The original hot sauce since 1986

In 1986, Mr. Doan began serving crispy fried egg rolls at his stall, paired with a red sauce that was sweet, sour, and spicy. Customers immediately fell in love with the unique flavor.

Word of mouth spread quickly, and soon people craved the sauce—not just with egg rolls, but with their favorite dishes at home. Inspired by customer feedback, Mr. Doan perfected the recipe, making it spicier while preserving its rich, complex flavor. Soon, customers were taking bottles home, sharing it with family and friends.

What began as a simple homemade sauce became a beloved classic. This was the humble beginning of our Original Hot Sauce.

The unique taste of our family recipe

A true family recipe is more than just ingredients, it’s about tradition, passion, and love. It’s the familiar flavor that reminds you of home.

At Doan’s, we cherish that tradition, crafting our hot sauce with the same dedication and care that started it all. Every bottle is a tribute to authentic flavor meant to be enjoyed with the ones you love.

Slow-cooked to perfection, our sauce is infused with deep, bold flavors that strike the ideal balance of flavor, sweet, sour, and spicy. This is our simple way of sharing good food.

The rich tomato & fiery chilli pepper

Our Original Hot Sauce is crafted from just two key ingredients: a fiery chili pepper base and rich, savory tomato sauce. Together, they create a deep, well-rounded flavor that enhances any dish.

To achieve our signature family flavor, we blend in a hand-selected mix of spices, enhancing the umami of tomatoes and intensifying the heat of the chilies. The result is a sauce that is spicy yet balanced, complex, and deeply flavorful.

Versatile and bold, our tomato-chili pepper hot sauce pairs perfectly with cuisines from around the world, from Italian pasta and Greek Gyros to French fries and American burgers.

Cooking low and slow in small batches

Great flavor takes time. That’s why we carefully select the finest ingredients and slow-cook them in small batches over low heat, allowing the flavors to fully develop into something truly special.

As the sauce simmers, the flavors grow richer and more complex. Bold chili peppers release their fiery essence, while savory tomatoes deepen in sweetness and aroma. Our signature spice blend then brings everything together, creating our unique family taste.

After a long wait, the moment arrives when the flavors are at their peak. While the sauce is still hot, we bottle it to seal in the fresh flavors.

Endless ways to enjoy our hot sauce

Our hot sauce isn’t just about heat, it’s about enhancing flavors and elevating every meal. With the perfect balance of flavor, it’s a versatile companion in any kitchen.

Drizzle it over grilled meats for an extra layer of boldness, mix it into marinades to deepen flavors, or stir it into soups and stews for a savory kick. Use it as a dip for fries, wings, and nachos, or blend it into dressings and sauces for an unexpected twist.

From tacos and burgers to roasted vegetables and even breakfast eggs, our hot sauce transforms everyday dishes into something extraordinary. However you enjoy it, one thing is certain, it brings out the best in every bite.

Our commitment

At Doan Hot Sauce, we believe great flavor starts with quality ingredients. That’s why we use only the finest natural ingredients and flavors. We are committed to pure, authentic taste, making our sauces gluten-free and free from GMOs, MSG, sweeteners, or artificial colorings.

To guarantee freshness and quality, we use just a small amount of preservative, ensuring every bottle stays as flavorful as the moment it was made. Our dedication to small-batch production preserves the authentic taste of our original recipe.

With Doan Hot Sauce, you’re not just getting heat—you’re experiencing a tradition of quality, craftsmanship, and passion in every bite.
