Good Chile flavor. Wife didn’t like it as well as I did. On the other hand we both rave about the green Chile sauce. Very authentic flavor and consistencyJim L · Verified
Delicious and authentic! I lived in New Mexico for a few years and was fortunate to be served homemade dinners often made by a mexican grandmother. This chile is just as good as all the rest, if not better! I purchased the red in the medium heat. It was a little mild for my liking but the flavor was on point. Will purchase again! Can’t seem to find any other chile online or in stores where I now reside, so it’s worth the extra buck or two.Anonymous · Verified
My husband and I fell in love with the taste of New Mexico on a recent trip. Upon our return home, all we could think about was the amazing salsas and sauces we had discovered. While searching the internet, I stumbled upon Ol' Gringo Red Sauce. I ordered it and finally put it to use last night in/on some enchiladas, a long with a splash of the Ol' Gringo Green Sauce. They were delicious. The flavor is phenomenal. The heat is perfect. It doesn't overshadow the flavor at all. Simply delicious. I will now be ordering by the case along with the Green Sauce and New Mexico Salsa.Joy K · Verified

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Hatch green chile salsa and salsa verde?
Salsa verde is typically tomatillo-based and Mexican in origin. Hatch green chile salsa is built on roasted Hatch chile from the Hatch Valley — smokier, more complex, less tart. They are not interchangeable.
Is Hatch green chile sauce hot enough for spicy food fans?
Mild and medium are family-friendly. Our hot variety has real warmth. For chile-heads, look for varieties marked "Sandia Select" (~9,500 SHU) or "Lumbre" (12,000+ SHU, varies year to year) — these bring real heat. The original Sandia, often used for traditional dried red chile, sits lower at ~6,500 SHU.
Can I use Hatch green chile salsa on tacos and chips?
Yes. Our salsa is engineered for chips, tacos, eggs, and burgers as well as burritos.
How long does an opened jar last in the fridge?
Refrigerate after opening and use within 14 days. Freeze leftovers in a freezer bag for up to 6 months.
Are these sauces vegetarian?
Pure chile sauces are vegetarian. Specialty ranchero blends may contain meat-based stock — check the individual product page.
The Complete Guide to Breakfast Burrito Sauce
The best breakfast burrito sauce starts with one thing: real Hatch green chile. Not jalapeño, not anaheim, not tomatillo salsa verde — roasted chile from the Hatch Valley, smothered over the top or stuffed inside with eggs, potatoes, cheese, and your choice of meat. Every sauce and salsa in this collection is jarred, shelf-stable, and built on chile we grow.
Smothered vs. Stuffed
Smothered burritos — green chile sauce poured over the top — call for our pourable green chile sauces. Stuffed burritos — chile inside the wrap — call for our chunkier roasted green chile or salsas. Most New Mexicans do both: stuffed, then smothered, then a little salsa on the side.
Green Chile Sauce
The default breakfast-burrito sauce. Roasted Hatch green chile, bright and smoky, thin enough to pour and coat eggs without drowning them. If you grew up calling it “green chile sauce,” this is it — the best sauce for breakfast burritos, hands down.
Breakfast Burrito Salsa
Want texture and a fresher bite? A Hatch green chile salsa doubles as the best salsa for breakfast burritos — chunky enough to spoon inside, bright enough to serve on the side as a dipping sauce. It works on breakfast tacos, too.
Red & Christmas
For chorizo, carne adovada, or anyone who likes it earthier, reach for Hatch red chile sauce. Order it “Christmas” — red and green together — and you have the most New Mexican breakfast plate there is.
Pick by Your Eggs
- Scrambled or over-easy: pourable green chile sauce — coats without overwhelming.
- Fried or huevos rancheros: salsa or ranchero blend — chunkier, brighter.
- With chorizo or carne adovada: red chile sauce — earthier, matches the meat.
Heat: our breakfast sauces run mild to hot, with the heat level marked on every jar — so you can match the table, from kids to chile-heads.
Why Hatch Beats Store-Bought
Most grocery-store burrito hot sauce is built on generic peppers and tomato. Ours is built on actual Hatch Valley chile and tastes like it — roasted, layered, unmistakably New Mexican. For ideas, see our breakfast burritos with roasted Hatch green chile recipe.
