Welcome to Curt’s Heat Hot Sauces

Welcome to Curt’s Heat Hot Sauces

Hello, fellow hot sauce lovers and adventurers!

My name is Shawn Frazier, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to the Curt’s Heat family , where bold flavors meet homegrown freshness. As a husband, father, small business owner, gardener, pastor, and hot sauce enthusiast, I’ve spent over a decade perfecting a sauce that’s not just about heat but about pure rich, robust flavors that enhance every meal.

Lean in as I share The Journey Behind Curt’s Heat

Curt’s Heat Hot Sauces started as a passion project over ten years ago while my family and I were still living in New Jersey. Our love for gardening, cooking, and all things spicy led us to craft a hot sauce that wasn’t just fiery but full of flavor. The challenge? Many store-bought hot sauces were loaded with additives, artificial dyes, and excessive sodium—things we wanted to avoid for the health of our family and friends.

So, I got to work in the kitchen, blending and experimenting with different peppers, spices, and ingredients until I created the perfect balance of heat and flavor. When we relocated to North Carolina, we expanded our garden, allowing us to grow an even wider variety of fresh, high-quality ingredients. What started as a homemade gift for friends and family has now grown into a full-fledged business—one that we’re excited to share with you!

Our Mission: Bold Flavor, Fresh Ingredients

At Curt’s Heat, we believe that great hot sauce starts with great ingredients. That’s why we grow our own peppers and garlic right in our family garden, using sustainable practices that respect the land and our bodies. We also partner with local North Carolina farmers to source any additional high-quality ingredients, ensuring that each bottle captures the authentic taste of our region.

Our mission is simple:

✔️ Craft high-quality, robust, and flavorful hot sauces

✔️ Use sustainably grown, locally sourced ingredients

✔️ Offer a healthier alternative with lower sodium and no unnecessary additives

✔️ Bring a piece of North Carolina’s bold flavors to the world

It was a pleasure to meet you today, and I’ve already been enjoying the medium hot Hab sauce I purchased today at the Smithfield event. Thank you for spending time with me, and while I’ll always miss New Mexico, I’ll enjoy your sauces to help ease the pain :-)
