6.  Southern Pepper Sauce

In my research, I found a ton of recipes for southern pepper sauce.  Why?  Because the sauce is so easy to make.  It’s a bottle of whole chili peppers topped with hot vinegar.  Then the whole concoction is put up and let sit for a while.

In the south this pepper sauce is used on everything from BBQ, Greens, Salads, and rice and beans.  I’ve even heard of people putting dashes of this pepper sauce on cornbread too!

I’ve added a few extra ingredients to make this southern pepper sauce my own.  Also, I highly recommend using white wine vinegar instead of distilled vinegar… the taste is very different.

Southern Pepper Sauce Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Small Whole Peppers, Jalapeno, serrano or Thai Chili (To make this vinegar hotter, slice open the peppers!)
  • 5 Garlic Cloves whole
  • 1 Teaspoon Sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon Whole Black Peppercorns
  • 2 Cups White Wine Vinegar

Southern Pepper Sauce Directions

  • Pack the Peppers, Garlic and peppercorns into a glass bottle.
  • Bring the Vinegar and sugar to a simmer then pour into the bottle.
  • Because of the vinegar, this pepper sauce will keep almost forever.
