Elijah’s Xtreme Ghost Pepper Sauce

Elijah’s Xtreme Ghost Pepper Sauce

It is always a pleasure to write about a product that I love so much. Elijah’s Xtreme Ghost Pepper Sauce is one I truly love. Based in Gastonia, NC Elijah’s Xtreme is a father and son business with over 10 years in the making, and have perfected their sauce and is highly recommended by me. Elijah’s Xtreme Ghost Pepper Sauce is a welcome vendor to the 2016 NYC Hot Sauce Expo.

Elijah's Xtreme with Shrimp, Clams and Rice

Elijah’s Xtreme has a pleasant aroma from ingredients Naga Jolokia (Ghost peppers) and the Habanero peppers. In this wonderfully “HOT” sauce is the accompanying tomatoes, vinegar (just a bit), roasted garlic, garlic powder, carrots, Lime Juice, onion powder and passion fruit juice. The sauce advertised as “Xtreme” has the heat and burn Chili-heads will love. The extreme heat of the Naga Jolokias and Habaneros combined leaves you with a lingering and tingling burn that is very hot, yet not overpowering.

When combined with foods in cooking or as a condiment Elijah’s Xtreme is just right. It is not for the heat intolerant yet I can recommend it as a getaway extreme super hot sauce for beginners seeking more heat in their sauce. This would be a great introduction to the world of extreme super hot hot sauces. Elijah’s Xtreme Ghost Pepper Sauce is already an award winning (five or more) awards at some very big and prestigious competitions. Last year on Facebook, I won a case of Elijah’s Xtreme and was able to share some with friends and family. The feedback was A+ from all the people I shared my sauce with. In California, I hand delivered a bottle to my good friend who used it on his BBQ grill with meats and his smoker too.

I gave a bottle to my nephew who is a big ghost pepper fan and the sauce made its way to PA with him to share with his friends in college. Again, I got A+ feedback. I sent a bottle to my cousins in Oklahoma and they used it to elevate the heat level in their BBQ and cooking. To give it an even bigger test, I gave a bottle to my Moroccan friend and his wife and they both loved the heat and thickness as I do.

This thicker sauce is really tasty as well as hot. The tomato and carrot base along with the high pepper ratio is a great accompaniment to add droplets on your foods. Elijah’s Xtreme does not have a vinegar flavor like some Southern hot sauces just an amazing pepper and vegetable flavor.
