See, back in the old days when explorers set off in search of new lands, they’d come home with treasures, a variety of nuts and some cool t-shirts. Around 1574, however, Portuguese explorers in search of a short cut to the East stopped at a port in Mozambique to replenish their supplies and check out the nightlife.

While they were there, they discovered something that would change their lives forever – a tiny pepper. Piri Piri grew wild in the tiny South African nation, and as the Portuguese people discovered all the fantastic spices and sauces they could create with the pepper, explorers soon became settlers.

Maybe it was the flavors that the Piri Piri sauce brought out in the chicken and fish they cooked. Or the spices used with the natural herbs and oil to make marinades, bastes and dipping sauces that to this day make you literally crave more. Or maybe it was the rumored aphrodisiac qualities. (That’s probably why they went from being explorers to settlers.)

Whatever it is about the Piri Piri pepper, the unique and unforgettable flavor lives here at Boneheads. We invite you to take the adventure and savor the spice of life for yourself. We’ve also got cool t-shirts.
