About Tony's Hot Sauce

Meet Tony Vaughn – The Flavor Behind the Fire Born and raised in Atlanta, Tony Vaughn spent years perfecting the handcrafted heat that would become Tony’s Hot Sauce. What began as a personal passion—just a man and his peppers—evolved into a flavorful obsession. While Tony relished the process, he hesitated to take it public...until friends insisted his sauce was simply too good not to share. In September 2021, with the encouragement of loved ones and the steady support of family, Tony’s Hot Sauce Company was born. What started in home kitchens and backyard cookouts quickly became a mission: to craft gourmet, all-natural hot sauces rooted in Caribbean flavor and made with zero compromises. Now, two years later, Tony has fully embraced his second act. A proud father of four, grandfather of one, and retired from the airline industry, he’s turned his energy toward building a hot sauce legacy—infused with family, flavor, and fire. Because when something’s this good...you bottle it up and share it with the world. Read their story
