The Mosco Chile Pepper is a delicious meaty Annuum variety developed in Pueblo, Colorado over a number of years using selective breeding, and is now considered the official pepper of the state of Colorado! This is a larger version of the Mirasol chile that you won't regret growing.
These pepper plants grow up to around 2-1/2 feet tall, growing much faster in high elevation and short/dry climates. You'll see these pods grow up to 5-8" long with thick walls and smooth skin, ripening from a green to a bright red color at maturity.
Mosco Chiles have a nice medium heat with a unique sweet flavor that makes for one amazing red chile sauce. These thick-walled peppers make it easy to roast, grill, or even dry into a nice mild chili powder.
