Gritter Man's HOSS SAUCE

04/11/2025

Greetings, spicelords!

Regrettably, all sales on are hold for the time being. It has been brought to my attention that my fermented sauces do not fall under the Michigan Cottage Food Law, and that is my mistake for not reading further into it (thanks, whoever reported me! You keep it classy and stay the hell away from me and mine). Ol' Gritter Man is now dealing with the proper food authorities to obtain licensure and undoubtedly hand over some money, but he'll be back in a big way.

For those who've already purchased my products, fear not! I would never give away let alone sell something that did not meet my standards. Rest assured that I handle my preparation and processing with the utmost attention to food safety. As always the fermentation process is closely monitored throughout its tenure for any signs of impurities, then the sauce is pasteurized to kill any active fermentation, the tools are sterilized, the pH is tested to be at shelf-stable levels, and the sauce is hot-bottled at 185 degrees or higher into clean bottles boiled to the same temperature, and then they're immediately capped and flipped, then sealed to eliminate any potential for air contamination. It's almost like I did some homework when I started this thing for my own consumption...🤓

A small bump in the road, just the way she goes - I'm learning as I go.

Stay tuned, my friends. And thanks for the support thus far!

2ND NEW SAUCE DROP OF THE DAY!

This one's a nice little rager for your tastebuds! Fermented habaneros, onion and a touch of garlic mixed up with some fresh mandarinas, white wine vinegar and some Kosher salt.

GREETINGS, SPICELORDS!

New sauce drop!

This one's a mashup of fermented Fresno chilis, a couple Thai chilis, white onion, and fresh garlic then finished off with smoked paprika, Himalayan salt, cumin, coriander, oregano, lime juice, distilled vinegar and some Patron silver. The result is a nice slightly smokey medium-heat utilitarian red sauce that pairs excellently with most anything! I'm calling this one:

MICHIANA MILDFIRE

Same-same if you want some. $8/large bottle, $4/little hand gr***de. Cash business in person, DM for shipping if interested. EVERY BITE DESERVES A DROP!

First of quite a few pepper plants got transferred today. May be in over my head, but time will tell.

Here at GRITTER MAN industries, we try to not let anything go to waste. This is for personal use, but would any of you spice lords be interested in dehydrated pepper mash ground up into a seasoning from their favorite sauce? This is lefties from HANK'S REDDER HOTTER and with the heat and garlic I'm planning to blend this with sea salt and brown sugar for some HOT HOGG RUBBB to put on my next smoked pork excursion. Just gauging interest. Crank on, hosses.

GREETINGS, SPICELORDS!

Have you been enjoying the delectable sauces from yours truly? Feel like leaving some love and dropping a review? I'm thrilled to have received feedback from folks via messenger, but getting the word out to hesitant first timers is going to help GRITTER MAN tremendously. Those who've left a review already - thank you! I'm always striving to get better and make truly unique sauces you can't find anywhere else - every bite deserves a drop!

Be on the lookout for new stuff; April is going to see a load of fresh flavors as a ton of the ferments will be ready to go from the lab and into the bottles! Once things get poppin a bit more downtown I'll set up another table for taste testing, updates to follow.

Sincerely,
GRITTER MAN

NEW HOSS SAUCE DROP

Here I've got a 2 month fermented ratio of Japone chilis, Vidalia onion and some garlic cloves. Thassit! Finished with heavy duty distilled vinegar, salt and a little onion powder and this is my take on what you'd find on every diner table in America, but it's redder! It's hotter! It's not mass produced by the millions! My friends just call me Hank! Medium-hot vinegar ultra utilitarian sauce with extra garlic kick akin to the name I can't say but I'm sure you'll figure it out, introducing a limited stock of:

HANK'S REDDER HOTTER

Super small yield, super delicious. One 5 oz bottle already claimed. $8/$4 while they last. Get at me if ya wanna sauce like a hoss!
*UPDATE - only 2 oz bottles remain.

All sauces fermented, pasteurized, sealed and at a shelf-stable pH.

Big box delivery of vac sealed goodness from my faithful Pepper Dude! Really excited about these two, ARMAGEDDON chilis and SAMAEL YELLOW pods into the contraptions. I didn't cry and have my nose running when packing these, you did!

One more month to go! Just pulled it off the shelf to give it a good ocular pat-down and a trusty sniff test to make sure everything is coming along nicely, and I'm happy to report that it looks and smells delicious. FLORIDA MAN makes its return this April.
