United States of Hot Sauce

United States of Hot Sauce
50 States of Hot Sauce (missing 3)

For the upcoming Chile Pepper Magazine Hot Sauce issue, they will be profiling a hot sauce manufacturer from each of the 50 states. But they’re missing 3 states: NV, UT & MN – if you know of a manufacturer in any or all of those states, email it to editor@chilepepper.com.

The first person who emails editor@chilepepper.com with info on a manufacturer in NV, UT or MN (sauce needs to be available via web or mail across the US) will get a thank-you sauce gift pack from Chile Pepper Magazine. (In other words, they’ll send out one gift pack for each of the three states).

Send in your email by November 15.

Let’s show them what the HSB knows about hot sauce!

    Those canadians, always getting left out of everything ๐Ÿ™‚

    Maybe we can convince them to add in our Canadian chileheads with enough interest.

    What other Canadian manufacturers frequent the HSB?

    Leroy shoot me a email.

    Rule #2 –
    Email addresses: Posting of email addresses is frowned upon. Not because I donรขโ‚ฌโ„ขt want you guys talking amongst yourselves, but because I donรขโ‚ฌโ„ขt want the poachers and spammers having a one-stop location for chilehead email addresses. This blog is read by folks who donรขโ‚ฌโ„ขt participate and simply use it as a tool to solicit loyal HSBers. Iรขโ‚ฌโ„ขve even been approached for the entire email list of HSB commenters. Iรขโ‚ฌโ„ขm trying to figure out something like an HSB approved communications list, but until then please send me an email when you want the email of another commenter and Iรขโ‚ฌโ„ขll send you both an email with each others information. But for now, email addresses will be deleted if posted (same with phone numbers). Continuing to post your email address will really annoy me and cause your comments to be held in moderation.
