You probably know that fantastic Fifi and Gwen, owners of Brooklyn’s own Crabby Shack since 2014, by their fan-favorite Zesty Lemon Pepper hot sauce - but the duo is back with a sauce that is undeniably meant for a seafood feast! The Original Hottie (which was their first saucy creation, in fact) relies on cayenne pepper for its kick. It's strongly driven by seasonings like paprika, garlic, celery, and bay leaf, giving it that herbal depth and zesty flare that is synonymous with finger-licking summer meals of crabs, shrimp, potatoes and corn. But don’t box yourself in! Splash this on eggs, veggies and chicken for the delicious flavor Fifi and Gwen are famous for.

Adam T. ★★★★★

Poured it over some fried shrimp last night and the heat builds slow but steady—exactly what you want from something made by folks who clearly know seafood. That lemon pepper base carries through without drowning the vinegar tang, and the bottle’s got a nice pour that doesn't glug all over my plate.

Claire ★★★★★

Opened this expecting just another fruity vinegar sauce after the lemon pepper one, but the heat builds in a way that actually lingers on the back of the tongue. Put a solid splash on my fried shrimp and the zesty citrus cut right through the grease without overpowering the seafood.

Aurora ★★★★★

I grabbed a bottle after loving their lemon pepper version and this one’s just as bold. The heat level is perfect for a weeknight stir-fry and the pepper note stays bright without overpowering the dish.
