Are you a fan of hot sauce? Because we're about to make your day. Pepper Palace is a hot sauce shop that has made its home in multiple cities across the nation, but their corporate headquarters is right here in Tennessee - so we decided to do some digging. Why hot sauce? Do people REALLY like it that much?
Pepper Palace isn't called 'The Planet's #1 Hot Shop' for nothin'! The company vibe encourages a fun - AND fiery - environment for employees and visitors alike. After all, we should enjoy our Spice Life, shouldn't we?
The company was actually born in Wisconsin, and moved down south to Tennessee eight years after its inception. Its first new location in the southern region of the US was in Gatlinburg, where it eventually moved to the Gatlinburg mall.
Since its humble beginnings, Pepper Palace has expanded to over 30 locations in the United States - and they remain the one hot sauce shop that Tennessee boasts on its own.
All of their hot sauces are handcrafted, and and made in small batches. It ensures that you get the best hot sauce available, every single time.
Their ingredients are fresh, and their store in Gatlinburg is probably the best place to visit if you call The Volunteer State your home. Everything is made with fresh jalapeños and citrus!
There are multiple locations across the US, but we'd recommend you visit their shop located at 611 Parkway, Suite D10. See you in Gatlingurg!
PS: This is PROBABLY one of the best spots to visit if you're looking for southern cuisine in Tennessee.
