ALTON - The local creators of Dawg Haus Grill’n Sauce recently discussed the sauce’s popularity, their future plans for the company, and where to get the sauce just in time for the Fourth of July. Freddie and April Hausman with Dawg Haus Grill’n Sauce appeared on an episode of Our Daily Show! on Riverbender.com to discuss their homemade sauce, and Freddie said it’s been very popular. “Last year, we sold close to 1,400 jars,” Freddie said, which he added was quite impressive “for starting out local, just at farmers markets.” April said the sauce is literally homemade - they make it in their home kitchen, and the jars it comes in take up an entire room in their house. The jars are sealed for added shelf life and are good for up to a year on the shelf, and up to six months after they’ve been opened (but must be kept refrigerated once opened). Freddie said Dawg Haus Grill’n Sauce has been so well-received that they

I have also provided additional information regarding state allocations to the City of St. Louis below: "Disagreeing on some issues doesn’t mean elected leaders need to be disagreeable on others.

From youth jobs to improving 911 dispatch to repairing our infrastructure, many of St. Louis’ top priorities are reflected in this year’s state budget. "These investments to support our youth, upgrade our infrastructure, and improve public safety will yield benefits for decades to come. Thank you to the St. Louis delegation for getting these important items across the finish line in the state legislature, and I appreciate Governor Parson for this consideration of the City’s needs."
