Suzanne

I paid for overnight shipping and peppers were shipped 2nd day. They arrived in a horrible, wrinkled condition. I was supposed to get a replacement shipment, but UPS has lost the shipment. I have emailed customer service about this and have not gotten a response. At this point, i just want a refund.

So good to stock up on hatch chili for the winter

So good to stock up on hatch chili for the winter.

They are fantastic bit of a learning curve

They are fantastic bit of a learning curve, roasting and peeling, but got it figured out

Peppers arrived kinda wilted and very dusty with about nine peppers rioted

Peppers arrived kinda wilted and very dusty with about nine peppers rioted. The remaining contents I washed and roasted same day I received them. They have a good flavor and very mild.

Mild Hatch Chiles 2026

Anonymous

grew up in New Mexico...was glad to be able to access the real products again. These chilies grilled up great and we will now access to "downhome" flavors for months to come.

Fantastic flavor

Randy Huyck

Fantastic flavor. Fire roasted and cleaned them. Excellent on everything

Great chiles for all-round family use, arrived in perfect condition

PS Pattison

First, it was great to receive the chiles as promised, in great condition. Since they arrived late in the day, I left them on the counter overnight -- and before long the chile scent was wafting through the kitchen. The next day, I roasted them, saved a pound or so for immediate use, and froze the rest for later. That "immediate use" turned into two chile-laced batches of spoon bread that we took to a family campout & picnic, where they immediately disappeared onto everyone's plates. Since they were the G-rated mild variety, even most of the younger picnic goers were able to enjoy them; rich chile flavor without brain-melt heat. I'll be ordering more, as long as they remain available.

Hatch delivery day is like a second Christmas!

Vickie Traynum

Hatch delivery day is like a second Christmas! We've roasted, stuffed and grilled our way through many of them so far. We love them!

Dana

I get these every year, but unfortunately this year they shipped them while I was away on vacation so by the time I got them at the PO Box they were all wilted and I had to throw the whole box away. I’m devastated, but I can’t afford another whole box I had no service where we were on a lake in Utah. I’m really bummed.

Great chilies

Kris

Came with several rotten chilis. The ones that were good are delicious.

JANATHAN

Thank you there were excellent

I just love fresh Hatch Chili peppers!!

I just love fresh Hatch Chili peppers!! These are delicious and definitely mild so my wife won’t have a fit 😂

Ahhh the air was filled with the smell of chilies roasting!

Linda Ohley

Received my box of chilies and the aroma coming from that box was amazing! I fired up my barbecue to start charring them so I could remove the skins! Ahhh the air was filled with the smell of chilies roasting. There was a nice blend of both red and green chilies. After letting the charred chili sat awhile on baggies I peeled them and played them on cookie sheets to freeze them individually. Once frozen I put them in baggies. My favorite way to freeze them. I can just pull out what I need based on what I'm preparing. I ordered the mild ones this year, but they are quit hot! Ok with me because I love spice but I will not be able to use for potlucks or dinner with friends. I did have 8 chiles in the middle of the box that I had to throw out. They were spoiled!

These Amazichiles were amazing

Max McHatton

These chiles were amazing. As soon as I received them, I washed and ate one. It was very crisp, refreshing and delicious.

The lady I spoke with was so kind, worked with me, and waited until I returned home from my trip to send my peppers. Excellent product.. I will definitely be repeat customer! Thanks so much!

Fresh Green Chile's!

Karen Hood

Why WOULDN'T you go fresh with the Hatch Green Chile Peppers!? My husband and I fired up our grill and had so much fun roasting the peppers and processing them to the freezer. It takes no time at all when you have a nice hot fire. I would recommend FRESH to everyone that has access to roasting them. You can roast them in your broiler too but the grill is much easier and faster. They tasted great on our hamburgers that evening too! An authentic Southwest Burger.

Roasted and in the freezer

Kathy Allen

Easy to roast and peel. I followed the directions, from your website, on my Weber grill. The smell was sweeter than my poblanos. They are in the freezer, waiting for me to cook them up.

Fast shipping!!

Rhonda Burton

Fast shipping and still perfectly fresh upon arrival!!

Had to freeze

Sheila Bianco

Received my chilies right before leaving town for a month. Only had time to prep for the freezer but they looked great. Can’t wait to get home to cook with them

Mild hatch.

Wilhelmina Peters

Delicious chilies. Thank you!!

Richard

Richard MacDonald

From what I was told that they were very good, meaty, and in most part mild. Was disappointed that FedEx picked up, transported to El Paso, loaded on a plane to Tennessee, and flown back to Arizona in 2 1/2 days. 2 boxes were ordered, 1 was delivered and the second box was delivered an hour later. That box was opened and the quantity was not the same as the first box. Missing over 5 pounds. FedEx should not be used again..

Delicious!

Chris Cate

They were great. I shared with my friends and they loved them too. I made chicken enchiladas, the best!

Beautiful Chiles

Arrived right when they were supposed to, they were all fresh and beautiful. I didn't throw even one away. Got them all roasted and in my freezer. Can't wait to use them!

POOR POOR POOR!!!!

Stephen Mcleroy

Asking for a review on product I was supposesd to get over 2 weeks ago. Now told it was being shipped today. We will see. Not holding my breath.

I never received it

Deb DeMay

I’ve sent several emails asking where my mild Chile is, and I got a note last week that said it hasn’t been picked. Well, it’s getting late in the year and I’m not sure I believe that I’ll ever get this order. I’m really disappointed because the roaster I use May not be working in his seasonal spot. And I don’t want to roast my own Chile. Waiting to see if I’ll actually get my order is causing a lot of stress. I’m not sure I would do this again with you guys. My first order was taken care of so quickly-as promised. The Chile was delicious. This time, as a return customer, I feel like I fell between the cracks… Please refund my order or take care of me and tell me something I can count on. It’s been over 2 weeks.

Best chile peppers ever!

Donna McCord

These were some of the best chiles we had in a long time! Our Fedex driver waited in her truck until I opened the door and picked up the chile. She is from New Mexico and said the smell was a reminder of home. She said it was all she could do to contain herself from breaking open the chiles. We had a good conversation about what we were doing with the chile! They did not disappoint! Yummmmmm

Wonderful Chili’s!

Sandra Bohannan

We ordered 25# and received the most beautiful chili’s we’ve ever seen. Not a single chili was lost. We’ve loved every product from FCC from fresh chili’s, spices, salsas and sauces and frozen chili’s.

Wonderful

Art Swain

I ordered 5 lbs of the fresh mild green chile for the 1st time and it didn't take me long to realize I should have ordered more and even medium heat at least. I roasted then on my gas grill which works great and my next door neighbor ask what that wonderful smell was coming from my back yard. I can only imagine what chile roasting season smells like in NM. I've now purchased several products from the FCC and they're all wonderful. Thanks for a great source of red and gfeen Hatch chile products

Donna Dee Austin Rader

Will order again next year. We like the Mild Chile Peppers.

Good flavor, but many were moldy when they arrived

Tracie

I thought the peppers tasted great. I roasted them within a couple days of them arriving at my house. I should say, however, about 20% of the peppers were mushy and/or moldy when they arrived at my house.

Seemed closer to mild than medium. Probably a seasonal thing.

Excellent flavor. Key was watching tour roasting tips. The high heat and ice bath was the winning ticket. Came out awesome. You should put in you tips to wear gloves when peeling lol. Experience speaking... love the peppers thanks.

The box arrived as expected, with the sweet and pungent smell of peppers! They were firm, thick flesh and high quality peppers that roasted up very well and resulted in a very high yield. Overall, I was impressed with the buying process. And I would say their customer support team is top notch - very transparent/quick to address questions and concerns. I will definitely be buying these again next year!

Chili's were the right amount of heat. Box arrived 2 weeks after notification chili's were shipped. Chili's on the bottom of box were starting to go bad. Black spots forming and some chili's were slimy.

Having a roaster of sorts would have made this job go easier - worked in batches. Tasty, delicious!!

Received our five pound order of large and heavy fresh from the field chile peppers. Very pleased with the quality and freshness, only wished we had ordered a hotter variety. We will definitely be ordering more before the season ends.

I ordered 10 pounds of Joe Parkers. The chiles arrived in great condition and still had that great crisp snap when you break them in half. The peppers were mostly 8 to 9 inches in length. There were about 50 chiles in the 10 pound box. The taste is excellent, definitely a great value and I got the pepper variety I like the most. Something you can’t normally get in the local grocery store.

These peppers are awesome! They were fresh, big, meaty and delicious. Just spice for all of our family to enjoy! Thank you! Will order again.

This was the first time I ordered these, so did not know what to expect. Within minutes after receiving the 10lb box I ordered, I opened the box and sorted through the peppers for roasting. In my opinion, you have to assume that only 80% of the peppers will actually be good, not the full 10lbs. Some peppers were cracked (which I used to eat fresh) or starting to develop white mold (probably during shipping), some were red, and surprisingly a LOT were too small or immature to roast. I was expecting top quality throughout the entire box, but for the price was not overly impressed. I did try roasting the smaller ones, but the flesh was too thin and either couldn't be peeled or was not anything left after trying to peel. Of the peppers that I was able to keep, I will admit they were super delicious!

Reddit users generally praise the flavor and versatility of authentic Hatch green chile, but note that quality varies significantly outside New Mexico, with store-bought versions often milder and less flavorful.

mixed sentiment70% match

Positive for authentic Hatch chiles and versatile uses, but negative about mass-market or shipped versions being inferior and sometimes bland; overall sentiment leans slightly positive because of strong enthusiasm among those who have had the real thing.

Themes

Authenticity and regional differencemixed
Versatility as a condiment/toppingpositive
Preparation and storage (roast, peel, freeze)positive
Varieties and heat levelsneutral
Quality issues with shipped/canned productsnegative

Use Cases

  • Used as a condiment or topping on burgers, pizza, eggs, burritos, sandwiches
  • In green chile stew and chile rellenos
  • Frozen in small batches for year-round use

Watch Out For

highStore-bought Hatch chiles outside New Mexico may be much milder, less flavorful, and sometimes not authentically from Hatch.
mediumMust roast and peel before eating; the skin is tough and capsaicin can irritate skin and eyes.
lowCanned whole Hatch chiles can be slimy; choose diced or chopped instead.
mediumMass-market shipping prioritizes durability over flavor, leading to bland, over-homogenized chiles.

Community Q&A

Are Hatch chiles the same as Anaheim peppers?
They are closely related New Mexico chile varieties; Hatch refers to region-grown peppers, often with more heat and flavor.
How do you prepare and store fresh Hatch green chiles?
Roast until skin blisters, peel off the skin, then freeze in zipper or vacuum bags for up to a year.
What can I substitute for fresh Hatch green chiles?
Jarred 505 or Hatch brand diced chiles, frozen Bueno, or Anaheim/poblano plus a hot pepper; fresh roasted is the best option.

Compared To

vs Anaheim chiles

Often considered similar, but Hatch-grown chiles are described as more flavorful/hotter due to terroir; some users dismiss Anaheim as a poor substitute.

vs Pueblo chiles

One user switched allegiance from Pueblo to Hatch after ordering a half bushel, noting Hatch is not as hot as Pueblo.

vs Canned or frozen alternatives

Canned peppers taste 'canned'; frozen Bueno or jarred 505 are preferred substitutes, with fresh roasted being best.

  • Store-bought Hatch chiles in Texas differ greatly from authentic Hatch NM chiles

    There is a HUGE disparity from the HEB, Central Market "Hatch Green Chile" items you find at the store vs the actual food you find in Hatch and across New Mexico.

  • Hatch chiles used as versatile topping and condiment

    I moved to Colorado from Chicago and I put them on everything now. They love their green chili out here. Put it on burgers, pizza, salad, pasta, eggs anything. I like it super spicy on burritos personally. I’m Chicago we have this condiment called Giardanera we put on everything. Similar concept.

  • Explanation of Hatch chile as New Mexico chile varieties and heat range

    Hatch chile is the most common way of talking about New Mexico chile. Our chile varieties range from about 500 scoville to 12,000 or so, depending on the variety.

  • Fresh roasted Hatch chiles can be used as a condiment on anything

    Literally put them on anything. Thats what they do in new mexico. Sandwich? yes, burger? with beans? yes. As a sauce? Yes. Essentially you can easily treat it as a condiment rather than a pepper.

  • Mass-market Hatch chile shipping prioritizes durability over flavor

    This means that some chile grown around Hatch has the same issues with any other big-market crop bred to ship: durability prioritized over flavor, over-homogenization, chiles picked too soon, etc.

  • Canned Hatch chile alternatives vs frozen Bueno

    Canned aren’t a _great_ option. If you can find frozen tubs I’d use them instead. Locally I can get both Santiago’s and Bueno; I’d highly suggest the latter if it’s available (and Bueno Autumn Roast would be ideal).
