Yes — our roasters connect to a standard 20 lb propane tank (the kind used for grills). The tank is not included. Most hardware stores carry them for $30–50.
Both roasters work in batches. The small holds 4–5 lbs of fresh chile at a time, the medium 8–10 — so a 25 lb sack runs about five loads on the small or three on the medium. For a family of four, the small is plenty.
Small: 12" diameter × 16" long barrel, 30 lbs, 4–5 lbs of chile per batch. Ships in a 24" × 19" × 19" box.
Medium: 16" diameter × 16" long barrel, 42 lbs, 8–10 lbs of chile per batch. Ships in a 24" × 25" × 17" box.
Both sit on a tabletop and both roast a batch in 3–5 minutes.
About 3–5 minutes per batch with full propane flow. Keep the cage turning the whole time so the chile chars evenly on all sides.
Every roaster is made to order — we build yours after you buy it. Allow about 2–4 weeks for the build, then 3–7 business days in transit. Smaller roasters go UPS Ground; larger ones may ship freight. We deliver to the lower 48 only, no PO boxes, and we'll send tracking when it's on the way.
Yes — during harvest season (mid-July through October), we ship 25 lb sacks of fresh Hatch green chile straight to your door for roasting. Your chile and your roaster ship separately, each with its own shipping cost.

Thank you, did not know what I was going to do since I moved from Colorado to Florida. You have graced me with a roaster, and I have done tomatillos as well.

The small table top roaster works great. I roasted 25 lbs yesterday, I did about 5 lb batches roast them, steam them, clean them then onto the next batch. It was just me so it took close to 5 hours. Yes I like my 5’s Maybe Hatch will send me a jar of 555. Love that earthy smoked flavor 😋

Ordered the roaster and 25 lb. Box of chili. Both arrived on time. Did four loads to roast the full box. In the freezer now for meals for the next year or so. It is amazing that the chilies were on the vine Wednesday, picked that day and shipped to Ohio. Received at door at noon. So from on the vine at Hatch, NM to roasted and in a freezer in Ohio in lest than 36 hours. Thanks.

The small table top roaster works great! Received the roaster in the afternoon along with my order of 25 lbs of green chile and finished roasting the next day. The roaster works better than the grill or broiler and is faster and does a better job. Then ordered 25 lbs of red. Thanks!

I ordered this roaster early this year in anticipation of roasting a whole box of fresh chiles when they became available in the fall. This is very well constructed, assembles quickly and will roast just about anything that you need to roast. Things like bell peppers, tomatoes, tomatillos, etc. Great product!

Well made and now we can order fresh green chile next year and roast it ourselves! We missed having it roasted after we moved from NM. And now we can once again enjoy the aroma of roasting Chile!

Recently received and used this Small Table Top Roaster and roasted some Red Hatch Chilis. The roaster worked well. I will advise that it may be good to sort the Chilis by size and roast them by size. I found that I over-roasted the smaller chilis while the larger ones were perfect.

I have to move to another state and I am worried about getting my Chile fix. So, i ordered this. We haven’t roasted anything in it yet because we are moving, but we did test it and it works really well. I love it.

I ordered this roaster because we live in Colorado and went to the Chili festival in Pueblo for the second year and purchased 2 bushels of peppers. I wanted to roast faster then my grill would plus I can roast more at a time. I am very happy with the roaster and look forward to roasting more peppers and other veggies.

Very easy set up. Very easy to use. Amazing end results! I highly recommend the small table top roaster. We used to do ours in the oven or use a kitchen hand burner. This is SO much easier and less messy and roasts the peppers just perfectly.

I bought the small one for my husband and me. We absolutely love it. Roasted chili’s in the evening with a cocktail and north breeze. I’ve bragged about it so much, I need two for Christmas gifts. Please let me know when you have more in stock.

My mother in laws family is from New Mexico. They have been roasting hatch Chile for decades. A lot of her family have either moved out of state (we live in california) or have passed away. I bought the small table top roaster as a surprise gift for her. She loved it ! It worked great ! Very well built ! The chilies roasted perfectly !

No — propane roasters are for outdoor use only. They produce open flame and exhaust. Always operate on a stable, non-flammable surface outdoors.
Heavy gloves for handling the hot cage, long sleeves, eye protection, and a spray bottle of water nearby just in case. Never roast in windy conditions — flames can be carried by wind.
Standard 1-year manufacturer warranty against defects. Tank, hose, and regulator are user-replaceable consumables.
The roaster is designed for chile but the flame works for bell peppers, eggplant, tomatoes — anything where you want flame-roasted skin to slip off easily.
Let it cool fully. Brush out ash and chile skins. Wipe down with a damp cloth (no soap on the inside of the firebox). Store dry. The cage rotates out for easy cleaning.
