One Man’s Recipe for Pueblo Green Chile



How to Make Pueblo Green Chile

Update: I won first place in the Non-Commercial Green Chile competition at the 2023 Pueblo Chile and Frijoles Festival sponsored by the Greater Pueblo Chamber of Commerce. This is not that particular recipe, but rather an evolution of this recipe. I will be making a new video for the award-winning Green Chile recipe.

  1. This looks delicious! I'm from Pueblo and you made it just like my family does except we didn't use chicken stock. I was taught to use water. I'm sure the chicken stock is amazing. I miss Pueblo chili. The chili doesn't taste the same where I am now. :0(

  2. I'm from pueblo & make it almost the same, except I use fresh tomatoes & I just dice them up, I also put onions in it. Just a ?… why did you bake it?

  3. This is the perfect sort of recipe to cook in a Crock Pot.

    Brown the meat with the onions and dump everything together and cook 4-5 on high or 68 hours on low.

    DONE…..

  4. Looks like diced pork from our local butchers… DoubleJ or Franks. Loveit. Thanks Brad Bowers.

  5. I'm from pueblo, I love the chili there. It isn't the same where I currently live. I miss chili soooo much. I never tried making it with pureed tomatoes though. It looks really good.

  6. I have bought roasted Pueblo Green Chile in Longmont Colorado, it is very hot! So depending on the dish and your heat tolerance, you may have to blend in a milder Hatch Green Chilie

  7. I live just outside Denver and the way I was taught to make green chili is so different then all the Colorado green chili you tube videos I’ve watched. My husbands family comes from Spain and I know it’s obviously going to be different, but the way my chili tastes and Mexican restaurants in Colorado I been to taste extremely similar. The way I was taught was fry the port or meat of choice then in the same sauté pan get pan really hot and add some oil about a quarter cup to half cup. get two big heaps of flour and stir the oil and flour until it gets dark dark brown next add the diced chili’s into the flour mix still on high and just let in fry for a few minuets. Next add 3-4 cups water and let it come to a boil add salt pepper garlic little cumin and some chicken stock cubes you can add some tomatoes. Once it starts to boil cover the pan and let it simmer at least 30min. You can take the port out of the pan before frying the flour so it doesn’t over cook. I differently want to try cooking it your way this weekend

  8. Hatch is actually not a chilli. It's a brand and happens to be the Capital city for growing chilis in the USA.

  9. No water, add salt and garlic, cook the meet longer after you add the flour, brown the flour, should take 5 minutes. Re-season after adding all the water, not fucking chicken stock. But this is only coming from a recipe thats at least 140 years old. Chicken stock, omg you gringo, lol. Might as well out corn in it too.

  10. Being from Pueblo and now in Montana… they don't know what green chili is up here…. this is the video I show them to explain it!

  11. I've seen several recipes add cumin or even chili powder 😭 I can't seem to find the right one. I'm looking for one that I used to get at the old plaza Cafe or Bev's in pueblo I think they have it at country kitchen too. I love green Chile, I first tasted it after moving to Pueblo when I was a child and my grandfather would take us to the local cafes to eat and chat. Sloppers were my fav. So if this recipe will turn out like the green Chile I've tasted in pueblo I'll definitely have to try it. ❤️

  12. I moved home to Michigan from Denver. Cannot get green chili for green chili cheese fries. I will be trying this recipe

  13. I made this for dinner tonight and my husband LOVED it! He made sure to keep the leftovers for his lunch tomorrow.
