It’s that time of year again 🌱

The pepper season may be coming to an end, but the fermentations are still going strong! 3 fermented hot sauces coming straight at ya:

🔥 Death Sauce: Our HOTTEST hot sauce yet, this is pure heat. Homegrown Carolina Reaper, New Mexico Big Jim Chili, Trinidad Scorpion, and Bhut Orange Copenhagen are the peppers used and we did not hold back. This hot sauce hits you upfront with a major kick of heat, carried through with some deep honey flavors from the Serrano Chili Honey Vinegar. Where does the fermentation come into play you ask? Well to thin out hot sauce we normally use vinegar or a little bit of water. Not this one, we used the fermented brine from the Trinidad Scorpion Hot Sauce. Why you ask? Well you can’t call it Death Sauce and start cutting corners…

🔥 Fermented Fuego: As the days got shorter and nights got colder I would catch myself looking out the window looking at the pepper plants, pondering on what to do with them. Then one night it hit me, let’s just ferment EVERYTHING. Carolina Reaper, Peach Carolina Reaper, Lemon Starburst, Trinidad Scorpion, Red Chili Chilaca, Chocolate Habanero, Bhut Orange Copenhagen, and Red Fresno all got thrown in a 4% salt brine to sit for over a month. Once pulled, everything was blended up along with a lot of the brine used for the fermentation and a little bit of sweet onion to help round out the heat. This hot sauce is hot, but not a tongue killer as the fermentation helped dissipate some of that raw pepper heat.

🔥 Trinidad Scorpion: Coming I’m at 1.2 million scoville units, the Trinidad Scorpion Pepper is HOT. That’s like the heat of a jalapeño times 480 or a habanero times 12. To make it hotter, we ferment in the same container of Trinidad Scorpions; garlic, carrots, and sweet onions. Carrots and sweet onions should help with the heat? WRONG! Quite literally everything in this fermentation takes on the heat of the Trinidad Scorpion Pepper. So not only are the peppers hot, EVERYTHING that goes into this hot sauce is hot.

$15 a bottle, 5oz bottles. If you have any food allergies please ask before buying.

Sauce ‘em if you got ‘em!

All peppers in these hot sauces are grown by us FROM SEED. With that being said, season is coming to a close soon so let’s hope for some warmer weather these next couple weeks to keep these peppers ripening! Available we have:

- The OG and everyone’s favorite, the Red Fres

- My personal favorite, Carolina Reaper w/ Blackberry & Orange. Picture a lighter BBQ sauce with some heat. Even though this hot sauce has Carolina Reaper, it won’t kill you.

- A new sauce with new peppers! Welcome to the family, Lemon Starburst, Peach Carolina, and Buzz Button. The Lemon Starburst and Peach Carolina not only bring heat to the party, but also some sweetness. The Buzz Buttons, aka Szechuan Button, does exactly what the Szechuan family is meant to do. This flower that we add mildly makes your mouth tingle and feel like it’s buzzing, hence the name Buzz Button. Don’t expect to have this hot sauce completely coat your mouth in a numbing feeling. When you have this hot sauce you can ever so slightly notice the tingling feeling.

$15 a bottle, 5oz bottles, due to limited quantities 1 bottle per flavor please. If you have any food allergies please ask before buying.

Sundays are for the peppers, dried peppers to be exact! We’re dehydrating some Carolina Reaper, Trinidad Scorpion, Bhut Orange Copenhagen, Lemon Starburst, and Red Chili Chilaca. Thinking I’ll gets these things nice and crispy, blitz them in the food processor, and mock up a little HOT pepper flakes seasoning.

Welcome to the Carolina Reaper Family. The one on the right is the good ol fashioned Carolina Reaper. ~2 million scoville units. Tastes hot, smells hot, and makes you cry and sweat. The one on the left is new to us, the Peach Carolina Reaper. Don’t get it confused with the Habanero, this Peach Carolina runs at ~1.5 million scoville units. This pepper has light citrus/sweet notes, smells like nothing, and still makes you cry and sweat.

28 days later and these Carolina Reapers are starting to show their true color. More HOT sauce coming soon!

It’s comes with a heavy heart to say Marino’s Hot Sauce will no longer be operating. I hate putting this in writing, because now it’s official.

I’ve been going back and forth on this for a couple months now. With the new tax laws in place, I’m unable to continue Marino’s Hot Sauce. Between Square and the website service taking a cut from my sales, rising costs in ingredients, the issue of finding websites that have bottles or caps in stock, and now being heavily taxed on top of all of this, it’s not feasible to keep going. I refuse to raise the price of my product in order to continue this adventure. $10 is up their in price for what I’d pay for a 5oz bottle of hot sauce, I’m not having any of you pay more than what I’m willing to pay.

With all that said, I just want to say thank you. Thank you for all the support everyone has given me. Thank you to my family and friends for letting me lean on them for help. Thank you for having faith in me. I’m forever grateful for the relationships that have developed from this experience. Typing this out has truly opened my eyes to how lucky I am on having such an amazing support system constantly around me.

I also want to say sorry. Sorry for letting you down. People would have killed to have the opportunities that were given to me. Between restaurants, breweries, stores reaching out to carry my product. Businesses allowing me to use their platform to help me grow. Friends and families pushing the product to their friends and family. It feels like I’m throwing it all away. I’m sorry

On a brighter note... don’t think this is all over! I’ll still be making hot sauce from time to time and growing peppers during the summer. This hobby of mine isn’t going to go away. Who knows, DM me and I might have some bottles available. I’ll still keep you all up to date on my hot sauce adventures. I’m thinking of pivoting this page to fermentation, how to make hot sauce, hot sauce pairings, and highlighting new and favorite hot sauces of mine.

Thank you all again. I can never say that enough. Let’s aim for a happy, healthy, and positive 2022!

- Eric & Heather
