Meet Your New Kitchen Obsession

Dirty Blonde Sweet and Sticky Hot Sauce is the brainchild of culinary master Ric Orlando, a two-time Chopped champion who has spent 30 years celebrating global flavors. This isn't just another hot sauce—it's a flavor revolution that's taking kitchens by storm across the nation.

A Symphony of Sweet, Sticky, and Spicy

Picture this: pure honey forms the foundation, brightened by a tropical medley of pineapple, orange, and grapefruit juices. Red habaneros bring the perfect kick while cider vinegar, onions, black pepper, and turmeric create layers of complexity that dance on your palate. The result? An addictive sauce that delivers a RIC-TER scale *8 heat level with a sophisticated sweetness that keeps you coming back for more.

One Sauce, Endless Possibilities

Dirty Blonde refuses to be confined to a single role. Drizzle it over tacos like any traditional hot sauce, baste shrimp, pork, chicken, or tofu on the grill for caramelized perfection, or toss your wings and cauliflower wings for an unforgettable coating. Think of it as the adult version of sweet chili sauce—try it on fried chicken, chicken and waffles, or even pierogi for a flavor experience that'll have your guests begging for the secret.
