Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Larry Crockett. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Larry, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. What did your parents do right and how has that impacted you in your life and career?

Being the youngest of three my siblings weren’t all that thrilled to have me around. So for my own safety and protection my mom kept me in the kitchen with her. So I was learning to wash. clean, cook, and sew to be self sufficient. In the meantime I watched my dad doctor up the only sauce that was available. he and the other dads on the block each had heir own secret recipe. Unfortunately my father passed when I was 17 years old, as a rite of passage I took over the grill and utilized the skills I learned from both to begin my saucy journey

Awesome – so before we get into the rest of our questions, can you briefly introduce yourself to our readers.

I got started in the business after because a close friend suggested that I bottle the sauce after tasting it for a holiday dinner. The thought never crossed my mind even after making the sauce for years. Currently we have four flavors of goodness; Original, Sweet & Smokey, Asian, and Southwest Chipotle Kick.

We are in the process of creating our signature hot sauce, as well as our line of premium seasonings and spices. There is also a consideration for a premium coffee being added to our product line.

Our products are differentiated by our organic ingredients as well as the ingredients that we do not have in our products. we are Gluten Free, Non GMO, No High Fructose Corn Syrup, and only use Organic Ingredients. we are the healthier brand on the market. We are truly concerned with health of the community as we want be of assistance making healthier choices. We want to hep you be a healthier you.

How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?

As a business owner, you quickly learn to pivot, not over time but on any frequently, at times even daily. Being able to pivot keeps us open and available for opportunities that arise. When we come to realize we have to be flexible to get ahead in all aspects. pivoting is a part of life, when you can make decisions based on the need or the moment.

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?

One word COVID. We all had to choose to either be or stay resilient, or learn how to be in the midst of uncertainty. We came to market in 2018, we we all know what happened in 2019. We learned.
