The Hatch Big Jim pepper, scientifically known as *Capsicum annuum* 'NuMex Big Jim', is a popular cultivar of the New Mexico chile group. Developed at New Mexico State University, this impressive plant originates from the Hatch Valley in the United States. It produces high yields of large, thick-walled pods that can exceed 12 inches in length, making it one of the largest chile peppers ever recorded. The plant itself grows to about 2-3 feet tall and thrives in the unique climate of southern New Mexico.
Big Jim peppers offer a mild spice level, typically ranging from 500 to 3,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), though some variants reach up to 8,000 SHU; they are sweet and mildly hot when green, becoming slightly spicier as they ripen to red. Prized for their rich, earthy flavor when roasted, they are widely used in New Mexican cuisine for chile rellenos, green chile sauces, stews, salsas, and stuffing. Their size and thick flesh make them ideal for grilling and processing.
