Palo Alto Firefighters Pepper Sauce
Yum! I’m not usually much for hot sauce, but this is a winner.
My husband calls the Palo Alto Firefighters Pepper Sauce “cowboy syrup,” and and puts it on everything. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him using it as an ice cream topping.
The sauce is savory with just a tiny bit of kick, and it’s excellent with barbecue or breakfast dishes like eggs or fried potatoes. Try it, and see if you don’t order a few more bottles.
