Specialty Peppers

Beyond the bell — sweet, smoky, and downright fiery peppers worth knowing.

Seasonal

Peppers go way beyond the grocery-store bell. Depending on the season we may have sweeter frying peppers, smoky types, and some that will get your attention.

A word of caution: with hot peppers, wash your hands well and keep them away from your eyes. Ask us how hot something is before you commit.

TODO_CONTENT: Confirm which pepper varieties Griffin's carries and when.
