"Hatch is the generic, Pueblo is the brand". LOL!!! I'm from Oregon, and Hatch green chile is everywhere. Last fall, chile roasters could be found in parking lots in Portland, with signs that read "authentic New Mexico Hatch green chile" and "our chile is not from Colorado". Say it enough Colorado, and it still won't be true.
So you haven’t even tried both and you’re talking?? That’s simply because New Mexico has nothing else and they put a lot of money into putting themselves on the map over everything. Including hatch Chiles. Colorado is the exact same way. The Colorado chile came from Hispanic families that have been there since it was Mexico. Independent of whatever Nm is doing. Pueblo Chiles have a greater flavor profile and spicier. Colorado is for purists. NM adds all sorts of crap, potato’s, lemon, rotel. 😂 in Colorado everyone family has a different recipe and flavor without adding any of that other stuff.
@@ravenstealth not really seeing as how NM chile seeds originally were used to grown chilies in California because NM were the originators, not Colorado.
Roberta, Hatch Chile is everywhere. Hatch chile is like McDonald's hamburgers. There's a McDonald's everywhere, but they're not the best hamburgers. Same with Hatch chile. It's everywhere but it sucks!

Alright, it was funny at first but come on guys, I have eaten your chile. It really is like comparing apples to oranges. Like one commenter said; they are meatier but they taste like they did not ripen right,......like the sweet buttery heat got dulled, yet it is crisp! I don't fancy the trade off personally as I was born in New Mexico and my first pacifier was a chile pod. The dry heat is what makes a New Mexico chile ripen right! If you wanna mess with the best, at least try your best before you talk shit. Just saying!
@@atypicalpinetree4212 yet the chile still sucks! lol! NM, CO and AZ are all dry but they are different types of dry weather from one another. The land of enchantment just has a magic that the chile pepper must have to create that buttery note in the flavor.

I was born in Pueblo, My Moms family is from Las Vegas NM (Spanish primary), My fathers are from Mexico. I have been taught by both of my grandmas how to prepare pork green chili. Both the Pueblo and the NM (Hatch) Varity. Both have a unique flavor profile (mostly soil differences). I left Pueblo at the age of 4 (1974) and grew up in a small town called Chambersburg PA, I call it home. So, what I am getting at is both Pueblo and Hatch Chile are unique, and I love them both. Pueblo is more rustic and usually hotter; Hatch is more abundant where I now call home now Alabama. So, I love both and will support them all. Good is just good and educating my friends and coworkers on what green chili is make me happy. I am a retired US Army UH-60 Pilot. Love my green Chili.
IDK about Colorado, but NM chile is king. It has a blend of flavors that make it uniquely Southwestern. It's not Mexican chile and that's ok. There's plenty of chiles to go around and taste!

Colorado can never compete with New Mexico on the chili game🌶️ Go to Denver you can't find chili. Come to New Mexico and is in every store and restart every where....
In 2000, the New Mexico Trucks were bringing in Chile from Hatch. Now all the Super Markets have come to know Hatch, yet there are many that don't know the difference from an Anaheim and Hatch. Mellisa got in the game charging 20.00 for a sandwich bag of salsa. But much lower priced peppers can be found and you can make your own salsa, if you know your way around the kitchen. Colorado seems to be something new to me. If they are growing a tasty chili they want to call the best, all the power to them. It is the soil & climate that makes the difference. I hear Pueblo is growing Poblano too. All the power to Colorado. I'll just keep eating chilies.
They’re talking about one type of pepper in Colorado...go down to NMSU and visit the Chile Pepper Institute and you’ll see all the different types of peppers..you can find many edible ornamental peppers that stick upwards as well...but competition is healthy. The best Pueblo chile I’ve ever had was grown at the base of the Sandia Mountains in Albuquerque. Lol. So I don’t know Colorado, might be in over your heads in this one.
those goofs up north put flour rue into their green chile and cook it into a fuckin gravy you barely get any chile on your food of it just fuckin gravy sauce
There was no war. New Mexico dry heat is perfect for Chile. Colorado been smokeing their green Chile to much to think they were ever in a comp with us. 😂😂😂😂
DJR5280 good Chile isn’t grown in Albuquerque smart guy. South Central New Mexico is where the best Chile. Anywhere else has crappy Chile. I’ve been there and tried em. Big difference.
I've lived all my life (79 years) in Arizona. Have worked extensively in New Mexico. Always tried to be there in August for the chili harvest. Would buy least one 20 pound bag of them and take them home to Phoenix. Roasted, stemmed and peeled chilis are in my freezer all year long. Nothing beats that beautiful Hatch valley where the Rio Grande flows southward. The soil for growing can't be beat west of the Mississippi. Green chili fields for as far as you can see along Hwy 25. Then the fields change To Pecan orchards as you near Las Cruces all the way to El Paso. In August the little town of Hatch NM comes alive like Sturgis South Dakota during bike week. Note: If you travel Southward from Hatch to Las Cruses there is a great Mexican food restaurant in the little dusty historic town of Mesilla, just across the River from Las Cruces. "La Posta" is historical and has been there since the late 1800's when it was a stage stop. The original adobe walls surround the building. Mesilla was the territorial capital of both Arizona and New Mexico before they were divided into two separate states. A block down the street from La Posta is the site of the old court house where Billy the kid was sentenced to hang but escaped. Now a gift shop.
Wow. This was on my feed. Green Chile is fine.. But home grown jalapeno? So delicious! I like Hatch Chile and okay with Anaheim but I never heard of pueblo chile. I may try it but I never see it in NM. Next time I'm in Denver, they better have some Green Chile, normally, it's never on the menu.
Never tried Colorado chili. I was born in Carlsbad N.M. and live in N.E. Az. Flavor is everything! I'll try the Colorado chili because I want to know. Unseating Hatch N.M. chili is a tall order because it's the king of green chili!. I'm competing in a green chili competition tomorrow at work. It's an annual event where we honor our veterans at the power plant where I work. Very stiff competition but my specialty is green chili/onion cornbread. My great Grandmothers cornbread recipe modified by me with green chili and onions. NO SUGAR...that's cake. This cornbread is dense with a crusty bottom and edges! Okie style all the way and made with buttermilk.
Pioneer woman has a PHENOMENAL recipe for cast iron skillet cornbread. I have made it many times as is or tweak it to add things i like, corn, bacon, cheese, peppers, etc.
Y’all ever here anybody besides people from Colorado say, “ I bought some Colorado green Chili it’s the best “ hell nah people have hatch chili shipped from all over the world. Stay in your lane hitas... I’ll buy weed from you tho😂
I lived in Colorado for 28 years But I spent my childhood in New Mexico Colorado is a better state in many ways Green Chile is not one of those ways New Mexico is Green Chile
Colorado has a type of chilli that no one can get no where else. Becauae there in high elevation so it can effect the chilli pepper. As i'm a Coloradian myself and I have tried y'all peppers it tastes like crap. NM will no longer become the chilli state. Chilli state for Colorado!
When are you gonna become the chili state still waiting you have one little town that loves Chile in colorado compared to new Mexico wheres its every town
@@evachavez8893 That's no where new what I was talking about. I was talking about how you couldn't get peppers that had that mile high taste to it. Plus that's mine opinion about NM chili and you can't change shit about that.
My whole families from Deming New Mexico just a half hour south of hatch. And I have to say hatch chili will always be my favorite. Especially the Extra extra hot
Colorado should focus their effort on what they're go at..................... Skiing. There's no way in hell Colorado out does New Mexico in the chili world!
The chile in Colorado is just as good, and definitely hotter than New Mexico. However, the food they make with it is awful compared to NM. New Mexicans should be proud of that. The popularity of NM chile is going to create havoc for NM residents. It's going to cause the prices to go up, and the quality to go down. All the best crop will go to wholesalers that will pay a premium, and that will all go to restaurants and retail stores around the country. Hatch chiles may be the most popular, but there's other varieties that are more sought after because many people believe they are superior to hatch. Chimayo, Estaceno, Khe-wa, Jemez, Escondida, all Northern varieties of Chile, grown in a higher altitude (more sun, cooler nights) than Hatch. So before Hatch fans go crazy on Colorado, they should reconcile why they don't even hold the title for best chile in New Mexico.
Good post, but I havent seen any reason to say Colorado chile is hotter. I lived in Colorado 10 years, and have to go there for work multiple times per week. CO chile is different. better than not having chile, but different enough to make a regular recipe taste a little off... and don't get me started on what the average Coloradan thinks is a good recipe for staple dishes, lol. Jemez and 6-4 Heritage chiles are some of my favorites, as well as Big Jim for Renellos, due to their size and meatiness. Hatch Chile's main value to New Mexico is branding, unremarkable otherwise. (unless you are eating some of Colorado's 700-acre chile, in which case it's the competition!)
@@tannji5971 it's a pretty 'heated' debate. But it's a silly one also, since they are so closely related people can't tell the difference in blind taste tests. And let's be honest: the real difference is person cooking.
The difference is the soil. The New Mexico Rio Grande Valley soil is the Italian San Manzano soil. The effect is similar for green chile as for tomatoes. There is nothing Colorado can do to replicate New Mexico soil. Red or Green? New Mexico Christmas ♥️💚
the funny thing is no one talks about its history and how it became what it is. my family created this Chile "pueblo" aka Mosco and the history makes it more valuable then anything. you constantly hear the farmers take credit for the Chile my great uncle and cousin perfected and no one brings it up. its sad and ill make sure to change that! those farmers who get air time better remember where their family got seed from to do what they do now.
Lol you know the seeds u grow in pueblo are the seeds that came from Mexico to new mexico to colorado lol so that guy saying your trying to take who,we are in colo sorry but your trying to take who we are in new mexico ... You can grow it but dont say its all yours ..
Pueblo Chile is a much meatier and flavorful pepper. But everyone here is like "Hatch is best because everywhere has it" it's a supply issue as pointed out. 8000+ acres of new Mexico, vs 700 acres of Colorado. Consumers are switching over to pueblo Chile as the supply increases because it is a better pepper.
sure growing a chile in a more mild wetter climate will produce more. it also produces a mealy bland mild ass bell pepper of a green chile. you need a hot dry climate for chiles to really produce good flavor
If hatch chilie isn't grown in Hatch New Mexico is it still hatch chilie? If spirits are distilled in Kentucky but aged in Tennessee is it bourbon or whisky?
The answer is - only chile grown in and around Hatch, NM can be called Hatch chile. Chile grown anywhere else is green or red chile. Same thing with Chimayo red chile. If the pepper hasn't been grown near or in Chimayo - it can't be Chimayo red chile. And there is a huge difference in red chile. Once you eat Chimayo red, you can tell the difference from all other red chile.
its not even close , New Mexico Chile is the Cadillac of Chile, I'm willing to say Colorado is 2nd and that aint bad, but there is only one #1 and thats good ole Nuevo Mexico
Why is it that the Mexican restaurants that serve Green chili...are far superior to restaurants i in Albuquerque. Not even close.Talking about those in Denver.
@@andrewvigil2448 Theyr'e two completely different things(chili and chile). When you've been well acquainted to actual chile you won't misspell it and misspelling is the number one indicator that someone has no idea what they're talking about, especially when they also say things like, "it's a verde that ain't no chili". Yep, your'e right, we don't grow chili in New Mexico, nor do we serve verde.
Do you even have the remotest clue that the word "verde" means "green" in Spanish? So, chile verde is simply - green chile. So, yes - New Mexico has both chile verde and chile rojo.
Tried both, more than once at various vendors. Pueblo is a great place to get shot, robbed or learn Spanish. NM is a great place to crap fire and get lost in hell.
And I roll my eyes at people who think multiple types of chile aren't grown in New Mexico. You just have to know where they're grown and what time during the year they're picked.
The tiny town of Hatch, New Mexico alone, would crush all of Colorado...lol.

I don't think Colorado knows the customs and several ways of cooking it. Colorado is kinda new to it
new to it no. different then yours. yes, but much better
those goofs up north put flour rue into their green chile and cook it into a fuckin gravy you barely get any chile on your food of it just fuckin gravy sauce
New Mexico is the chili capital of the world and always be like that. 🇺🇸🌶️🇺🇸
There was no war. New Mexico dry heat is perfect for Chile. Colorado been smokeing their green Chile to much to think they were ever in a comp with us. 😂😂😂😂
New Mexico dry heat ? LOL. Denver and the front range have the same dry heat. Pueblo might actually be hotter than Albuquerque though.
DJR5280 good Chile isn’t grown in Albuquerque smart guy. South Central New Mexico is where the best Chile. Anywhere else has crappy Chile. I’ve been there and tried em. Big difference.
@@RoccHoundBeatz You're right. It's not grown in Albuquerque. I assumed it was. Good Chile but nor the best.
NM has more crackheads
@@LobstaSauca crack is a thing a of the past. More like methheads and heroin addicts.
I've lived all my life (79 years) in Arizona. Have worked extensively in New Mexico. Always tried to be there in August for the chili harvest. Would buy least one 20 pound bag of them and take them home to Phoenix. Roasted, stemmed and peeled chilis are in my freezer all year long. Nothing beats that beautiful Hatch valley where the Rio Grande flows southward. The soil for growing can't be beat west of the Mississippi. Green chili fields for as far as you can see along Hwy 25. Then the fields change To Pecan orchards as you near Las Cruces all the way to El Paso. In August the little town of Hatch NM comes alive like Sturgis South Dakota during bike week. Note: If you travel Southward from Hatch to Las Cruses there is a great Mexican food restaurant in the little dusty historic town of Mesilla, just across the River from Las Cruces. "La Posta" is historical and has been there since the late 1800's when it was a stage stop. The original adobe walls surround the building. Mesilla was the territorial capital of both Arizona and New Mexico before they were divided into two separate states. A block down the street from La Posta is the site of the old court house where Billy the kid was sentenced to hang but escaped. Now a gift shop.
I hate these "wars" honestly. Anaheim, Hatch, Pueblo... give them all to me. I will love them equally.
Wow. This was on my feed. Green Chile is fine.. But home grown jalapeno? So delicious! I like Hatch Chile and okay with Anaheim but I never heard of pueblo chile. I may try it but I never see it in NM. Next time I'm in Denver, they better have some Green Chile, normally, it's never on the menu.
Then you're not going to the right restaurants. If the restaurant is truly local, then they'll always have Green Chile on there
Never tried Colorado chili. I was born in Carlsbad N.M. and live in N.E. Az. Flavor is everything! I'll try the Colorado chili because I want to know. Unseating Hatch N.M. chili is a tall order because it's the king of green chili!. I'm competing in a green chili competition tomorrow at work. It's an annual event where we honor our veterans at the power plant where I work. Very stiff competition but my specialty is green chili/onion cornbread. My great Grandmothers cornbread recipe modified by me with green chili and onions. NO SUGAR...that's cake. This cornbread is dense with a crusty bottom and edges! Okie style all the way and made with buttermilk.
Pioneer woman has a PHENOMENAL recipe for cast iron skillet cornbread. I have made it many times as is or tweak it to add things i like, corn, bacon, cheese, peppers, etc.
Yoooo my mom was born and raised in Carlsbad🤙🏽
Lmao. There isn’t a competition between Colorado and NM. Lmao what 😂😂😂
It even says it on our license plate chili capital of the world, stick to grown weed Colorado
colorado you grow the weed well grow the chile
@Eva Chavez dank
how about we grow chile weed
crissan arimas straight up foo
It's not a war. NM wins
Well...we also have those thousands of nuclear weapons stored at the Kirtland Underground Munitions Storage Complex...just in case...
Y’all ever here anybody besides people from Colorado say, “ I bought some Colorado green Chili it’s the best “ hell nah people have hatch chili shipped from all over the world. Stay in your lane hitas... I’ll buy weed from you tho😂
New Mexico is tops
You go online and look for Green chile options, almost all of them are Hatch. Pueblo chiles have not made the marketing scene.
It isn't a war. NM is world renowned.
What rivalry? Hatch chilis have a special place in my heart!
I lived in Colorado for 28 years
But I spent my childhood in New Mexico
Colorado is a better state in many ways
Green Chile is not one of those ways
New Mexico is Green Chile
Colorado has a type of chilli that no one can get no where else. Becauae there in high elevation so it can effect the chilli pepper. As i'm a Coloradian myself and I have tried y'all peppers it tastes like crap. NM will no longer become the chilli state. Chilli state for Colorado!
When are you gonna become the chili state still waiting you have one little town that loves Chile in colorado compared to new Mexico wheres its every town
WoLfGolden hell no!!!
@@evachavez8893 That's no where new what I was talking about. I was talking about how you couldn't get peppers that had that mile high taste to it. Plus that's mine opinion about NM chili and you can't change shit about that.
@@wolfgolden1789 you may have chili but we got chille
Your face looks like crap
My whole families from Deming New Mexico just a half hour south of hatch. And I have to say hatch chili will always be my favorite. Especially the Extra extra hot
0:52 when your taking a madd shyt
Hatch NM is the chile capital sooooo yall colorado chile is just mild come down to hatch and try ms.june and sombre
Colorado should focus their effort on what they're go at.....................
Skiing. There's no way in hell Colorado out does New Mexico in the chili world!
To be honest, I have lots of both and I like both. I will eat both as much as its available. Both are so good. And I prefer it Christmas.
Pueblo people are so cute... Maybe someday 😉
I'm from Pueblo and my wife is from Hatch. She's the cute one. Her chile sucks though compared to ours lmao
The chile in Colorado is just as good, and definitely hotter than New Mexico. However, the food they make with it is awful compared to NM. New Mexicans should be proud of that. The popularity of NM chile is going to create havoc for NM residents. It's going to cause the prices to go up, and the quality to go down. All the best crop will go to wholesalers that will pay a premium, and that will all go to restaurants and retail stores around the country. Hatch chiles may be the most popular, but there's other varieties that are more sought after because many people believe they are superior to hatch. Chimayo, Estaceno, Khe-wa, Jemez, Escondida, all Northern varieties of Chile, grown in a higher altitude (more sun, cooler nights) than Hatch. So before Hatch fans go crazy on Colorado, they should reconcile why they don't even hold the title for best chile in New Mexico.
Good post, but I havent seen any reason to say Colorado chile is hotter. I lived in Colorado 10 years, and have to go there for work multiple times per week. CO chile is different. better than not having chile, but different enough to make a regular recipe taste a little off... and don't get me started on what the average Coloradan thinks is a good recipe for staple dishes, lol. Jemez and 6-4 Heritage chiles are some of my favorites, as well as Big Jim for Renellos, due to their size and meatiness. Hatch Chile's main value to New Mexico is branding, unremarkable otherwise. (unless you are eating some of Colorado's 700-acre chile, in which case it's the competition!)
@@tannji5971 it's a pretty 'heated' debate. But it's a silly one also, since they are so closely related people can't tell the difference in blind taste tests. And let's be honest: the real difference is person cooking.
The difference is the soil. The New Mexico Rio Grande Valley soil is the Italian San Manzano soil. The effect is similar for green chile as for tomatoes. There is nothing Colorado can do to replicate New Mexico soil. Red or Green? New Mexico Christmas ♥️💚
HATCH CHILI STILL AND ALWAYS WILL BE CHILI CAPITAL OF THE WORLD!
I agree, but at least spell it “chile.” Chili is that Texas nonsense.
Mario Castillo From Colorado - Hatch Chili is what I buy and use in my house. But I still like to grow my own too.
the funny thing is no one talks about its history and how it became what it is. my family created this Chile "pueblo" aka Mosco and the history makes it more valuable then anything. you constantly hear the farmers take credit for the Chile my great uncle and cousin perfected and no one brings it up. its sad and ill make sure to change that! those farmers who get air time better remember where their family got seed from to do what they do now.
Mexico green chili is the best I’m from Colorado but my family is from Mexico so my Green Chili recipe I cook comes from Mexico 🇲🇽 b
Willing to share?
I've worked in Las Cruces 2008 and i know that Hatch Chile's Are the best Hands up.
"war" lol
I have BOTH Hatch chiles and Pueblo chiles in my freezer!
When it comes to chile, neutrality is the only correct answer.
Pueblo Colorado is using hybrids.
I've been saying this for 40 years now.
well since we get most our chili from Mexico...yeah..... PUEBLO GREEN CHILI IS THE BEST!!!! Just saying, but New Mexico your chili is outstanding!!!
Lol you know the seeds u grow in pueblo are the seeds that came from Mexico to new mexico to colorado lol so that guy saying your trying to take who,we are in colo sorry but your trying to take who we are in new mexico ... You can grow it but dont say its all yours ..
Can I be of help? I want to do a Hydroponic farm with native New Mexico Chiles when I finish my studies of Horticulture in NMSU.
Pueblo Chile is a much meatier and flavorful pepper. But everyone here is like "Hatch is best because everywhere has it" it's a supply issue as pointed out. 8000+ acres of new Mexico, vs 700 acres of Colorado. Consumers are switching over to pueblo Chile as the supply increases because it is a better pepper.
sure growing a chile in a more mild wetter climate will produce more. it also produces a mealy bland mild ass bell pepper of a green chile. you need a hot dry climate for chiles to really produce good flavor
Begun the chili wars have!
I can't wait to see in the stores in the Silicon Valley... I love it!
It’s all good. I’m cooking with Peruvian chile today. If you want me to use your chile, put it in the US Chef’Store in my neighborhood.
El chile de Nuevo México es el mejor.
The Answer is red with no garnish and a side of tortillas.
How many acres in Texas grow chili?
Colorado has no chili claim New Mexico is the best
If hatch chilie isn't grown in Hatch New Mexico is it still hatch chilie? If spirits are distilled in Kentucky but aged in Tennessee is it bourbon or whisky?
spencer allen nope
The answer is - only chile grown in and around Hatch, NM can be called Hatch chile. Chile grown anywhere else is green or red chile. Same thing with Chimayo red chile. If the pepper hasn't been grown near or in Chimayo - it can't be Chimayo red chile. And there is a huge difference in red chile. Once you eat Chimayo red, you can tell the difference from all other red chile.
its not even close , New Mexico Chile is the Cadillac of Chile, I'm willing to say Colorado is 2nd and that aint bad, but there is only one #1 and thats good ole Nuevo Mexico
I wonder how Mexico feels about all this
This was made in new mexico 🤣🤣 bro we just make it better perfection comes with trial and error yes we did it right. 🤣🤣
What war our Chile is better
Why is it that the Mexican restaurants that serve Green chili...are far superior to restaurants i in Albuquerque. Not even close.Talking about those in Denver.
New Mexico’s green chili is a verde 🤣 that ain’t no chili, who are they trying to fool 💀
A verde? Are you serious? It's spelled CHILE not CHILI.. Another indication that you have no clue what you are talking about.
@@mededmoon6265 wow I made a spelling error that can easily be fixed you really wasted your time to tell me that 😂💀
@@andrewvigil2448 Theyr'e two completely different things(chili and chile). When you've been well acquainted to actual chile you won't misspell it and misspelling is the number one indicator that someone has no idea what they're talking about, especially when they also say things like, "it's a verde that ain't no chili". Yep, your'e right, we don't grow chili in New Mexico, nor do we serve verde.
Do you even have the remotest clue that the word "verde" means "green" in Spanish? So, chile verde is simply - green chile. So, yes - New Mexico has both chile verde and chile rojo.
War? There's no comparison to Hatch New Mexico chilie.
Tried both, more than once at various vendors.
Pueblo is a great place to get shot, robbed or learn Spanish. NM is a great place to crap fire and get lost in hell.
Pueblo chile is okay, and it's important to eat your vegetables, but NM chile is the stuff I want. Pueblo chile just doesn't taste as good.
Pueblo chile is actually NuMex Mirasol peppers (a New Mexican variety), but grown outside of recommended conditions.
It is definitely not the chile capital of the world….mexico has them both faded hands down
That would be China. But they just grow the most; they don't revolve their entire culture around it like they do in NM.
What war? It's not even a competition 😂 Hatch is king
As a Mexican I roll my eyes everytime I see "New Mexico the Chile capital of the world" lol y'all grow one Chile
And I roll my eyes at people who think multiple types of chile aren't grown in New Mexico. You just have to know where they're grown and what time during the year they're picked.
ONLY ONE CHILE. IT'S CALLED HATCH NEW MEXICAN GREEN CHILE! Anything else is a joke!
It doesn’t compare 😂💀😂💀
