Anyone have a good connection for Fresh Red Ripe Jalapenos in Phoenix or
Arizona for making Chipotles? I usually go to 2 or 3 Food City Hispanic
Markets around town and pick out the colored ones from the mountain of
Jalapenos but I would like to do a full box or bushel of red and ripe in
my
WSM smoker.

I think the reds are different variety of jalapenos, though green ones
will start to turn red as well. I can buy all-red jalapeno's here -
they're larger and have a lot of brown veins running around the
outside and are a darjerred than when the green ones turn red, which
makes me think theres a different variety that specifically turns red
sooner (and more consistently) than the greens.

My markets aren't that sophisticated and only have two varieties of
jalapeño; in stock or out of stock.
