bottled? send to to them in 5 gallon buckets. i have no experience in this but i know restaurants deal with large bulk containers.
Yessss it is a local sale. They offered to come by and give a bunch of these umbro like containers, but I've never stored by sauce straight from the pot into one of those conatiners. is that okay? if it is kept refrigerated....
They will be making a pizza for about a month long run out of the sauce. I am considering just buying the gallon glass jugs with metal caps as suggested.
picutred below is the containers they can give me to store the sauce in.

I am not sure the apple cider lids are approved for hot fill on the glass bottles with the rubber coating?
This is what you need. It's like what various hot sauces come in at restaurants and is approved for hot fill.
I'll post 2 sources.

The glass gallon lids I'm thinking of have the rubber ring on the underside like traditional canning jar lids and 16 oz glass jars of salsa.
Those plastic gallons are rated for hot fill! Cool!!!! First time seeing those.
Newks may want to check with the PA to make sure those would be ok for shelf stable status. The restaurant would probably appreciate not having to refrigerate 20 gallons, but hey, if they have the room.... :shrug:

Oh yea.... also plastic woozy bottles. In the past, myself and others have tried to hot pack in plastic woozys and they melt. I figured the big boys have very accurate packaging equipment that can hold the product exactly hot enough to be safe and not hot enough to melt the jug. Also, the larger jugs are probably thicker material.
I would only trust the ones that state it 
"These gallon bottles are comprised of multi-layer polypropylene plastic and are ideal for food products that are hot filled up to 205°F. Common uses include salsas, sauces and other industrial food products."

All i ever see in restaurant kitchens is plastic gallon jugs of hot sauce ,bbq sauce......a lot of places do not want big glass containers in the kitchen area,they can slip from greasy hands very easily.
I agree - plastic would be great for that reaeson. 5 Gallon tubs with lids would be great. The bigger the container the better. I just need to know what to buy! Please send any recommendations.
