Last night my family and I were lucky enough to sample The Cure for Boring Food™ ! We smeared our Costco rotisserie chicken in mounds of Spicy Slatherin’ Sauce from Slather Brand Foods of Charleston, South Carolina. My three kids finished off the entire chicken thanks to this unique finishing sauce that quickly became a family favorite.

Like so many entrepreneurs who enter the Specialty Food Market, the story behind this brand is inspirational. Robin Rhea started Slather Brand Foods with an heirloom family recipe, and the hope to sell her cooking and finishing sauces at Farmer’s Market throughout South Carolina. She deserted her corporate job and quickly discovered that sales are not about numbers, but about building quality relationships. Her grassroots marketing efforts paid off considerably, and her company is now in supermarkets around the country. Robin has now set the goal to make Slather Brand Foods a household name, and I have no doubt that this food entrepreneur will do just that.

I would describe the Spicy Slatherin’ Sauce as sweet and spicy. Our favorite part of the sauce was the texture. It is a unique blend of all natural ketchup, gobs of natural honey, sweet pineapple, crushed red peppers, garlic, and other spices. The ingredients are visible with the naked eye, making this sauce as close to homemade as you can get. It’s important to highlight that all Slatherin’ Sauces are gluten free and contain no high fructose corn syrup, no artificial sweeteners, and no artificial coloring or flavors.

I would recommend the Gift Pack of Slatherin’ Sauces if you know someone who loves to experiment with different types of cooking sauces. You choose any three Slatherin’ Sauces which are packaged in a charming gift box and shipped anywhere in the United States. You also choose your color of paper shreds for the full gift-giving effect! For less than $30, you can rest assured that you are shipping a high quality food gift that will be appreciated by many.
