Big Jim Pepper Seeds for Roasting and Salsa

Cultivate the Big Jim Pepper, a time-tested New Mexico heritage seed that consistently delivers exceptionally long pods with generous yields. Each fruit offers a balanced sweet and citrusy flavor alongside a mild to moderate warmth of 1,500 to 2,500 Scoville units, making it approachable for home cooks who want genuine pepper taste without excessive spice.

The substantial, meaty walls hold their structure beautifully, making these peppers especially suited for roasting over an open flame until the skins blister and unlock a deeper, smoky character. Gardeners also prize this cultivar for crafting lively fresh salsas and hearty stuffed pepper preparations that stand up to high-heat cooking methods while retaining juiciness.
