    Ingredients

    Roasted Red Bell Pepper

    Red Bell Peppers are a sweet and mild variety of the capsicum family that are used world wide for their fresh flavor, vibrant color and sturdy nature. Native to Mexico and South America, the seeds of these peppers were brought to Spain in 1493, where they quickly spread to European, African and Asian countries. China is now the largest producer of these peppers.

    While they are a member of the Capsiucum annuum family, Red Bell Peppers do not produce significant amounts of capsaicin, the substance that contributes the heat associated with other peppers. The “bell” in the name refers to the general shape of the peppers when full grown. The roasting process brings out the fiery, authentic flavor of the pepper.

  • Named “pepper” by Columbus, who attributed their flavor to that of the black peppercorns. They, in fact, have no relation and were originally named “pimiento”.

  • Cultivated for over 9,000 years

  • Grows in a variety of other colors

  • Classic recipe

    Three-Pepper Tailgate Chili

    Some things get better with age, and this chili is one of them. Made with three types of dried peppers— roasted diced red bell, diced green bell and smoky diced brown chipotle — its flavor develops even further in the refrigerator. So, feel free to make it ahead and reheat it the next day.
