Not to bring up an old thread, but it caught my eye. I got every year to the chile fest, come home with atleast 400 pounds for me and my family. With me adding three more to that in June, I think I need more chile.
Here's an idea if you get your hands on some hatch chile:
Dice it Up and mix quite a bit in with breadcrumbs and ground beef for meatloaf(any of meatloaf mixing a you need as well). Then take a few slices whole chiles and throw them on a skillet for about 3 minutes on high, get them carmelized, and put them on top of the meatloaf. Wrap and cook in oven. Cut and eat as desired. Best meatloaf I have ever had.
Another idea:
Mix cream cheese, shredded cheddar, prosciutto, and chipotle peppers with some diced hatch big Jims.
Mix thoroughly.
Hollow out jalapeños and fill with cream cheese mix, wrap each large jalapeño with atleast two thick prices of bacon, and use wood toothpicks to hold in place. Throw in oven or cook on grill(I like both, depending on how crispy you want the outside, both are awesome), eat when bacon is cooked and jalapeños are juicy and crunchy.
