Like many great products, Joey’s Hot Sauce originated from love. In this case, the love Joey felt for his wife, who couldn’t find a delicious hot sauce free from additives, preservatives, and sugar. So Joey grabbed organic peppers from the farmer’s market and blended up a custom hot sauce in his Vitamix. On that day, Joey’s Hot Sauce was born. 

From the Southern part of Italy, Joey’s mother lived off the land. Her family owned goats and ate fresh figs and oregano straight from the source. As a child, Joey watched his mother’s intentional approach to cooking, making use of every ingredient and treating meals with reverence. Those Italian roots and his mother’s appreciation for high-quality food inspired Joey’s love for fresh, simple ingredients, and eventually, Joey’s Hot Sauce. 

In this episode, Joey talks with Jen about the inspiration behind his hot sauce flavors, why every flavor is fresh, clean, and simple, the importance of mind-body health for Joey, and why Joey’s Hot Sauce is so much more than a hot sauce.
