I am growing some of my own, 3 plants were doing just fine, until some critter came in the night and bite the main stem of all 3 plants, left them in the planter and they are growing again. To answer your question, a buddy of mine, freezes his and them uses them through out the winter. Haven't tried it my self yet. Ya might try that.Large, small, and a mini

Over the weekend I had fried jalapeños done like fried okra. They were awesome.

I smoke mine and then dehydrate them. You can rehydrate in the future but most of them go into my spice grinder with some other spices for chili powder.

I was thinking about drying and grinding. I may give that a shot with the next batch. Did that with a bunch of chilies from my friend and they turned out great. The chicken bombs sound really good too. Good thing I have a bunch. Thanks guys.Dunedin, FL

My wife grows them. We eat them almost daily this time of year.We will seed, cut and saute' them with pork of ground turkey, any other odd veggies (Okra or green beans f'rinstance) and some Szechuan sauce and serve over rice....Thai style.Some like it hot. We sure do.When I'm not Eggin', I'm scootin' Eggin' and 'cueing from Temecula Ca; an hour from San Diego, an hour and five minutes from Palm Springs, and an hour and a half from Los Angeles (yeah, right. With THAT traffic?)

I made a jalapeno jelly once, it took a lot of peppers (which I see you have). It was very good on pork chops, but not much else. Lemme see if I can find the recipe..._____________
Remember when teachers used to say 'You won't have a calculator everywhere you go'? Well, we showed them.

Turtle Eggs, fried jalapeno sticks (mix em in with french fries), salsa, pico de gallo.
We had a bunch that were almost ready to go and something came along and ate all of our jalapenos, red peppers, and poblanos. And not just ate them, but stripped the plants of all the leaves and everything. Nothing was left behind but the stems. I was super pissed.

I hear you Griff. Something got both of my bell pepper plants and took the top half of my jalapeno plants. I revived one jalapeno plant, but have yet to get one. I was pissed too.

Stuff them with cream cheese and chorizo. I cook some chorizo and when done, add cream cheese to pan to soften and mix (about 75% cream cheese). Put it into a ziploc bag and cut the bottom corner to use as a piping bag. It's a breeze if you use one of the pepper roasters - basically a piece of bent sheet metal full of holes to hold the peppers upright. Put them on your BGE for a half hour indirect ay 350.

Peach Jalapeno Salsa
We love this recipe:
Peach Jalapeno Salsa<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
· 2 cups fresh peaches or 1 (15oz.) can peaches, drained
· 1 can (15 oz.) fiery roasted tomatoes, drained
- 1/4 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 to 4 small jalapeños, finely chopped
- 2 to 3 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, crushed or minced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
In a large bowl, dice peaches into half inch pieces for a chunky dip. Cook the onion, jalapeno and garlic on BGE at 325 indirect until tender. About 1 hour. Then finely chop the onion, jalapeños, garlic and cilantro. Add lime juice, cider vinegar and salt; toss well. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes or longer.
Great to make a day ahead. -
@vidalia1 that sounds really good. I love peach salsa.@TamaleTime sounds like I need to pick up some chorizo on my next costco run. Sounds a lot easier to pipe it then wrap with bacon.Dunedin, FL

Those big green worms (i call them tomato worms) will strip a plant overnight. They'll eat up pepper and tomato plants.Griffin said:Turtle Eggs, fried jalapeno sticks (mix em in with french fries), salsa, pico de gallo.

@Griffin, I'd look around for these. They are green horned caterpillars. Found three of them in our garden this year.
-
Some Sevin dust will take care of the caterpillars. Those green ones are nasty. They even eat my green onions! The biggest problem with them is that they are so TINY and you don't realize what they're doing until they grow a lot larger and then devastate your plants. Good luck in getting rid of them.

Every year I get a big batch of hatch chilies around now. They go one the grill to get some smoking and to remove the skins. Then I blend them with just enough good olive oil to make a tight-ish slurry. I pour that into ice cube trays and freeze it. The cubes go into intoa freeze bag and get used throughout the year. They add a ton of great flavor. Should work just as well with jalapenos.I'm also a huge fan of pickled jalapenos. So good in Bloody Mary's...CheersB_BFinally back in the Badger State!

I plan to picks some of mine this year. You can make boiled peanuts with them if like spicy. I'm going to make for the 1st time this year.Boom

Lots of great ideas here. I've grown jalapeño in he past and they are definitely high yield plants. I found a rub recipe that calls for jalapeño powder, which i couldn't find at the store. I bought some japs, cut in half, removed the stem and dehydrated skin side down. Ground and sifted. The powder is really nice. You can sub for chili powder or shake on steaks. Really good on popcorn, too. Good luck!-The GoatMarietta, GAXL BGE
