Looking threw the Market Place here, I do not see a lot of people listing their products. Have met a few folk who have gone full commercial. PexPeppers has his own commercial kitchen. I think Lucky Dog uses a copacker. Both fine for commercial sales. Wondering how many more there are here at THP.
commercial-kichen Are you full Commercial? Copack or Commercial Kitchen?

We're sorry, I seemed to have spilled hot sauce on your cottage pountine fries.

Part time gig for me at the moment.
Used a big co-packer in the beginning, but financially it strapped me.
Found an excellent co-packer who does small batches for me now, which allows me more financial freedom and the ability to endulge in more varieties of flavors without too much risk.
I am gonna share a commercial local kitchen with a hot sauce peer near me for a few real small projects I am interested in exploring.
Don't see me doing that too often at this stage of the game though...

In this thread? Where? And who messed with AJ?!!!! I love AJ! Thought he left because he was severely depressed after a divorce, which he publicly stated. Why are you trying to bring drama here?
Take a lighthearted joke man. Everyone answered professionally I think the OP would agree!
Looks to me like Ann & I answered him respectfully - who's piling on? Wtf?neoguy said:
It's not just thread, it seems that whatever thread he starts goes to sh$$t. I'm not saying Lucky Dog or SalsaLady said anything out of line, you guys are always great with the info, actually all the pro sauce makers have offered great info. It's all the other comments.
Well grant really does have a cottage ham. And my pic was a funny based on the funny coincidence that he bought a cottage ham when we were discussing the cottage indusrty. No piling on.
This thread reminds me...I'll have full access to commercial kitchens this year 
Seems to me we were all just piling on each other everyone's having a laugh and a good time. I don't think it was at AJ's expense though. You get enough people together who like to laugh and stuff like this is going to happen. 
Like I always say.........................

Do they realize what they are letting into their kitchens? Have you disclosed the facility will be contaminated with toxic fumes and powders from all those superhots?JoynersHotPeppers said:This thread reminds me...I'll have full access to commercial kitchens this year

Seriously, though...that's cool! Will you be expanding the product line with sauces and such?
