Three small-batch family brands under one roof — crusty fresh-baked bread, bold hot sauce, and garden-fresh salsa, all crafted in the Stevenson family kitchen. Real, clean ingredients you can read on the label.
Our story
Newlyweds with a calling
Back in 2011, Steven and Melinda Stevenson began their journey together as newlyweds with a passion for serving both God and people. They poured that heart into a simple farmhouse kitchen — cooking with real, healthy ingredients and sharing whatever came out of the oven with anyone who would sit at their table.
It was Steven's lifelong obsession with hot sauce that lit the first spark. Late nights blending peppers, dialing in heat, and chasing the perfect bottle gave birth to Anointed Fire Hot Sauce — sauce made the way Steven always believed it should be: bold, honest, and never watered down.
From there the family kitchen kept growing. Crusty artisan bread rose into a beloved bread line, and Melinda's passion became the source of bright, peak-ripeness salsa. Three brands, one kitchen, the same Kentucky soil — all built on faith, real food, and the people we love to feed.
"Whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord." — Colossians 3:23

Born in the fire
Anointed Fire began with Steven's lifelong obsession — chasing the perfect bottle of hot sauce long before there was ever a family business. When he and Melinda married in 2011, that obsession found a home in their newlywed kitchen.
"You are the salt of the earth." — Matthew 5:13

Bakery FAQ
Our bakers start before sunrise, so everything is baked fresh that same morning. Quantities are limited each day.
Flour, water, salt, and time — nothing else for our classic loaves. We mill a portion of our own wheat and source the rest from neighboring Kentucky farms. No preservatives.
Keep it at room temperature in a paper bag or bread box for two to three days, or slice and freeze to keep it fresh longer. A quick warm in the oven brings back the crust.

We pick the highest-quality ingredients to ensure we capture that fresh-from-the-vine brightness you can only get from a real garden. No concentrate, no fillers.
From Melinda's half-acre kitchen garden — heirloom tomatoes, peppers, corn, and herbs grown and picked by hand right here in Kentucky.
We pick in the cool of the morning and jar by afternoon, capturing that fresh-from-the-vine brightness. No concentrate, no fillers.
Sealed jars keep well in a cool pantry until opened. After opening, refrigerate and enjoy within a week or two for the brightest flavor.
They range from mild (Classic Garden) to sweet-hot (Peach Habanero). Each jar lists its flavor profile so you can pick the right one for your table.
