A passionate creator in the kitchen as well as on the page, Tennessee Bob, a.k.a. The Boca Hillbilly (my aliases/characters), I am known for crafting bold and flavorful hot sauces inspired by Ecuador and flavors from around the world, from MILD2WILD! From smoky to scorching, each sauce reflects the characters and spirit of Rancho Del Fuego, turning everyday meals into spicy adventures.
I am a retired electrical engineer and US Navy Veteran who lives in Boca Raton, Fl. with my wife Nicolina, (aka Lady Fingers) and son Ethan (aka Dragon’s Breath). Our family spends much of our time in Nikki’s native home of Quito, Ecuador, which is the inspiration for The Pepper People of Rancho Del Fuego and Tennessee Bob’s line of hot sauces.
I am the author of Rancho Del Fuego Hot Sauces and the book series “The Pepper People of Rancho Del Fuego” “Attack of the Hungry Iguanas” and “The Condor’s Condo.” In these fantastical stories, you’ll enjoy the adventures of the residents of this Ecuadorian farm. Rancho Del Fuego is a solace and retreat for the lost pepper souls who converge here, and these tales include encounters in their day-to-day lives with some not-so-friendly neighbors and other mishaps. The prequel to my movie Vision, The Fireflies is coming soon and prepares the world for the Apocalypse where the Pepper People save Humanity! They are hotter than lava-hint, hint!
