Rodrigues Kitchen Piri Piri hot sauce, inspired by his father’s spirit

From a Portuguese Kitchen to the Streets of New York City

Rodrigues Kitchen Piri Piri hot sauce is the story of a boy raised in a home where food was everything—a language, a celebration, a legacy. Antonio's earliest memories are of watching his father, utterly at home in the kitchen, infusing every dish with passion and instinct rather than measurements.

As Antonio grew, his curiosity blossomed into a culinary obsession, blending time-honored family recipes with unique ingredients. The result: Rodrigues Kitchen Piri Piri hot sauce, inspired by his father’s spirit, his Portuguese roots, and the fiery allure of the African bird’s eye pepper.
