Product Overview
A big part of what sets this monk sauce apart is the sheer number of peppers they use in each batch. Each bottle is absolutely jam-packed with habanero peppers!
The monks blend these peppers with their classic recipe of onions, garlic, vinegar and salt. And naturally they throw in a few prayers for good measure while they work. What they end up with is a massively hot delicious sauce: the smell alone is enough to get your mouth watering!
The variety pack includes these delicious sauces:
It was the desire of St. Benedict that his brothers should live by the work of their hands. Buying these 5 oz bottles of sauce is an excellent way to support them and their abbey!
Monk Sauce comes in at about 250000 heat units on the Scoville scale, a system of measurement used to compare the spiciness of chile peppers. In comparison, Tabasco’s Habanero Sauce is about 7000 Scoville Units.
The Journey of Monk Sauce
Fr. Richard Walz OSB began making habanero hot sauce while stationed in Belize Central America. In early 2003, he returned to his Arkansas abbey, bringing some seeds from his habanero garden with him. Since then, Subiaco Abbey ”Monk Sauce” has become a regional favorite and is sold nationally and internationally.
