Ghost peppers carry a surprising depth of flavor: floral, earthy, and cocoa notes good enough to earn the burn. Each bottle of Red Ghost Squash holds roughly a dozen of them, making this the hottest sauce in the lineup. Roasted butternut squash rounds out this simple recipe with just enough earthy sweetness to let ghost pepper star. A little goes a long way.

Real Flavor That Makes Food Taste Better

🔥 Flavor Over Fire
We craft sauce that tastes great first. The burn is secondary.

🌶️ Ingredient Obsession
Every ingredient that goes into our sauce has to be natural, taste great, and make food better. If it doesn't meet that criteria, it doesn't end up in the bottle.

❤️ Handcrafted with Care
Slow-cooked sauce in small batches just tastes better. Every roasted, smoked, blanched, destemmed, peeled, chopped and crushed ingredient is a labor of love—taking something natural and raw, and transforming it into something you'll reach for day in and day out.

Frequently asked questions

Why does this only ship to Oklahoma?
It's one of our small-batch sauces made under Oklahoma's homemade food law, which limits sales to Oklahoma addresses. Mexican Peppers & Coffee and Green Jalapeño Cilantro ship anywhere in the US.
