Transcripts
A little something good to put hot sauce on that's not going to change the taste at all.
Speaker:Oh! Oh, it's been so long! Oh my gosh!
Speaker:Alright! It's a bright, sunny day here in D.C. And today, I'm off to see another all-star who lives in the area.
Speaker:In the DMV, as we call it.
Speaker:So, I'm off to see my man, Andrew. Yes, Andrew and Julie agreed to capture the first taste,
Speaker:of this premium sauce.
Speaker:So, stand by, next stop, Andrew and Julie's.
Speaker:All right, as I mentioned, coming to visit another all-star,
Speaker:one of my top 20, to jump on board almost right away.
Speaker:Soon as he got word, he signed up.
Speaker:So I'm here in Northwest D.C. and I'm visiting Andrew and Julie.
Speaker:And Andrew and Julie just told me, just filled me in on how long it's been since I've seen them.
Speaker:They first met me on a first date when they came into my store that was on Capitol Hill.
Speaker:And now they're married with two kids.
Speaker:Oh my goodness. And I can't believe, after all that, they're still worried about some UncleBrutha?
Speaker:Are you kidding me? All right, well, that's wonderful. So anyway, let me stop delaying,
Speaker:and I want you to meet Andrew and Julie.
Speaker:Are you framed up? Yes, they're framed up. All right, this is Andrew and Julie.
Speaker:Now, I'm going to present, Andrew has two bottles coming of number 10,
Speaker:because he signed up, and it, you know, I keep telling him,
Speaker:it took me a while to get everything out like I promised,
Speaker:but Andrew has been patient,
Speaker:and, you know, kept his emails to a mild rage.
Speaker:Not, not too ragey.
Speaker:He wasn't, look, it was like, Andrew was like everybody else.
Speaker:Okay, well, that's cool. Glad you're all right. Hurry up! Hurry up!
Speaker:Okay, now, we're here. So, Andrew has been holding on to some lunch
Speaker:that he brought home just for this occasion.
Speaker:So, Andrew's busting out on the beat.
Speaker:The pastrami sandwich. That's right. So I got to tell you, our first meal that we cooked together
Speaker:was a dinner party we threw. That's true.
Speaker:And we cooked it with some UncleBrutha's. So just looking at this label sends us through
Speaker:into paroxysms of nostalgia and trips down memory lane.
Speaker:And Julie had the brilliant idea that when it's — because UncleBrutha's is great,
Speaker:but it's too much for some people.
Speaker:She cut it with a little bit of plain yogurt, and it made a fabulous dipping sauce.
Speaker:You can do 50-50 if you wanted to be dipping. You could even do a little less yogurt and more sauce if you want to do it as a marinade or a glaze.
Speaker:But you add a little bit of that creamy, it's already got lots of umami. Mm-hmm.
Speaker:So, just seeing this red label again makes us feel young, makes us feel like newlyweds again. Oh, right.
Speaker:So, we cannot wait to give this a try.
Speaker:All right.
Speaker:And I can't wait to see what they think, because- It hasn't changed, right?
Speaker:You promise it hasn't changed?
Speaker:Look, these are the best batches I've ever made.
Speaker:I didn't change the recipe, but the only difference is, these are made by me.
Speaker:So- Did you outsource it before? Who made it before? Yes, I had a contractor.
Speaker:The elves? I had little elves, yes, little elves.
Speaker:So we got some bagels from Call Your Mother, just picked up less than an hour ago in Georgetown.
Speaker:We're gonna try that out. Fine D.C. food product placement.
Speaker:Oh yeah, that's the stuff we remember. Oh yeah. It's been so long.
Speaker:You didn't change it. I didn't change it. It's still as good as ever.
Speaker:I'm gonna try just some farfalle, Just a little something good to put hot sauce on
Speaker:that's not gonna change the taste at all.
Speaker:Oh! Oh, it's been so long, oh my gosh! These, I must say so myself,
Speaker:one of the best batches of number 10 I have ever done.
Speaker:I think it is a little hotter. Well, I, because- Did you dumb it down for Whole Foods?
Speaker:The only thing I ever did with the, what you knew before,
Speaker:and I'm gonna be, this is true confession to you, okay?
Speaker:What you had before were compromises.
Speaker:They were compromises. This Whole Foods said, make it less hot so we can sell more bottles.
Speaker:Because people have to use more to get to that level.
Speaker:It was really all about, let me show Andrew.
Speaker:Killing this sandwich here, okay.
Speaker:It was really, it was really just about working with a business that was in business.
Speaker:To package other people's recipes and they have limitations.
Speaker:Every business that's in business to do this was not equipped to make my sauces.
Speaker:They just, the process that I go through, it's really what makes the, that's why you're saying.
Speaker:It tastes hotter, it tastes, the flavors should be more vibrant. Is it because you use a fresh,
Speaker:pepper instead of a... They use fresh peppers. It's all in the technique. It's not that I changed,
Speaker:anything. I did the same thing that, you know, I trained the co-packers to do, but none of them
Speaker:were ever able to smoke the way, you know, slowly and thoroughly. So you smoked your own jalapenos?
Speaker:I smoke everything. Everything gets smoked. Everything. And slowly.
Speaker:And the garlic? You smoke the garlic, too?
Speaker:Everything. Garlic gets smoked. Isn't that wonderful? Wow.
Speaker:And when you do it that way, the peppers take on a whole new profile.
Speaker:The flavors come out. They get a little bit more sweet and a little bit more vibrant.
Speaker:What I had to do with the co-packers was allow them to simulate the smoking process.
Speaker:Alright, this is even better than I remember. Say that one more time.
Speaker:This is even better than I remember. Say that one more time.
Speaker:I cannot recommend highly enough. We were young heat lovers and now you can see we've seen some things in the meantime.
Speaker:This is even better. They turn that heat into something a whole lot of love didn't they?
Speaker:Oh my goodness, they're married all these years later with children and the children are 10 and 12,
Speaker:10 and 12 I can't believe that it's oh and look and they still still hanging with uncle,
Speaker:and still thinking about it Oh my goodness I cannot get over this,
Speaker:Listen, let me just say, I want to thank you both.
Speaker:For jumping on, you know, with the cause that give a couple of folks their money back because they
Speaker:just didn't, you know, think I was going to go through with what I said I was going to do.
Speaker:So as you know, I have a membership. You have to be a member of my website to get the sauce now.
Speaker:Because this time around, because of what I just explained about how I'm making the sauce,
Speaker:I need to take the time to, I'm kidding you guys.
Speaker:So handsome, such a lovely couple, I want to make sure you know.
Speaker:This time I have to do what I didn't do last time, which is build my production from the ground up.
Speaker:And do you do this at your home, or do you have a facility? I'm going to be, I'm working with, I have a client, Fish Market of Maryland.
Speaker:And they, when I first came out, they had taken on the sauces, you know, right from the beginning.
Speaker:They bought carousels for their tables, had them on every table, incorporated them into recipes.
Speaker:They really went whole hog and got behind me.
Speaker:And so what Sherry is doing now is going to allow me to come into the kitchen during off,
Speaker:hours so I can bottle and package in her kitchen.
Speaker:I can make them for retail sale. For right now, I'm working out the process. How I'm
Speaker:going to be, you know, everything I'll need, what I'm going to use. So I'm doing it, not
Speaker:there. That's why the membership is necessary, because I can give them to you all day long.
Speaker:As long as we're members.
Speaker:As long as you're members. I'm glad we kept the faith. I'm glad we kept the recipe.
Speaker:Yes, me too. I'm glad you kept the recipe. Yeah. Because this is still the best. Undefeated.
Speaker:I'm glad you kept the recipe, because this is still the best.
Speaker:Undefeated. Now we feel like not only are we old-timers, we're also in on the ground floor.
Speaker:That's right. Yes. So now we feel like founding members, as well as old-timers.
Speaker:Yes. Absolutely. We're not just investors.
Speaker:And look, since you brought up founding members.
Speaker:What this experience has done was help me realize that I have to limit my memberships.
Speaker:For a little while. So I'm going to cut it down. So we're not in while we could.
Speaker:Yes, because I'm going to cap it at 100.
Speaker:So that I don't have to deal with too many more of these delays.
Speaker:So we shouldn't be telling our friends.
Speaker:Keep this our secret. If you tell your friends, they can get in now, because when this 100 is gone, then I'm,
Speaker:I'm going to pause letting any new members in until I get stabilized with the 100 and,
Speaker:I should have everything in place at the restaurant.
Speaker:And then I'll begin to open it up. I'll have bottles on the website for retail sale.
Speaker:And at that point, the benefit to having membership, privilege of membership at that point will
Speaker:member orders or shipments will always go out first.
Speaker:Will always go out first. And then if I have to make any more to fulfill member orders,
Speaker:they will get fulfilled and then anything left over goes on the website.
Speaker:It's available for sale. And then it's full retail price plus shipping when you get it on retail,
Speaker:unless you have a subscription and you can get free shipping on, you know, with the subscription.
Speaker:But the membership is always gonna be this fixed price, which is discounted from what the retail price will be.
Speaker:And of course, includes shipping and delivery, whatever.
Speaker:So if you don't have your membership, you better get on it because they're going fast.
Speaker:And then, you know, Andrew and Julie got a couple of folks who might want one too.
Speaker:So, you know, by the time they send their folks and their folks send their folks,
Speaker:you know, those hundreds are gonna be gone before you know it.
Speaker:So you bet. Word travels fast. Say that one more time.
Speaker:Word travels fast.
Speaker:You see that? You see that? Now that's what I, this is, this is, this is all the, this is the kind of love I'm talking,
Speaker:I'm just, I'm just so thrilled. Thank you so much for letting me come by and do this with you guys.
Speaker:This is so much fun.
Speaker:I love, this is, this is why I came back. Because I was getting all of these messages and love for this never dies and these proclamations
Speaker:of undying love for UncleBrutha's AllSauce.
Speaker:So here we are.
Speaker:Two more people that you can hold responsible for me losing my mind and bringing these products back,
Speaker:so I can see more smiles like these.
Speaker:And we're not saying that if you take a girl and give her some UncleBrutha's on a first date
Speaker:that you're gonna end up married.
Speaker:We're just saying, it's happened before.
