About Big Jim

This vigorous pepper variety produces exceptionally large pods, often reaching up to a foot in length, ideal for stuffing, grilling, and roasting. It typically offers a medium heat (1,500-2,500 SHU), which is milder than an average jalapeño, though improved cultivars can be spicier (up to 9,000 SHU) with thicker flesh and a richer, sweeter flavor. Starting green and maturing to a bold red, these versatile peppers are perfect for chiles rellenos and traditional Southwestern dishes, originating from the Chile Pepper Institute in New Mexico.
