Hatch chilies

The season is almost here. If you haven't tried these... I would recommend it. It takes a while on the egg but roast them with smoke. I used hickory last year and a friend that grew up in NM said they were the best he'd had. Don't be hesitant to go heavy on the smoke either. I've got 100 lbs in the bullpen.
Roast and pull the skin, wrap in paper towels in a baggie or paper bag, peel and freeze. Unbelievable in chili or on burgers... Or about anything.

Good to know. I couldn't seem to find the hot ones in my neighborhood last year. Maybe I didn't look for them early enough.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

@henappleI have not tried them myself. But on yours and brother Huskers recommendation I'm going to give them a try for sure. You know Uncle Apple, you could send your favorite nephew a few

I used to be in NM when the chilies were in season. There's nothing quite like the smell when a small grocer is roasting them in a large wire drum rotating over a burner. The smell just permeates everything for a couple of blocks.Coleman, Texas
Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

I have not tried that place, but have ordered several times from here based on APL recommendation: http://dagiftbasket.com/Southlake, TX and Cowhouse Creek - King, TX. 2 Large, 1 Small and a lot of Eggcessories. -
I ordered a variety of ground chili powders from That site about 18 months ago. Great selection, but I had problems with customer service, shipping was late, etc. The chili powders were good, but went dull on me very quickly.smbishop said:4Runner said:Anyone try this place? https://www.hatch-green-chile.com/shop/

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER -
Agreed! I lived in Albuturkey for 5 years and that was the most intoxicating smell ever. Have a couple sources here, freshly-roasted, I buy a bushel every year (they collapse down a lot after roasting and a bushel only takes up half your top-freezer).SciAggie said:I used to be in NM when the chilies were in season.

And a helpful BotchTip: wear rubber gloves when peeling a bushel, or wash your hands very thoroughly, before using the restroom.

@henapple I am not the spelling police here....but they get awfully pissed off out there if you don't spell it with and e ....Chile. Now I am a bit more on the lazy side of roasting my own. I order prepared Hatch Valley Fire Roasted Chile's from 505 Chile. D@mn good products.henapple said:The season is almost here. If you haven't tried these... I would recommend it.

There red chile sauce is outstanding over Breakfast Burritos & Enchiladas....My favorite however is the Fire Roasted Green Chile. I make a Green Chile Chicken stew that will warm you up in the colder months. I slow roast the Chicken on the egg, pull it and build the stew from there. Back on in an uncovered dutch oven. Check out the 505 poducts.....I do not work or have affiliation with them. ......but love the products. http://505chile.com/Ellijay GA with a Medium & MiniMax

I must not do them right or when we get them someone is cashing in on the name. I see no difference between what is represented as "hatch" peppers to me then the regular Anaheim peppers I can get year round.I raise my kids, cook and golf. When work gets in the way I'm pissed, I'm pissed off 48 weeks a year.Inbetween Iowa and Colorado, not close to anything remotely entertaining outside of football season.
