Hatch Chile Rosting FAQ's

Exclusively grown in the Hatch Valley of New Mexico, Hatch Chile Peppers have a limited harvest season from late fall to early summer. Hatch Chile peppers are known for having a unique smokey, but sweet flavor balanced with the perfect level of heat. When roasted, their flavors are enhanced and make for the perfect specialty ingredient for a wide range of dishes. These prized peppers are anticipated by many, so come out and enjoy the taste of freshly roasted Hatch Chile Pepper!

Due to their thick outer skin, Hatch Chile Peppers are typically roasted before eating. Roasting truly brings out the best in these peppers from flavor, texture, and aroma. There is no better way to have your Hatch Chile Peppers roasted than having them professionally done in our large tumbling roasters, which ensures your Hatch Chilis are roasted evenly and thoroughly on all sides resulting in a consistent, delicious flavor. Roasting an entire 25lb. case of peppers usually takes less than four minutes, so you’ll have your peppers perfectly roasted much quicker than using a traditional gas grill or stovetop!
