Palo Alto Firefighters Original Pepper Sauce is a mild, zesty pepper sauce with a short ingredient list: red jalapeños, water, vinegar, sugar, paprika and spice, made into a full-flavored sauce that stands on its own or plays well with other foods.

Shake it on eggs, wings and tacos. Palo Alto Firefighters Pepper Sauce began with the peppers firefighter Lee Taylor grew behind his Palo Alto fire station from 1994; every cent of the proceeds goes to charity, including college scholarships, and Lee’s son Erik now runs it.

About the maker

Palo Alto Firefighters

A pepper sauce with a mission: made by Palo Alto firefighters, with every cent of the proceeds going to charity.

Firefighter Lee Taylor began growing peppers behind the fire station in 1994 and cooking sauce for friends. In 2005 his colleagues started selling it to fund scholarships, and the Palo Alto Firefighters Charitable Fund has since awarded more than 180 of them. Choose the Original, XX Habanero or XXX Ghost Pepper.
