Colorado Green Chile: Giadone Pueblo Chile Seeds
Both of our Pueblo Chiles have a slightly different flavor from the New Mexican Hatch chile varieties - many Coloradans say they taste better than Hatch, but we really think both Hatch chile and Pueblo Chile taste amazing, they're just different. Comparing the two is like comparing jalapeños to serraños. We love them both. 
Mirasol Giadone Pueblo Hot Chile Seeds - Authentic from Colorado
You can add Colorado Pueblo Chile to lots of dishes just like Hatch Chile, they tend to have thicker walls than Hatch chile varieties, making them very easy to roast and peel. 


Check out our seeds for our two Pueblo Chile varieties:  the tasty Pueblo Mosco Chile (shown above) and the spicier sister, the Pueblo Giadone Chile.
