We are Terry, EJ, and Linda, the owners of a new storefront, The Sauce Shop in Bethalto. We are also the owners of Phathead BBQ Sauce, the first business we created.  We have developed (currently) 5 flavors of BBQ Sauces, with a 6th one to be produced very soon. Our 5 flavors include Sweet Heat, Honey Kone, Smoke Whiskey, Pickle Garlic, and Jalapeño Garlic.  We are in numerous markets in the area and participate in local events and farmers' markets on a weekly basis.        

We decided to open The Sauce Shop as another way to promote our BBQ Sauces, plus highlight other sauces and seasonings that allowed customers to enhance their menus at home.  We offer a variety of seasonings and hot sauces, jellies, mayos, and locally made products, and also offer grilling supplies, décor, apparel, a selection of meat from Korte Meats, cheeses, jerky, and more! We wanted to create a store people that people would love to come to and be able to get products not seen in your typical grocery store.          

We are very excited to get more established in our community and are happy to have become a part of the RiverBend Growth Association! We joined the RBGA so we can essentially grow our two businesses.  Being a new shop in the area we want to get the word out about who we are and get people interested in coming to The Sauce Shop.  We would like to learn from others new ways to market ourselves and how to better the businesses we are creating.  We hope to build a bond with other local businesses in which we can all help and assist each other to become and stay successful.    

Our motto is simple: "If you try it you will buy it."

We are confident that once you've tried our sauce, you'll be hooked for life! Thanks for supporting our family-owned business - we hope Phathead BBQ Sauce brings as much joy to your table as it does to ours.

Store hours: Tuesday-Thursday 10-5; Friday and Saturday 9-5

With each location locally owned and operated, Scooter’s Coffee in Godfrey is part of the national franchise of over 550 locations in 26 states. It roasts “only the finest coffee beans in the world” at its headquarters in Omaha, Neb.      

In 1998, Scooter’s Coffee was born when co-founders Don and Linda Eckles began their journey by opening its first drive-thru coffeehouse in Bellevue, Neb. Now in its 25th year, Scooter’s Coffee has continued success due to its commitment to its original business principles and company core values.      

Noting the Caramelicious as the coffeehouse chain’s signature drink, the Scooter’s Coffee website also explains the story behind the name: “The very ?rst Scooter’s Coffee location was known as ‘Scooter’s Java Express.’ We named it ‘Scooter’s’ after reviewing a list of options including ‘Scooter.’ The name fit well with our mission to keep customers happy by helping them ‘scoot in and scoot out’ quickly.”
