The chiles are grown on local farms in the Hatch Valley of southwestern New Mexico’s Rio Grande region.

There’s so many different ways to enjoy these chiles, but many people enjoy using them in salsas, pork, enchiladas, burgers, chile rellenos and more!
To roast chiles at home, Fry’s recommends following these instructions:
- Grill: Place the chiles directly onto a hot grill. When the bottoms begin to turn black, charred or blistered, use tongs to turn the chiles over and repeat on the other side.
- Stovetop: Hold chiles over your stove’s gas flame with a long fork or tongs while roasting on all sides.
- Oven: Place chiles under the broiler. When they blacken, turn chiles over and roast the other side.
If you can’t make it this weekend, no worries! Fry’s will be roasting chiles every weekend until September 14.
