ABOUT US

One afternoon, Rich Newton got a wild idea to make peppers - not pickles.  He took the inspiration from a combination of Southern sweet pickles and 'Cowboy Candy" but improved it with his own rendition to come up with "Elevated" sweet & spicy peppers.  

Many, many more afternoons and recipe tweaks later, Point Blank Pepper Company Smoke Rings was born.  And in the process, we also made a sweet & sour(ish) Table Sauce that can go on anything. We then kicked up the caliber with Table Sauce 2.0 - the same great Table Sauce but with ghost pepper and Hallow Rings - jalapenos and habaneros in a sweet ghost pepper brine.  

 

Buckshot is our version of a traditional Italian Giardiniera with the sweet heat of habanero in the brine.

And finally, we use every part of a jalapeno except the stem.  Our 'elevated' seasoning - Pith'd Off!  is a roasted jalapeno blend that is spicer than dried jalapenos.  Use this to increase the heat in any dish without altering the flavor by adding additional spices.

We have tremendous respect for the military and first responders, which is reflected in our company name, logo, and overall branding.  We proudly support two organizations that work with veterans and first responders.  The Tunnel to Towers Foundation that provides mortgage free homes to Gold Star familes with small children, builds specially-adapted smart homes for catastrophically injured veterans and first responders, and tireless works to eradicate veteran homelessness.

Mindy Newton

Mindy walks more on the 'Mild Side" but she's building up a tolerance.  Which means, she gets to taste stuff (a.k.a be the victim) when Rich says "It's not that hot".  She's also the official recipe tester and  'Unpaid Employee of the Month" - every month!
