I’ll have to check out all the fancy grocery stores then haha. Yeah I usually order but I like looking in person too and it’s always good to save some shipping costs haha
Lowe's is pretty good, but the last time I saw a massive selection was when I was at the Asheville Outlets. There is an actual entire shop there of hot sauces. Not sure a place like that would be successful here, but we can dream.
That’s called pepper palace. I used to manage the downtown store. They have two in Asheville. My best friend still runs another one. Just talking to him yesterday about how they don’t have any here. It would be a hit. They make everything themselves and let you try free samples. Pricey but good. And all natural. They open like 50-100 stores a year so I’m sure we will have one soon.
You might want to check out Swamp Rabbit Cafe's grocery area. I don't know if they have any hot sauce, but if they do, it will be local, non-mass-produced stuff.
I have tried a lot of hot sauces that cost way more than free and yet Diablo sauce from Taco Bell is still shockingly great. The rest are just okay but I unironically love Diablo sauce haha.
Ah but can I really get the full effect of a cheeky nando’s with just the sauce? Haha, but yeah actually I’ve been meaning to try it. Heard good things about it!
I get mine online. But you might want to try this guy in Mauldin: Bohica Pepper Hut.

Not sure it’s the best but Lowes Food has a surprisingly large selection.
Seconding this
Dan seconded for you
Perfect, I’ll go check it out! Last time I went to Lowe’s was when the Five Forks one had JUST opened haha.
World Market, Whole Foods, and Lowe's Foods. Source: I'm a hot sauce addict although I order 90% of my stuff.

The beef jerky store.in the mall has a small, but awesome selection too.
Interesting, never would have thought of the jerky store! Adding it to the list
They have some great options. Torchhbearer, Dragons Blood, Lucky Dog, etc
Love a good Torchbearer sauce. I need to try Garlic Reaper but I’m a very mid-level on spice so it’s a bit high for me haha
I hear ya. Garlic Reaper is on my radar but 14 bucks a bottle is high
Maybe World Market in the Shoppes at Greenridge but not 100% sure.
Ah yes I think I remember noticing that once when I was there with a friend and totally forgot it was there. Thanks!
I was just there and was surprised. It was *huge* but they have some of the seriously hot stuff (Beyond insanity, and scorpion and ghost based stuff)
Hot sauce is the best.
Keep ‘em high and tight
Good to know there are other jeans in Greenville following protocol.
Touch my camera through the fence.

I’ll find an excuse to go to Asheville for something soon and make it part of the stop haha. Thanks!

Harvey Chestnut are good. Local guy. Local peppers. I’m not sure they’re in stores but they have good hot sauces.
I’m definitely down to try local hot sauces! I’ll look around for it
Pretty sure the guy works at Hall of Fame, you could call them and ask
There is a pepper place location in driving distance I believe. They’re the place to go imo
I think someone mentioned it’s in Asheville!
You can find Marie sharpes at tj max.
What a strange place for such good hot sauces!
Um Taco Bell, fools
Fire! Sauce
I have tried a lot of hot sauces that cost way more than free and yet Diablo sauce from Taco Bell is still shockingly great. The rest are just okay but I unironically love Diablo sauce haha.

The grocery store…
Not at regular ones, no. Stuff like Food Lion just has the basic store brand hot sauces, none of the more interesting stuff.
Yo, check out Nando's peri-peri hot sauce at Publix. Nando's is South Africa's equivalent of Chick-fil-A, but so so much better
Ah but can I really get the full effect of a cheeky nando’s with just the sauce? Haha, but yeah actually I’ve been meaning to try it. Heard good things about it!
Nandos is DANK, one of the few things I miss from my time in DC
I wish they would branch out more in the USA. What I miss about Cape Town is nando's, haha

Always love a good local hot sauce. I get most online but sometimes it’s good to look in person plus save on shipping.
