~~Redd's Hot & Saucy sauce made its debut in January 2013 and the first case sold out within a week. 

"We have been talking about it for a couple of years and just decided to do it," said Redd

The inspiration for the name came when someone posted on her Facebook page that "Redd is hot and saucy."

Redd's husband, Paul, suggested a hot sauce to match Redd's performance, and after many recipe tests, the formula was finalized.

Made from a base of carrot juice, mixed peppers (a secret combination) and key lime juice (a  Key West  connection), the mixture is 100-percent natural and contains no preservatives or vinegar.

~~Although this is Redd's first foray into food distribution, she said she has always enjoyed experimenting in the kitchen.

"Such as, I always eat guacamole and doctor it and make it my own. And the creation of this sauce goes with the way I cook. When I make salsa, I put jalapeños in it. So, when we saw that post on Facebook, we thought that marketing our own sauce would be a fun thing as I'm not your average entertainer," said Redd, who admits she enjoys keeping them guessing.

 Redd's Hot & Saucy is basically a hot sauce and very versatile, she said, and can be used for items such as oysters.

"It's made with total natural ingredients," said Redd. "Key lime makes it tangy, but not vinegary. I even use it on salad. A dash makes it bright, but not overwhelming."

Redd said even though the sauce was just recently christened, she has been making and working on it for a couple of years, and plans are already cooking for a sweet sauce, a spicy version and a chunky variety.
