I'm headed up to Canada in a couple of weeks for a meeting with my team and several of us are bringing hot sauces from our neck of the woods to share with each other. It doesn't necessarily have to be a local one but it'd be cool if it was. I was going to bring Marie Sharps as that is my favorite, but it is from Belize, not RVA... I found this one but I've never heard of "Jimmy's Restaurant". Anything else?
Came here to boost KimKim. It's like the best ever more umami Sriracha. Tan A sells it. It's not hot hot but it's great.
If you can get your hands on a bottle of Uncle June's, you're in for a treat. Not a hot sauce, but a damn good sauce.
Sweet thanks!!
kim kim is delicious but is no longer local
Nooooo…you are breaking my heart! Where are they making it now?
not sure but the original owner/creator was the husband of a former coworker of mrs. nerdface. sold the product to somewhere a few years back.
Well, boo. I’m going to have to do a little research on this to find out where they ended up.
I think the place that was doing the bottling for him may have bought him out, but not sure. They are based out of VA Beach. Ashman Manufacturing Company. They have a number of self-branded products.

(edit - and yes, that is some great sauce.)
Rana’s
Rana’s for sure. Grab it at KubaKuba.

Kuba Kuba/Kuba Kuba Dos serve a delicious house made hot sauce that I think gets sold at a different bodega. I ask every time I have it where can I buy a bottle but I never remember the name of the market where it's sold.
You can buy it at the restaurant but I think cash only. Rana is a person and works as a server at the Fan location
That's a great hot sauce
I was just there this weekend and was thinking that they need to bottle that stuff
Right on, thanks!
>Right on, thanks!
You're welcome!

It's so good
Clark & Hopkins (also featured on Hot Ones): https://clarkandhopkins.com/
This stuff is really good and its not all just straight heat but interesting flavors as well. Really enjoyed the several I've bought.
Assam is so good. I always have it in my fridge.
Awesome thank you!

omg they serve this stuff at Zorch Pizza on Cary St and its absolutely flame. So good on pizza, dont knock it til you try it
This is what I was going to suggest!
Besides, Ames is a good guy ;)
The fact that this post has received some downvotes is so Richmond. Love you guys. Keep on keeping on.
Wild Earth Fermentation has great sauces. Also seconding En Su Boca's and Clark+Hopkins.
Awesome thanks!
Little House Green Grocery has the Manakintowne hot sauces.
sweet thanks!
Soss is based out of Charlottesville. Lots of great flavors with plenty of heat. I think they sell bottles at Union Market and Outpost
En Su Boca bottles and sells a pretty good a green sauce - i think it's called Hella-peño if I'm not mistaken
Sweet thank you!

Oh, now this right here is my go to when it comes to cooking chicken for sure, but I wouldn’t consider it a hot sauce.
Just found Del Sauce right after I posted this..

​
Anyone ever tried them before?
I haven’t had Del sauce before but Jimmys used to be a great lunch spot in Lexington commons at Westerre Parkway and Broad. They had the deathwish sauce lined up on a shelf that went all the way around the restaurant so you could walk up and grab one off the wall when your meal came out. Sadly, they closed years ago but the sauce is still around. I don’t think they were associated with each other but someone else might be able to fill it in.
Cool thanks for the back story!
Yes! Delsauce for the win! Gonjoe and Elizabeth are fantastic people
Also, The Tiny Acre in Lakeside has a Fire Roasted Hot Pepper sauce at the Lakeside Farmer’s market
Awesome thanks!
I like to bring AR’s hot honey. Not a sauce technically but still appreciated by spicy fans. They also have a peach habanero sauce that slaps.
Nice. I like hot honeys so I'm definitely going to try this out!
​
I'm so glad I asked, there are so many Richmond and Va based hot sauces I had no idea about!!
You can buy Peter Chang’s garlic sauce at the Scott’s Addition locale, and it’s delicious
Good to know I’ll check it out!

Josh's Jungle Carolina Reaper Salt is really good. I think it's more versatile than an actual hot sauce. Like, sprinkling some on some steamed vegetables. I guess you can put hot sauce all over it, but the Reaper Salt works well to compliment the natural flavors vs. overpowering them.
Nice thanks for the suggestion!
Wish Perly's bottled their green Sriracha.
Mmmm that’d be good!
Call them and ask. You might be surprised, I bet they’ll ‘sell’ you a to-go portion of a decent size.
Guther Gourmet salsas are all local to Virginia and their creator lives and works in Richmond. My favorite is
PINEAPPLE ORANGE WITH MANGO HOT SAUCE
But his salsa is just awesome! don't sleep on:
CHESAPEAKE BAY CRAB SALSA
and the
FIERY PERI-PERI DARK CHERRY SALSA
Right on, thanks!

*also some other local creations on this page
Oh cool thanks a bunch!
Yes and it’s mayonnaise
How much hate am I going to get when I admit I'm a Hellman's guy? I'm born and raised Richmond, just never been into Dukes. Too sweet for me.
Well, I won’t downvote you, because you didn’t say Miracle Whip.
You're damn right I didn't say Miracle Whip.

This is only margianlly related (sorry to hijack) but does anybody know if you can buy "That Hot Sauce" anywhere? The one that they have in Chioccas? I loved that stuff but could never figure out if it was ever sold anywhere.
I'm from Richmond and I make hot sauce (not commercially)... If that's what you're looking for I can give you some.
galley has an awesome carrot habanero sauce they sell

I’m in RVA and make my own hot sauce, if you want a bottle or two just DM me.
