A lot of questions have been swirling around about the Hot Sauce Book. Like most projects, there have been some delays but it’s most certainly still an open project and is now projecting to be completed by February 2008. And the good news is that they are now opening up the window for item submissions – so take this oppurtunity to download the form (PDF) and send your products in!
Dear Hot Sauce Maker,
Mud Puddle Books Inc. will be publishing a Guide to Hot Sauces. We are in the process of collecting information on hot sauce manufacturers and the hot sauces they make. We would like to include you and your products in our book.
The book will be an alphabetical list of hot sauce manufactures. We will include a description of each company followed by a photo of each hot sauce that is currently being produced and a short description of each sauce. We would like to use your description of your company and hot sauces.
Please print the downloadable form (PDF), fill it out and return it to us by fax (at 206-202-8206) or regular mail. Also email us with information about your company and your hot sauces. Or, let us know if all that info is on a website that we can use.
Samples of each hot sauce that you would like to be included in the book would be very helpful. We are going to photograph each bottle in order to give the book a uniform look.
If you have any questions about the book or our company please feel free to contact Greg Boehm at greg@mudpuddlebooks.com or (212) 647-9168 ext 1#.
We cannot guarantee that every hot sauce will make it into the book. However, we are trying to include everything.
Sincerely,
The Staff at Mud Puddle Books

Ummm…yeah I am doing a hot sauce book too. Except in my case I need a case of each sauce because that makes for a better picture. I might have to do additional takes and what not, so two cases would actually work better. I am not in hurry though, because I am writing my book first with a pencil and a spiral notebook for better editing. So if you want in “Buddah’s Book of Hot Stuff” you best be sending me some free goodies. 😀
hey buddah, when we send you the 2 cases, should we wrap the bottles in cash instead of bubble wrap? or do you take checks? i really want to make it into your first edition. how much for a centerfold spread?
I’m sorry Jon, I can not be bought. There will be no hot sauce centerfold to fight over anyway. That spot is reserved for the new Toyota Habanero XL450 due out on press day. Just a coincendence though.

Buddah, you’re such a knob.
Thanks for making me smile.
I always wondered if this was legit. There’s some heavy hitters listed already so I guess it is. Good thing they have room for more. Need to get listed, we are a Golden Chile winner after all. 😉

Seriously, my wife just packed a box full of sauce to send to these guys. Is this legit?
Um Brian, I don’t see any Loco Lona here!!

No fears there Sam, Nick has assured us this is legit. Here is the link to the orginal post about the book: https://www.hotsauceblog.com/hotsaucearchives/the-hot-sauce-book-get-listed/
If it helps, we picked this book and the publisher apart prior to sending our sauces in.
Whether or not your sauces will show up in the book or not, remains to be seen, but it’s a legitimate publisher and it is a legitimate book.
Wonder when it will go to print? Yeah, me too.
