Good morning and “Welcome Back” to another installment from my coverage of the 2017 NYC Hot Sauce Expo that took place a few days ago over at the Brooklyn Expo Center. This years event was the fifth annual and as I’ve noted in the previous chapter, we’ve been in attendance and covering this since the very first one. The interesting thing about that was at first it was an event feature on my PiercingMetal.com website but with “The Chronicles” picking up steam as a Lifestyle and Culture Blog, I’ve been doing this coverage here. Those who might want to see those articles in the archive can click HERE to bring up a proper tag. Please be aware that some calendar listings will manifest as well based on how WordPress works.

We love this spice.  It’s so tasty and cannot wait to cook with it at home.

It’s always great to catch Hot Sauce legend Chip Hearn of Peppers.com – He is an industry mainstay for sure.

Check out that bling.

We met up with these marines who were the creators of a sauce called So’Cal.  It had a nice bite to it but most important for me, a wonderful taste.

There are always miles of smiles at the Hearbreaking Dawns booth.  That is until the volatile blend of spices in their sauces hits you.  Then you need a Kleenex…..

So that will bring us to the end of this second installment and part of me if you could handle a third chapter. Hmmm, decisions, decisions. Okay I’ll do it. I will peruse the mobile device and see what sort of final photos and candid moments that I captured at the event. Please don’t forget to hit up our Social Networks of Facebook, Twitter and Instagram so you are always right there with us. We’d love to have you along for the fun. Also, I’ve taken some painstaking strides in making sure that you have the Official links to many of the companies and people that we met in this chapter. Please click through to their websites and see what they are offering you as a fan of this stuff. See you again real soon.
