ChilliBOM Red Box Autumn 2020
The All-Rounder Edition
In this edition we feature three hot sauces that can best described as great all-rounders – hot sauces made to be used anywhere and everywhere. We start with the amazing Secret Aardvark hot sauce from Portland where ChilliBOM is proud to now be the official Australian distributor of the brand. We then have the mouth-watering Basketcase Gourmet Firestarter from Melbourne made using seven different kinds of chilli and then there is the small batch rich-tomato Brisbane heat bomb that is Jose Montezuma. These are made to be used anywhere and everywhere so happy pouring!

[REVIEW] Basketcase Gourmet Firestarter Hot Sauce
If you just go off the ingredient list you would be mistaken in thinking that this is a simply made hot sauce but there in lies its beauty and the inherent cleverness in its creator Kate. Basketcase Gourmet Firestarter is blend of 7 different chillies so your whole mouth is hit at once with a moreish chilli heat.

ChilliBOM Red Box Spring 2019
We had to physically break out of the box for this edition of the ChilliBOM Red Box! Mark from The Chilli Effect has been a long-time friend of ChilliBOM, and we have been wanting to feature this sauce for a while now, but it just wouldn’t fit no matter how hard we tried, so while Mark and I were wracking our brains over a beer (or two) to work out how to make this work, Mark came up with the great idea of just sending it outside the box…genius…and the ‘Out of the Box’ edition was born.

[REVIEW] Orcona Fire in the Hole
I love trying hot sauce when travel and I discovered Orcona sauces while I was in NZ in 2018 in a corner store in the town of Whitford. After trying the sauces, I immediately got in contact with Tricia and Alvin about how we could get them onto the ChilliBOM store and into the Red Box.

ChilliBOM Winter 2019 Red Box
The ‘Dimension’ edition Red Box features 3 hot sauces across the taste spectrum – savoury, smoky, sweet(ish) and all with a good dose of heat! We have an example of a sauce that uses a few simple ingredients to create layers of flavour to another that uses an abundance of ingredients to create a sauce with an intense depth of flavour and lastly a sauce that use a whole different “cooking” process to create dimension and complexity.

[REVIEW] Agent 80 Hot Sauce
Agent 80 Hot Sauce has been created by Jason, an ex-bartender who has blended chilli, lime and vinegar in a magnificent way, and managed to take a traditional hot sauce blend and deliver something completely different. We recently met in Perth were he described to me his vision for all natural products and ingredients and gave me a sneak peek of an upcoming new project he is working on...very tasty!

ChilliBOM Spring 2018 Red Box
The Whippersnapper Edition
This quarter ChilliBOM went on the hunt to unearth some BRAND NEW Aussie-made hot sauces and we found some stunners, we have featured 2 here and they are both less than a year old! We then got duly Smacked in the Arse by a 17-year hot sauce veteran who told us to pull our heads in and reminded us that the hot sauce culture in Australia has been alive and well for a long time.
