Spice level is just perfect! Love it

STEVEN

Free Chile Company Nailed It! Absolutely the best Chile in a Jar.

Steven

This is the best chile ever. We have been ordering fresh chile and roasting it, but this is sooooo much better. I am so happy to have found this.

MICHELLE

Awesome get you some!

Montie

Like them all with Matador being our favorite. We put it on most everything.

Cody

Been eating the green chiles since I received the order, it’s great on sandwiches, burgers, really anything. It adds a ton of good flavor. I wouldn’t really recommend eating it by itself on a chip though. It has a ton of flavor and can be overpowering on chips. But that’s why I also got the papas salsa. It’s supposed to be hot but I didn’t think so, it still has good flavor though. Highly recommend for any chili lover.

Delicious 😋

Linda

Taste delicious

Darin

Gave it to my son he is a hot lover

Mark

Beautiful and delicious all in one. An exceptional blend, with just a bit more heat. awesome customer service. I had originally ordered the Matador Green at first, but contacted the company and they swapped out the order for the red and green. Totally worth the wait and I plan to purchase from this company again!!

Yes, it is thicker and more pepper-forward in flavor.

Compared To

vs Fresh Chile Co medium green chilies and Sandia red & green hot chile

  • User compares Fresh Chile Co green chile varieties and mentions extra hot Matador version

    The medium green chilies are pretty good, but a little bland. I also ordered a jar of the red and green hot Sandia chile version, and that was much more flavorful. There's also an extra hot Matador version that I'd like to try.
