The Open Bar Ranch is HQ of the Ghetto Gourmet, led by Cutter Stevens and Vince Votan.  Our team consists of many talented and unique individuals who pitch in to make our condiments the most delicious you've ever tasted!

Our collective is made up of chefs who have different specialties and attitudes who joined forces to throw the most epic events — most notably our annual Crawfish Boil, which was about to celebrate its 11th notorious year before the lock down shut us down.

During the 2020 Covid shutdown, we decided to channel our creativity into making unique condiments. It all started with our hot sauce, a culinary tribute to the good times we couldn't have. Surprisingly, it was a massive hit, selling out within hours. Encouraged by this success, we ventured into crafting our own mustard and pickles, both of which were equally well received. With plenty of spare time on our hands, we thought, why not push the boundaries and create something truly unusual? Thus, we embarked on a culinary adventure, concocting bizarre flavors that no one had ever tasted before. It became a thrilling experiment, and our creations garnered intrigue from adventurous food enthusiasts. Our determination to bring novelty to the table has not wavered, and we continue to explore uncharted territory in the realm of flavors.

Who We Are

What We Do

Here at the OBGG test kitchen we strive for the unique. Everything we make is something you won't be able to find on the grocery shelf; that's pretty much our motto.

OBGG products start with the best ingredients, which are sometime hard to find. Vince and Cutter often take to the road in search of neat new ingredients to science with — and to find the local place that everyone needs to try. Science and research!

Every product is prepared by hand without any artificial ingredients! No preservatives, no artificial flavors or colors, no emulsifiers or stabilizers. Nothing but what nature gives us. We can everything in Ball Mason Jars, guaranteeing a pretty decent shelf life (plus everyone loves having mason jars to re-cycle and re-use).

Real World (Raves and) Reviews:

Thanks to Vince & Cutter this has been one of our go-to dinners every week! Here (for my vegan/veghead friends) we have Beyond Sausage Brats simmered in a nasty strong IPA then pan grilled, served with OBGG's "Don't be a Sauer Kraut" topped with fresh cherry 'maters from my garden, OBGG's Irish Caviar, & TJ's spicy brown mustard. And for the meat eaters FYI....my highly carnivorous boyfriend, Flik, was confused and thought I was actually serving him real meat brats! 💪🍻 🐖 -Rhonda Roberts
