Here we grow again! For those of you that have toured our facility, you know that we name our kettles after Star Wars characters, because, well… Star Wars rules. We have a new character in-house and prepping for install - a 1,600 gallon kettle nicknamed the Sarlacc, after the super massive sand-monster of Tatooine that devours everything that falls into its jaws. All hail the great sauce monster Sarlacc!
