When cold weather shows up, you have two choices: bundle up the grill and stop barbecuing, or man up, bundle yourself up, and don’t let some silly blizzard and subzero weather stand between you and the perfect rack of ribs. Here’s some great advice from Fiery Foods Central on how to make that happen when the ice gods forbid it.
Hot Sauce Sales Hit New High
Earlier this week, we talked about how hot sauce has hit the mainstream market with great vengeance and furious anger, with over 50% of American homes having one flavor or another of it on hand. Statista, the Statistics Portal, says that “hot sauce sales are the eighth-fastest growing industry in the U.S. Sales were $1.07 billion in 2012 and are projected to be $1.32 billion in 2017.”
Hot Sauce is Hot Commodity
You know you’re mainstream when McDonald’s and Burger King put you on a burger. Chiles have made their way into fast food sandwiches all over the country; Wendy’s even has a ghost pepper burger (granted, it’s not that hot, but still). The NPD Group is a global info company that tracks this sort of thing. According to them, fifty-six percent of America’s households keep spicy heat on hand.

Here’s some of the latest news and items from the world of chiles, smoke, and fire.
