There’s no debate. New Mexico has been growing chiles for 500 years and knows how to cook them. All green chiles are good but if they’re so good from Pueblo, CO. (which I’m sure they are) why do they cook them with so much flour, tomato and onions? Old school New Mexicans like their chile with very little help. Sure we have a lot of recipes adorned with everything but the best green chile is roasted with a touch of salt and garlic at the most. I’m sure the Colorado “gringo” chile is good like that too. Gringos who were once too weak for the heat now think in their false machismo that it’s all about the heat, wrong again gringos. By the way I’m a gringo born in New Mexico and lived in Colorado. I love them both but just over 30 years ago couldn’t find a green chile there. They didn’t even know what a green chile was. Now compare that to 500 years of New Mexican culture!!!
Love the debate and the good natured in-between-states battle! Of course, the Hatch Valley in NM has the specific dirt and climate to grow the ultimate and original Hatch Chiles. So....you know where my taste-buds belong. "The Hatch Chile was a clear winner" nice! That's because the particulars of the are result in a unique version of the pepper. Colorado: don't get all bent out of shape. It's all good.
The only people who think the Hatch chiles are better are people who prefer a milder chile, which is a lot of people, and people FROM New Mexico. And also because Hatch chiles are more extensively farmed making them available in a much broader area. As Pueblo chiles become more widely available, I think you will begin to see a clear trend toward the Pueblo chile because it's taste and heat are better suited for green chile and similar recipes. This "taste test" was laughable. No way any serious fan of chiles would choose a Hatch chile over a Pueblo except, maybe, on a burger. Hatch chiles are well suited for pairing with burgers. But in a pinch I'd definitely use a Hatch chile if a Pueblo chile wasn't available. Not saying they are bad, they are just different. Not sure how those people couldn't tell the difference. They taste nothing alike, at all.

Left Dodge (Albuquerque) once I turned 24. A So Cal Senior now. ALL my family lives throughout the 'Land of Enchantment.' The secret to get Green Chile HOT? 🔥 Begin by watering plants regularly. Then just after the beginning of season STOP! (before a 1/3 way through) BARLEY water- just enough to survive. Those Chilies get ANGRY! Close to very end you can water regularly again. New Mexicans get off on suffering with watery eyes & running noses in unison when they eat. N.M. has grown Chile as an Art for generations that burns insanely. Heirloom Chilies exist that the public doesn't know about. Comparing both Chiles? Like comparing a Good French Cabernet to Snoop Dog's Red.
This is where you know people outside of Pueblo and South don't know what they're talking about. If you really want to try the Pueblo chili at its best, you need to go down to Gray's Coors tavern or the sunset and get a slopper.
New Mexico will always be chili capital of the world. Nothing better I Kno I live in Denver Colorado there was no chili 🌶️ only green peppers like jalapeno's 30 years ago my family is still in Denver. New Mexico chili 🌶️ in every store and restart and more. Keep trying Colorado you might get there some day with your hybrid chili plants. Up like Oriental plants. Thay at cool looking. But can't beat New Mexico chili 🌶️🇺🇸. You might be better than Anaheim California.
I want to try both of them. I love peppers of any kind. But what I don’t like is the whiny, pathetic voice of the lady reporter. Please don’t use her again.
The best New Mexican green and red chile is not from Hatch! It is from Los Lunas, Lemitar, Corrales, and Socorro areas. I don't get my green chile from Hatch., And NM chile comes in several varietals -- each with it's own "thickness", flavor profile, and of course , heat. So I do not know which "Hatch" chile they tested. My guess is if you put the Lumbre against that Mirisol, but they probably did not.
Bias test for bias results. NM is the France, champagne CO is using our centuries of cultivation to pick some of our strains to grow since climate is *similar. Doesn't mean they know alllll the insider tactics. Chile is easy to grow. To get a harvest and claim it's better than the motherland.... is foolish, silly, and just a childish thing to do. Born 505, now I call 970 home. No red chile to be found ANYWHERE! Best chile around here???? The stash I grow in my basement!!!! Lmmfao
Wrong. Blind taste tests PROVE the best is NM chill all day. You can't change public blind tests. There is no bias and the NM chili has been around hundreds of years longer.
What about the Red? Tested Chimayo, vs Pueblo Red. Both are awesome, but I kind of liked Pueblo better for the little sweetness. BTW Polis is not about Colorado, but about Boulder and Denver.
Lolol bro that's a horrible take, and makes me want to never try Pueblo red (which I've never seen in 7 years in CO).. if you want sweet red, make a mole with the heat and flavor of the best 505❤
Of course it's subjective. Anaheim chiles are also delicious and wonderful. El Rey farms also needs to be tested in this realm. Pueblos are a tad hotter, but it's not a bad heat but a welcoming one. Hatch red chiles are so fruity and delicious when fresh, but all of them are wonderful when prepared fresh. I personally think we need more testing, .

If you have to ask, you probably wont appreciate the truth. I love the fact that they polled a Colorado audience and Hatch still won. But that isnt the whole truth. The truth is that Hatch is mostly loved by "converts" to Green Chile, who only recently learned to spell Chile correctly. Who are frequently unaware that not only are there more varieties of NM Chile to sample, Hatch isnt a top pick for flavor, although its not bad, and certainly distingishable from the Mirasol you will probably find in the Pueblo area. Look, if you have joined the chile crowd, bless you! Just be aware, informed veterans will be touchy around you, and like wine, just because you love and grow green in Colorado, it will never be considered "Champaign".

ain't no one from nm even take yall serious
Good review! I've never, ever found a Chile that compares to Hatch Chiles. ROASTED is just insane by the way.
Totally!
I've came from California to New Mexico in 2008 just to visit a few months. I like to be a part of this debate and say Hatch is the Best.
You must have been living in the deep I.E. like baker and are crazy from the heat. 😂

@@TheRealDarkbreezeSo HOPELESSLY wrong!!👎👎👎
Hatch has no competition, Never did 🤣 best chili. That's why we are chili capital of the world. Colorado only grows weed
🤣Well, Colo tries, but no comparison in flavor.
Hatch obviously.
Of course brother
If you don't have or can't get Hatch, Pueblo will do in a pinch. But it has to be one helluva pinch.
I eat Hatch green chile's at least once a week!! Soooo good!!
How is this even a debate? Hatch is literally the chile capital of the world
Hatch on my vote
Hatch
Thank you for all we know in New Mexico USA 🌶️🇺🇸
No contest New Mexico Hatch....

NM taste better
How does this compare to Anaheim or Dixon peppers?
There's no comparison
El chile de Nuevo México es el mejor.
As a Californian I give it to Hatch, New Mexico shit is 🔥
New Mexico and Colorado need to stick together. My Friends in Arizona and Texas think "smothered " and red and green Chile is American nonsense.

If it's chili and not chile, then it ain't green chile for me! *New Mexicans know the difference ;)
Colorado wishes they could grow chile like New Mexico. 😂😂
New Mexico will always be chili capital of the world. Nothing better I Kno I live in Denver Colorado there was no chili 🌶️ only green peppers like jalapeno's 30 years ago my family is still in Denver.
New Mexico chili 🌶️ in every store and restart and more. Keep trying Colorado
you might get there some day with your hybrid chili plants. Up like Oriental plants.
Thay at cool looking. But can't beat New Mexico chili 🌶️🇺🇸.
You might be better than Anaheim California.
This post simply makes no sense and is not based in reality.
Dream on Colorado. You have RMNP but the peppers are better in the south.
I want to try both of them. I love peppers of any kind. But what I don’t like is the whiny, pathetic voice of the lady reporter. Please don’t use her again.

Trinidad Green Chili .
IYKYK 😉 special privilege batches.
Oh God, buffalo brown chili is way better.
Pueblo chiles are better. It has an earthier flavor. With hatch, something is missing

@@Rizzlerizethe test was done by Colorado people and hatch still won lol
Hatch has little to no flavor compared to pueblo chili's. Some might even say it just tastes like dirt, personally I wouldn't go that far.
HOW SILLY, WE KNOW IT'S HATCH.. DUHH!!
That broad is crazy
