I like anything with pork fat and onions. Is that a green bell pepper or a spicy pepper?

[cat lover]

I used a sweet green pepper, but I don't know why you couldn't use a hot one.

[DeBora4BobbyL]

Thanks for clarifying. In NM pepper can mean anything and it usually isn't sweet. lol

[cat lover]

Didn't think about that! LOL

[DeBora4BobbyL]

I usually say bell pepper or sweet pepper for the kind that you was talking about. I cook with several types of peppers, but jalapenos are my favorite.

Have you ever used habenoro (sp)? My DS #2 loves them , but I can't eat them; too hot for me! LOL

Habanero chiles are very, very hot! They are okay, but I like chiles that enable me to still taste the flavor of the food. lol But, they are sold everywhere here. I believe chile peppers are the largest growing crop in NM. I don't know about other places, but in NM, you buy your bags of chiles inside the store, and then there's a place outside that, for a price, will put them in a huge roaster and roast them for you. At least that's the way it is in Las Cruces, which is near Mexico.

Oh that would be so nice to be able to buy a bag and have someone roast them right there on the spot!

The people who are usually lined up for them are either Mexican, Mexican-American, or a similar culture.
