LW50 - 2025
IN SHORT…
LW50, which we named after Tim’s friend James, is our peach flavored jerk sauce. Think of it as a trip to Jamaica with a quick layover in Atlanta
Food Pairings: bridging the gap between a Georgia barbecue and a Jamaican roadside stand, this sauce shines as a glaze for thick-cut pork chops or slow-smoked ribs. It also brings a bright, fruity heat to grilled shrimp or a simple bowl of rice and peas..
This sauce was low-temperature pasteurized and preserved with potassium sorbate (to prevent re-fermentation or mold growth) calcium disodium EDTA (to maintain color and inhibit rancidity) and ascorbic acid (to prevent oxidation). While technically shelf stable, we would strongly recommend keeping it refrigerated to help preserve its flavor.
Common Allergens: Onion/Garlic
This sauce is vegan.

The overwhelming majority of the peppers were grown on our very own “Hot Sauce Farms,” our waggish name for Tim’s back patio garden in Baltimore County, Maryland.
Moon Valley Farm in Woodsboro, Maryland provided all of the Caribe peppers and a handful of the Ají Limóns too.
King's Produce in Montross, Virginia provided some of the yellow carrots and Sungold tomatoes with Reid's Orchardin Gettysburg, Pennsylvania providing the rest of the Sungolds, and Franklin Sustainable Farms in Franklin County. Pennsylvania providing the rest of the carrots.
The Central PA Produce Co-Op - a cooperative of organic Amish farmers - grew the Badger Flame Beets and scallions.
Finally, Penn Farm/Norma's Produce in Colonial Beach, Virginia grew the incredible peaches that play such an important role in this sauce.
