Who are Grim Reaper Foods?
Grim Reaper Foods - Specialist Chilli Products - Heat That Comes For You
© Grim Reaper Foods Ltd 2009
On Halloween 2009, the company was incorporated, and on Halloween 2010 it started trading with the award winning 'The Evil One' hot sauce which won at the Fiery Foods festival that year.
I have developed a range of chilli products which have a heat unlike the mainstream products in the market place, and also a broad range of products, from hot sauces to mustards to rapeseed oils to who knows? The reaper does....
All products use the best available ingredients. Most of the fresh chillies are from
Edible Ornamentals **in Bedford. I also use selected dry chillies from the best source, Chipotle from Mexico, Naga from India. I only use
Aspall vinegars in my sauces. The rapeseed for my oils is grown, pressed, infused and bottled in Wilstone, nr Tring, on
Simon Meads's farm. The majority of the glass is made by
Beatson Clark, a British glass manufacturer.
The Reaper....Me (Russell) I am a professional chef, having worked around the world over the past 25 years, gaining experience of different cultures and methods, I use this knowledge in the development of new products. I have a good tolerance of chillies in food, but eating raw...
The Reapers wife...Sharron takes care of all the books, labelling and finer details, and also has to do some of the product tasting.
The Junior Reapers...Tying ribbons on the chocolate wrappers!
Chief Taster...Dave gets most of the tasting done along with Russell, his palate has been burned a few times in the trials with shouts of 'thats too hot'-so we know we are nearly there!! It was his question- 'which one is the evil one?', which gave one of the 4 sauces bubbling away on the stove its name!
Label designers...Nathan, Simon, Beki and Michelle
