***THIS IS A PRE-ORDER FOR THE 2022 CROP OF FRESH HATCH GREEN CHILE. THESE PRE-ORDERS WILL NOT BEGIN SHIPPING UNTIL THE HARVEST BEGINS IN JULY/AUGUST. PLEASE READ ALL WARNINGS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH YOUR ORDER.***
Big Jim and Charger are our famous Medium heat varieties. Both are great for rellenos, as they are the largest and most meaty pods. These varieties have somewhat inconsistent heat levels from pod to pod and from year to year, so you get a natural variety of spiciness. If you're looking for a big kick of spice, then we recommend you opt for our Hot (Sandia/G76) or X-Hot (Lumbre) rather than our medium.
Medium (Big Jim/Charger) pods can grow between 8 and 14 inches in length. They can vary on the scoville scale from 500-3,500 SHU. We offer 5, 10, and 25 pound boxes. 25lb boxes are enough for one or two people for a full year, while a 10lb box might only last a few months. Our 5lb box makes for a great gift and ships for free!
