Angry Irishman® hot sauce is, well, the life dream of creator, President and CEO, Kevin Mackey
When this all started out, He was looking for a way to fill my time during the day. His family had just moved from Northwest Ohio to Southwest Florida leaving everything and everyone behind. Kevin took advantage of the sub-tropical climate and started growing hot peppers. The area of Florida was a climate much like a year round greenhouse. The hot temperatures and extreme humidity are perfect for growing hot peppers!
After a few years, a friend challenged Kevin to a salsa making contest – who could make the hottest. This went on for a couple months and when the contest ended, in what they called a “tie”, spicy food had become a passion. Kevin continued to experiment with multiple spice and pepper blends, different base ingredients like; tomatoes, pineapple, plantains, mangos, papayas and star fruit.
As cooking became a strong desire as a possible career choice, He was looking into entering the field of culinary arts, a path that was never taken, but furthered his interest and concentration on creating new hot sauces and salsas.
Then one magical day, a gift from God really, the first batch of Angry Irishman®hot sauce was born! Angry Irishman® was a HUGE hit!
In 1996, Angry Irishman® became a licensed business in Florida.
Through advertising and local exposure, Angry Irishman® has been shipped to many locations throughout the United States, Canada and even Australia!
In 2010, Angry Irishman® moved out of Florida and back to the area where they grew up in Northwest Ohio. With the help and encouragement from the absolute love of his life, Mary Ann, They together resumed making Angry Irishman® in Ohio.

DILL-LICIOUS from TASTING THE HEAT.. After years of trying thousands of hot sauces we felt it was time for us to come out with our own. On our way back from the Chicago Hot Sauce Expo in June of 2018 we shared our idea for a unique flavored sauce with Kevin and MaryAnn Mackey form Angry Irishman. And thats where the idea was born. This Dill Pickle Hot Sauce brings the flavor of Tomatillos, Dill pickles, red Onions, Garlic, lime, vinegar, olive oil and Scorpion peppers together to make a one of a kind flavor everyone can love. The flavor of the scorpion pepper was a perfect choice to mix with the flavor of the dill pickle. The addition of all the other ingredients brings everything to light to make this sauce come alive with a fantastic dill flavor. This is amazing on sandwiches, subs, fish tacos, mixed into mayo for a spicy tar tar, add to creamy soups, hot dogs, sausage, hamburgers, potato salad, deviled eggs or anything a dill pickle would be added to.

FINISHING BBQ SAUCE from ANGRY IRISHMAN.. Have you ever had a BBQ sauce infused with beer? Well here is your chance and its fantastic! Angry Irishman has broken the mold to the traditional barbecue sauce with this one. Tasting the individual flavors of the ingredients in layers is a treat for the scenes . The fresh garlic and onion stand out as you saver this delicious sauce, with just the right amount of tomato, molasses, black pepper and spices. The malt and hops of the Double Wing Lager from Double Wing Brewing Co. is added at just the right amount to make this a one of a kind barbecue sauce that would work wonderful on any food. We were fortunate enough to have this sauce before it went to market at the Angry Irishman headquarters while Kevin and Mary Ann Mackey made smoked ribs and brisket using their Red Aye Rub and the new Finishing BBQ sauce. Talk about an amazing combination! It won't stay in the fridge long, as you will not be shy about using this on everything!

CHIPOTLE SAUCE from ANGRY IRISHMAN.. If your looking for an extremely tasty hot sauce, then you need to try this one. This is a thinner sauce with nice chunks of peppers, tomato and onion. The smoky flavor from the chipotle pepper is a perfect balance with the rest of the flavors, along with the garlic powder. This is a vinegar based sauce and all the flavors blend together so well, it makes this a delight to add to any food. This is not your typical chipotle hot sauce and I have used this on omelets, tacos and fries. You could also mixes this into some EVOO to make a fantastic salad dressing. Amazing!

HOT SAUCE from ANGRY IRISHMAN.. Here is another great tasting hot sauce from the Angry Irishman. This one will hit you with a nice heat and a lingering sting. The habanero flavor comes through right from the start, followed by the vinegar, tomato, garlic, onion and spices. Once again you will find chunks of peppers, onions and garlic in a loose sauce. Each drop will add excitement to some of your favorite food. Great job! This sauce added nice heat and flavor to eggs, hash browns, and I also put this on my grilled steak. Versitile and delicious!

CHIPOTLE PUB MUSTARD from ANGRY IRISHMAN.. I love mustard, so I'm very picky about how a mustard product will taste. Once I tried the Chipole Mustard I knew it was a winner. It's like a cross between a premium yellow mustard and a brown mustard. Then you get the smoky heat from the Angry Irishman's own Chipotle hot sauce and the mixture makes an extremely tasty spicy mustard. Nothing cheap about the flavor at all. The smoky flavor was amazing on our grilled burgers and brats. Just on it own there is a little heat but cooking with it, the heat is barely noticeable. Very good!

HOT PUB MUSTARD from ANGRY IRISHMAN.. Starting out once again like their Chipolte Mustard, you will find a very smooth premium mustard. Then the heat and flavor of the habanero kicks in. The flavors mix so well together. There is a hint of jalapeno and garlic for added flavor but the mane taste you will get with the mustard is habanero. This mustard was also a great addition to our burgers and brats but where I really loved using it was on pretzels. Both of these mustard's can be used as a replacement for any dish that uses mustard in the recipe. Amazing!

GOB WATERIN' RIB from ANGRY IRISHMAN.. As my wife just said "this is my new favorite thing" and I have to agree. This rub has a great flavor coming from the brown sugar, salt, onion powder, garlic powder and spices. It really packs a punch of flavor. Add this to all sides of your meat 30 minutes before cooking. We cooked pork chops in a hot pan with just a light coating of EVOO and the sizzle and aroma was just awesome. We both loved the flavor! This would be just as good on the grill on all your favorite meats, but next, grilled vegetables! Update....It's AMAZING on grilled vegi's!

RED AYE RUB from ANGRY IRISHMAN.. Once again this would be great on any meat, light, dark, wild, or domestic. I am truly loving both of these rubs! I used this on the burgers that we made when we used their mustard's and I'm defiantly going to use this on more then just meat. Vegetables, baked potatoes, mix with butter for corn on the cob, fries or even added to your soups or stews. The addition of coffee mixed with the garlic, salt, onion and brown sugar are terrific! Make sure you buy both!
