Where it all started….

10/06/2026

Reel starts with pre-harvest photos…. All kinds of colors popping, with plenty of green fruit and flowers to follow-up. The super hots are screaming 😱 right now!! The reel closes out from the harvest into the next batches of Pineapple Ghost hot sauce… Who’s in? The amazing flavor and heat is just a postage stamp away…. (We also have our Original blend at heat levels of Mild, Medium, Hot 🥵 , and Nuclear ☢️. Then there is our Habanero Mango, Pineapple Ghost and Chipotle if you are feeling so inclined).

Our Nuclear ☢️ Level Hot Sauce starts with harvesting our super hots at their ripest…. The Ghost and Reapers roll up and smack you as the Scotch Bonnets and Habanero’s fruity punch begins to subside. Completely liquid fire 🔥, but the flavor has you going back for more! (The Nuclear ☢️ Level was developed at the request of our son Jared. Jared Martin - the final recipe was locked in when he approved the heat level was locked in and acceptable).

The reel starts with a few new pepper varietals this year, followed by today’s batches of Habanero Mango and Pineapple Ghost hot sauces. We are up to eleven varieties and waiting for our new labels to arrive. Original blend includes; Mild, Medium, Hot 🥵, and Nuclear ☢️ heat levels. Additional sauce blends include; Habanero Mango, Pineapple Ghost, Chipotle, Salsa Verde, Jalapeño Crème, Jamaican Jerk, and our special small batch Tomatillo based BBQ sauce.

Sunrise is harvest time when the heat index is projected to be over 100 degrees today 🥵. The Ghost and Reaper pepper varieties are finally coloring up enough to harvest for our Nuclear ☢️ Hot Sauce!

Our annual end of summer Phoenix Rising bonfire kicked off with a BBQ and some good eats! As the reel continues you can actually see the Phoenix and Burning Man rise out of the flames. We followed the fire with some pool and hot tub time, and maybe some bourbon for the adults…. maybe 🤔.

Our “Habanero Mango” 🥭 Hot Sauce restock has started!! The twin batch made today should fill just under two cases. I kept the pepper water used to sweat down the variety of peppers, onions, garlic and tomatillos for two reasons. Initially I use the pepper water to thin and get the hot sauce to the right consistency, and the remainder I use as a broth to enhance the flavor of other foods I cook during the week. Mix one to one measurements of chicken stock and the pepper water to make an amazing spiced Spanish rice. You can dice fresh tomatoes from your garden, produce stand, or a farmer’s market and add it to the rice for an amazing fresh flavor. Top it with our Smoked Paprika and a splash of our hot sauce and your mind will be blown!

Finished dehydrating the smoked Anaheim, Jimmy Nardello and Jalapeño peppers…. On to making our first batch of Chipotle Hot Sauce! We have (4) heat levels of our original blend hot sauce; Mild, Medium, Hot 🥵, and Nuclear ☢️, and now (3) flavors; Habanero Mango, Pineapple Ghost, and the newly made Chipotle! All of our hot sauces are blended from fruits and vegetables grown on our farm.
