At HellFire Farms, we grow some of the most intense peppers on the planet—but every pepper tells its own story. From mild beginnings to brutal heat, these varieties show the full spectrum of why we love spice. Here are a few of our favorites and why they’ve earned a place in our fields (and our hearts).
Red Jalapeños – A Classic With Soul
We’ll start with a pepper that isn’t about pain, but about passion. Red jalapeños may not top the Scoville charts, but they’re unforgettable. Their grassy, earthy flavor transforms into a smoky sweetness once ripened to red. They’re the base for some of the world’s favorite sauces and add depth to chili, salsa, and just about anything else you can dream up. For us, they’re a reminder that heat is only half the story—flavor is the foundation.
7 Pot Primo (By Troy Primeaux)– The Chili Masterpiece
When it comes to heat lovers, the 7 Pot Primo is a legend. This pepper has the ability to take a pot of chili and launch it into another dimension. Bright red, gnarled, and wicked in appearance, it packs brutal heat with a fruity undertone that keeps you coming back for more (carefully). It’s one of the best examples of how extreme heat and real flavor can live side by side.
Chocolate Primotalii (By Christ Saunders)– Dark & Dangerous
The Chocolate Primotalii is not for the faint of heart. With its deep, almost sinister brown hue, it looks as intense as it tastes. Known for its searing, long-lasting burn, this variety delivers layers of earthy, smoky complexity under the fire. It’s the kind of pepper that demands respect and is a favorite among serious growers and heat seekers alike.
Beast (By Chad Inman)– The Monster of the Patch
If peppers had personalities, the Beast would be the rebel. Its twisted, gnarly shape makes it one of the most intimidating peppers you’ll ever lay eyes on. And in this case, the looks don’t deceive you—the Beast’s blistering heat matches its wild, untamed appearance. It’s the perfect example of “what you see is exactly what you get.”
Why We Grow Them
At HellFire Farms, peppers aren’t just crops—they’re characters. Each variety has its own flavor story, heat profile, and personality. From the humble red jalapeño to the unrelenting RB003, they’re all part of the fiery family we’re proud to grow.
So whether you’re looking for the perfect chili pepper, a chocolate-colored monster, or just something that looks like it crawled out of a fire pit, we’ve got the heat to match your passion
