Hey Joe is a six pepper sauce containing Red Cubanelle, Poblano, Jalapeno, Arbol, Pequin and Mini Sweet Peppers. Also with Smoked Paprika, Pink Sea Salt, Raw Buckwheat Honey, Aloe Juice and non pasteurized Apple Cider Vinegar. This sauce has notably fewer ingredients but, the process is quite lengthy. After the 10 day fermentation in a Star San sterilized glass fermenter, I filter the mash with a fine mesh strainer. I then dehydrate the filtered mash in my food dehydrator. After the dehydration I grind up the dried mash with my coffee grinder. I sift the powder through a fine mesh strainer then add some of the ground powder back into the liquid. I then add some of my home made liquid smoke I make with various wood chips my electric smoker.

I was listening to my album while making this! You can actually purchase the Jimi Hendrix Are You Experienced Album on Amazon as well as in MP3 or CD formats too. Streaming version also available there.
