Consumers will soon enjoy new, easier-to-use bottles of Texas Pete hot sauce, made by TW Garner Food Co.

"We've made it easier to enjoy the bold, balanced flavor of Texas Pete by adding a convenient flip-top lid," says Ann Garner Riddle, CEO. "Adding a few drops of Texas Pete to your favorite foods will be the same great experience with our new flip-top cap. You can also remove the top to pour Texas Pete into a measuring cup or spoon for using our sauce as an ingredient in your recipe. We want everyone to know that while we have improved our bottles, the same great products you've come to know and love are inside."

The new 6-oz bottles are used for the company's popular Texas Pete original hot sauce, hotter hot sauce, and garlic hot sauce. New 12-oz bottles are now used for Texas Pete original hot sauce, all wing sauce flavors, honey mustard sauce, and cocktail sauce. A larger, 24-oz bottle of Texas Pete original hot sauce is also appearing on store shelves nationwide. The 3-oz bottle of Texas Pete original hot sauce will remain in the heritage-style design.

"We are always trying to improve our product to benefit our loyal customers. With this new bottle and cap, making food delicious with Texas Pete is easier than ever," says Glenn Garner, Chief Marketing Officer. "And we added the iconic cowboy to the bottle to make it cooler, too."
