Elijah's Xtreme Gourmet Sauces

It all began one summer day when six year old Elijah came to hisfather in the garden and said, “Dad, what do I need to do to be the youngest person to eat the worlds hottest pepper?” At that his father gave him a hot banana pepper and said, “start here.” It was that first bite that sent Elijah running for water and began his passion, along with his father, for hot peppers and hot sauces. A few years later, after trying many different hot sauces, Elijah asked his father, if they could make their own better tasting, hotter, hot sauce. It took the two more than three years of trial and error to finally get their handcrafted recipe just right. Late in the summer of 2013, Elijah and his father perfected their ghost pepper sauce, it was the perfect balance flavor and heat. The two sent out over 100 samples and the feedback was great... everyone loved it, saying the same thing... “It’s hot, but has great flavor”! With that, his father named their creation, Elijah’s Xtreme! Elijah’s Xtreme® was born from a father and son’s love of hot peppers and passion to create a more flavorful, thicker, hotter, hot sauce. Elijah’s Xtreme Ghost Pepper Sauce officially launched in June of 2014! By August the father and son team had landed their first account - Bass Pro Shops nationwide, where their sauces have been a top sellers ever since! It was that same summer when Elijah, then 16, met Smokin’ Ed Currie at PuckerButt Pepper Company in Fort Mill, SC and ate “Smokin’ Ed’s Carolina Reaper®” the World’s Hottest Pepper meeting his goal of eating the hottest pepper in the world!
