💥 Pull the pin. This one's a flavour bomb.
This is what happens when New Zealand's original craft hot sauce meets a smoked chilli salt that tastes like umami had a bonfire!
The Firestarter Kit is NZ's hottest gift box - pairing two of New Zealand's most iconic heat makers in one seriously good-looking box. Designed around the classic Kiwi backyard. The kind of gift that looks great on the table, gets passed around all afternoon and actually gets used. No regifting. No shoved-to-the-back-of-the-cupboard fate. Just serious heat, serious flavour and serious Kiwi backyard BBQ energy.
Great mates. Great meat. Packing some heat. 🔥
What's inside the kit:
-
Raptor Naturals Chilli Salt Bomb (185g) - Hot sauce heat you can shake on. A smoked NZ seasoned salt with thirteen all-natural, honest ingredients - smoky chipotle, cayenne, lemony sumac, organic Marlborough sea salt, nutritional yeast for umami depth, and native NZ horopito and kawakawa for a uniquely Kiwi heat. Most chilli salts are just salt and chilli flakes. This one is a straight-up flavour bomb.
-
Kaitaia Fire Chilli Pepper Sauce (148ml) - NZ's OG hot sauce since 1989. Northland-grown, sun-dried cayenne and jalapeño chillies, barrel-aged, zero artificial anything. If you know, you know. If you don't - you're about to.
Together they cover everything. Hit the protein with the Chilli Salt Bomb before it goes on the BBQ or the charcoal smoker for a proper flavour crust. Drizzle Kaitaia Fire over the top after for that fresh chilli kick. Steak, snapper, ribs, corn cobs, hot chips, scrambled eggs - both bottles earn their spot on the bench permanently.
For the bloke who takes his barbie seriously: This is the gift for the person who has a dedicated hot sauce shelf. Who puts chilli on their eggs at 7am. Who knows what Scoville units are. The pitmaster, the charcoal devotee, the backyard BBQ king who'd genuinely lose it over this. At $24.99 it's the easy answer to "what do I get someone who has everything."
How to use:
-
SPRINKLE - Shake the Chilli Salt Bomb generously over steak, fish, chicken or vegies before cooking. Oil or fat is the carrier - that's when the flavour bomb really goes off. Go light at first - you can always add more.
-
SEAR - BBQ, pan fry, roast, air fry or low and slow on the smoker. The heat activates the spices and builds that gorgeous crust.
-
DRIZZLE - Finish with a hit of Kaitaia Fire for that fresh chilli kick. The two work together like they were made for each other. Because they were.
