Puckerbutt Pepper Company is the world-renowned hot sauce and pepper breeding operation founded by the fiery “mad scientist,” Smokin’ Ed Currie. Based in Fort Mill, South Carolina, Puckerbutt is the birthplace of extreme heat, most famously the former Guinness World Record holder, the Carolina Reaper®, and its scorching successor, Pepper X®. Puckerbutt is a true farm-to-bottle operation. They meticulously grow, harvest, and produce their chili peppers and products using all-natural methods, ensuring peak quality and flavor alongside astonishing heat. Unlike many industrial producers, they control the entire process, from a tiny seed to the final packaged sauce. This hands-on dedication ensures the integrity of their famously potent ingredients. The company offers an extensive, dizzying array of hot sauces, powders, and seasonings, with heat levels designed to thrill—and challenge—even the most dedicated “chili-head.” Their products, including those featured on the popular web show Hot Ones, range from relatively mild options (which are still considerably hotter than most grocery store fare) to nuclear sauces like Reaper Squeezins that are pure, unadulterated fire. Puckerbutt Pepper Company is where agricultural dedication meets a relentless quest for the world’s hottest peppers, making it the undisputed champion of capsaicin-fueled adrenaline. | Puckerbutt Pepper Company is the world-renowned hot sauce and pepper breeding operation founded by the fiery “mad scientist,” Smokin’ Ed Currie.
