Our 2023 season has kicked off and is expanding into new areas and traveling. While John loved his Farmers Markets, we are expanding into other venues. We want to thank everyone who has been there to support Maggie and the Defcon Sauces family. John will always be present with us during our events and his love for life and all things spicy will continue on as well. He was truly a wealth of information for many and a promoter of the industry as a whole.ĭefcon Sauces, LLC will continue on the adventure and keep John’s legacy alive. John would make the time to speak with newcomers and answer questions and provide whatever guidance he could provide. When it came to the hot sauce industry, John had a passion not just for his own products, but for the industry itself. John had a love of spicy foods and loved talking to people about spicy foods. John was never one to give up on anything and gave it his all. In September of 2021, John (AKA “The Creator”) fought a hard and long fight against Covid. Having won over 70 international awards for their products they continued to bring new ideas and flavors to all those who enjoy the spicy foods. Over the next 16 years, John and Maggie continued their passion for bringing new flavors to many and his love of life. When challenged by a friend, John and Maggie decided to enter into the spicy sauce world and immediately showed the spicy community that there was a new player in town. After many attempts to find the right wing sauce recipe, he landed on one which became a favorite of so many. John always had a passion for making spicy dishes and loved his wings. In 2004, John Dilley and his wife Maggie began an adventure into the world of spicy foods. President and “Creator” John Dilley of Defcon Sauces, LLC April 1965 - September 2021
