Legend has it Blackbeard buried treasure on Topsail Island. We found something better.
In the 1700s, the pirate Blackbeard terrorized the North Carolina coast and used Topsail Island as his hideout. Three centuries later, we're crafting Carolina Flamin' Applesauce on those same rebellious shores—thick, chunky, and loaded with the kind of bold flavor the old pirate would've approved of.
This ain't smooth sauce from a corporate test kitchen. It's real apple chunks meeting real Carolina heat in a thick, spoonable sauce that transforms everything it touches. Brush it on ribs for a caramelized crust. Spoon it over pulled pork for texture and fire. Or just eat it straight as the world's most rebellious side dish.
Sweet apples. Spicy heat. Zero apologies. That's the pirate way.
Taste the Sweet Burn.
Thick, chunky, rebellious sauce that transforms your grill game.
Carolina Flamin' Applesauce is a thick, chunky, spicy applesauce crafted on the pirate shores of Topsail Island, NC—where Blackbeard once hid his treasure and his secrets. This ain't your grandma's applesauce. It's loaded with real BIG apple chunks, mild heat, and the kind of unique flavor that transforms ordinary grilled meat into legend.
Brush it thick on ribs. Slather it on pork chops. Spoon it over pulled pork. The sweet apple base caramelizes into a fire-kissed crust, while the heat sneaks up with a nice tingle that keeps you coming back.
Chunky enough to cling to meat, bold enough to stand alone as a rebel side dish.
Sweet heat with attitude. Pirate approved. Grill ready.

Can you feel that sizzle? This one has EXTRA Heat.
Carolina Flamin' Applesauce Double Flame is thick and chunky like the original, but with a little something extra: Added Mexican Chiltepin Pepper — known as the "mother of all peppers" — this fiery, pea-sized berry measures 50,000 to 100,000 Scoville heat units.
