Sauce
A traditional, spicy Portuguese Oil-Based Hot Sauce. This popular condiment is typically served with Portugal's most famous sandwich: The Bifana. Adding a spicy but tangy addition to any dish, Piri-Piri is made even more delicious by a simple addition of The Boulder Hot Sauce Company's Smokey Serrano.
