown your dinner in it to find out who's boss.

Consider yourself warned.

You can get your hands on this little bottle of hellfire online, or find us out in the wild this weekend with Birmingham Artisan Markets

TODAY– Jewellery Quarter Artisan Market, until 3pm.

TOMORROW – Bournville Artisan Market, Bournville Green, 11am–3pm.

Come and get some heat in your life.

It's getting to that time of year again when I spend a frankly ridiculous amount of time putting together these little beauties.

Our Pip's Hot Sauce Taster Sets. A selection of fiery goodness, all tucked up in a rather splendid box featuring artwork by the excellent Molly Clever

Perfect for gifting to the chilli lover in your life. Or keeping for yourself. I'm not here to judge.

Every year I tell myself I'll get ahead of the game and make loads in advance. Every year I end up surrounded by tiny bottles and boxes wondering what on earth happened to November.

And so it begins...

You can find us out in the wild this weekend with Birmingham Artisan Markets

Saturday – Jewellery Quarter Artisan Market, Golden Square, 10–3.

Sunday – Bournville Artisan Market, Bournville Green, 11–3.

Come and get your hot sauce fix. Christmas shopping entirely optional at this stage.

Big shout out to the rather ace Marnie, who pulled an absolute blinder of a shift flinging sauce at the Autumn Botanical Gardens Artisan Market!

And can we just take a moment to appreciate her T-shirt?

What an absolute legend. Proper sauce-slinging superstar! 🌶️❤️

Can't believe Botty G's was

You OK H'onions?

Well, you might not be after eating these little bastards.

Seriously hot. Seriously delicious. And a serious pain in the arse to make.

Every year I question my life choices while making them. Every year I swear I'm never doing them again. And yet, here we are.

The good news is they're finally in jars. The bad news is they need a few weeks to mature before they're ready to unleash on the unsuspecting public.

So hold your horses, you impatient lot. Good things come to those who wait. Apparently.

Today I dragged Nicky round the The Coffin Works | Museum | Birmingham for a bit of wholesome tourist business in our own city.

Obvs with a morbid twist, because, well... have you met her?

I got sod all photos, so here's one of us from IDOB instead.

Fun fact: we're pretty sure our tour guide today was the bassist in a nearly famous 70s prog rock band. I thought I'd worked out who he was, but now I'm not so sure. Should have just bloody asked him, shouldn't I?

Anyway, enough of this wholesome gubbins. Back down the sauce mine.

We've got Kings Heath Artisan Market this Sunday, 10–3 on York Road, with my other time vampire Birmingham Artisan Markets

And although they won't be ready for bloody ages, there may also be some of those sodding onions to start picking. 🤬🤬🤬

The glamorous life of a hot sauce magnate never ends.

SEPTEMBER WAS INSANE… AND OCTOBER ISN’T SLOWING DOWN.

September was an absolute whirlwind for Pip’s Hot Sauce — markets, events, Royal Brumbles, International Days of Birmingham, Brummie quizzes, hangovers, brilliant people and a ridiculous amount of running around.

And judging by our October calendar… we’ve apparently decided REST IS FOR NOVEMBER.

WHERE TO FIND PIP’S HOT SAUCE THIS OCTOBER:

Sat 3rd — Birmingham Botanical Gardens Artisan Market
Sun 4th — Longbridge Artisan Market
Sun 11th — Kings Heath Artisan Market
Sat 17th — Jewellery Quarter Artisan Market
Sun 18th — Bournville Artisan Market
Sat 24th — Moseley Farmers Market
Fri 30th — Edgbaston Village Halloween Night Market

So if you need to stock up, fancy trying something new, or just want to come and talk absolute nonsense about chilli sauce with us — come and say hello.

Somewhere amongst all that we’ll also be making, bottling and flogging a LOT of hot sauce.

September was chaos.

October is looking like MORE OF THE SAME.

BRING. IT. ON.

What an absolute honour to have my name on GoldShip Re-Union Jack.

Such a brilliant piece of work — repurposing old, disintegrating Union Jacks into something that celebrates Birmingham as it actually is: a city with a ridiculously rich cultural heritage, shaped by people from all sorts of backgrounds, communities and walks of life.

The flag is covered in the names of Brummies who’ve made, moved, shaken and shaped this city, and there are some properly inspiring names on there.

And then there’s me. Lol.

Genuinely though, seeing my name amongst them is a bit mind-blowing. I spend a lot of time banging on about how Birmingham needs to big itself up more, and this feels like exactly that — taking something old and creating something that represents the brilliant, diverse, creative city we are now.

Very proud to be a tiny part of it.

Viva Brum ✌️
