Introducing Chipotle Meco chiles, a premium ingredient widely used in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisines. These smoked jalapenos bring a unique depth of flavor to various dishes, making them a favorite among culinary enthusiasts and professional chefs alike. Chipotle Meco chiles are derived from mature jalapenos of the Capsicum annuum species.

Unlike regular chipotles, Meco chiles are larger, firmer, and have a distinctive grayish-tan color. They undergo an extended drying process on the bush, allowing them to develop a rich, deep red hue before being harvested. This traditional method enhances their flavor profile and provides a robust smoky taste that elevates your culinary creations.

Key Features: Smoked for twice as long as Morita chipotles, resulting in a richer, more intense flavor. Considered a medium heat chili, with Scoville Heat Units (SHU) ranging from 5,000 to 10,000. Features a unique smoky flavor combined with a slightly spicy, grassy fruitiness. Holds up well against stronger flavors, making it versatile for various recipes.

Available in a convenient 10-pound size, ideal for both home cooks and commercial kitchens. Produced by Morel Distribution Company, known for high-quality ingredients.
