A tripe product apt to be condemned (6)

I believe the answer is:

pirate

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'be condemned' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'a tripe product apt' is the wordplay.
'a tripe' can be anagrammed to 'PIRATE'.
But, I'm not sure how this is indicated.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
