I was at Sunflower Market the other day and I saw a line of people waiting their turn to get their chilies roasted. I caught this little guy patiently waiting and watching as the roaster was spinning. The smell was heavenly.
Roasted chilis are so divine! I've been roasting mine under my broiler in the mornings to add to my scrambled eggs. Doesn't quite measure up to these tho. My preference is Matt Romero's at your market! I was tempted to take some home in my suitcase, but decided against it.
Oh I can almost smell it! I've been there during chili season, and it IS heavenly, all the smells and the colorful sights of drying chilies. I hope you're getting your fill of them yourself! happy weekend to you Randy.
Roasted Chilies?! Never had them! ANOTHER thing to do if I ever make it down that way. By the sounds and smell of things...I don't know if I would have waited as patiently;D
Waiting for your chilies to be roasted??? Wow, first time I am reading about such a thing! It's worth the trip one day... Thks for visiting Chandler a to z.

Good shot! I can smell good, too.
I can't imagine the taste! I can't imagine how you, guys, are eating those red/green chilli dishes! Way too hot for me.

Wow! I had to look closely to spy him. Sort of in camo-mode.

Love roasted chillies Randy, haven't had them for a while, I bet the smell was divine!!
Mmmm, something I have yet to experience yet, the smell of chili peppers roasting. Must be quite the aroma.
I"ve been trying to find some roasting going on here the past few weeks with now luck. I love those roasted chilies.
Wow....you just have the best things in your area. Can't imagine how great the smell was!
I can smell them now! Yum-o!
The scent of roasting chiles IS heavenly! I don't think I could wait as patiently as that little boy.
Wow! Thats alot of chilis in that tumbler cage. That wonderful smell drifted all the way to my house in Oklahoma!
It is obviously a suggestion, but I can smell it too...

Ah yes, the smell is nearly as good as the finished product. Nothing like NM chilies.
