Joe Paul began developing his pepper sauce in 2008, and has been in the selling market since 2011. He and his wife, Kay, proudly sell their hot sauce in many locations in more that 50 states. You can find him at local markets and festivals with his trademark trailer, which is filled with his smack-you-in-the-taste-bud sauces, Two flavors of BBQ Sauce, Bloody Mary, and Rimmer. Papi's famous sweet burning pepper sauce has proven to be extremely popular, prompting Joe to purchase his trademark yellow bracelets with the saucy warning: Caution... May Be Addictive!™ Papi Joe prides himself on being family owned and operated--no other way would do for this fire-startin' family man.

Papi's Place
Our country kitchen is located in an amazing 100 year old building in the historic sections of Rossville, Tennessee. At 505 Main street you can find my fully equipped commercial kitchen inside this building which was originally a general store. I am excited to open the doors to this amazing old building and go to work. I bring new life to it and it brings new life to me as I cook my sauces! If you are in the area and someone's inside...Come on in...my doors are always open and...Get Sauced!
