Carolina Creole

Luquire Family Foods' Carolina Creole is not to be confused with the creole sauces that pepper the state of Louisiana. Our recipe hails from Georgetown, South Carolina where we've cast our shrimp nets and frequented fish camps for generations and found inspiration to create a truly authentic creole you'll only find on the Carolina coast.

Our rich and vibrant sauce is a unique recipe that has been handed down in our family like great old fishing tales - by word of mouth. The matriarch of our family, Josephine "Jo” Luquire, first crafted this recipe almost 50 years ago upon our family's move to the small seaside town of Georgetown.

Since arrival, we've had our roots firmly planted in the pluff mud and focused our kitchen around using the plentiful bounty of our marshes, fields, waterways and storied rice plantations.

For almost five decades, our family has been serving up some of the tastiest creole on the Carolina coast. Our small batch crafted simmer sauce combines all natural ingredients like juicy tomatoes, bell peppers and onions with our signature spices. Pair Carolina Creole with shrimp, chicken, sausage or vegetables and serve over rice for a meal that will simply leave you speechless.
