Is the hatch chili fest in Columbia md. confirmed on sept. 9th to the 11th 2016?
Yes, this will be happening in 2016, for sure! See you there, time traveler!
All times for next weekend in Maryland are listed as TBD. Is there any update for next weekend?
What time is chile event for Crofton store? Thanks
Is the chili festival close to Baltimore please
Unity Church Hill Nursery at 3621 Church Hill Road in Church Hill Maryland has an abundance of Hatch Green Chili Peppers growing and is looking for a someone with a Chili Roaster or someone to come and hold a Chili Roasting event
I want only Hatch Chile from Hatch NM….is that where your chile originated from?? Thank you…its the best because of the desert weather.
What are the prices for the Hunt Valley, Maryland event? Also, is roasting available? Can’t wait to go. Already took the day off.
Here’s how the Bel Air Wegmans holds their annual Hatch Chile weekend:
They’ll have roasters set up in the parking lot near the store, and samples either near the roasters, or by the entrance. That’s because they’re selling hatch chiles with several levels of heat – mild, medium, hot, and sometimes extra-hot. Heat varies year-to-year, so it’s best to check before you buy. (Last year the mediums were pretty mild, but the year before even the milds had a touch of heat)
If you want to buy a box of roasted chile, let them know how much and the heat you want. You’ll pay inside and pick it up as you leave (they roast by order). (I think boxes are 30 lbs.) They will have smaller trays and fresh chile available for sale inside.
They will also have a lot of prepared foods and samples available inside with hatch chiles. For example, stuffed chiles with crab, or with beef, hatch chile bialys (bagels) – and one year they even had a hatch chile and apple strudel. The hot bar will also have a lot of hatch recipes, and the cheese department will be selling cheeses and dips with hatch chiles.
Harris teeter and whole foods locations around Baltimore have Hatch chiles as of the date of this post.
Well, it’s not Pueblo Chile which is superior, but being out in MD where green chile isn’t a thing, this will have to do. Stoked because I only have one bag left in my freezer!
Please… Where are the Pueblo Chile festivals outside CO?
Colorado chili is lame!! If you anything bout chile…. New Mexico is the chile capital of the world & our chile is far more robust & full of flavor & heat. Sorry to burst your bubble or rain on your parade but Hatch, New Mexico chile is #1!! That’s coming from New Mexico Native American Pueblo Indian. Chile is part of our culture & cuisine.
No one’s ever heard of “Pueblo chile”.
Thanks for the dates. I’ve used your info. for the past 3 years. 🙂
Woo hoo!! Thanks Dan!
How much per box?
I’m not sure… each store/chain would decide on the price
Are the 2019 Hatch chili roasting dates in Maryland confirmed?
I received these dates from them… so, hopefully! Never hurts to call ahead of time to confirm
Where can I find Hatch Green Chile Roasted in Baltimore. Wegmans is not doing roasting this year. Does anyone know why.

Merkova – I was informed that Wegmans canceled their roasts. Do you know something that I don’t?
On the Wegmans website under events it shows the dates. Called store in Columbia to confirm this.
The Events Webpage for the Hatch Chile Roast is now down…
Wegmans in Frederick just told me the roasting was pushed back a week to Aug 23-26 because the harvest was later than expected.
Wegmans DID cancel their events this week. But the manager told us that they WILL be doing the roast next weekend at the Frederick store. And it will be the only location probably in the area and potentially the last roast, they said they may not do it again.
Just called Columbia to find out times for this weekend and they let me know they cancelled the event due to poor quality. Not sure about other locations.
Confirmed re Columbia Wegman’s cancelling. No word on whether they would try again with a future date. Ack!
I just called the Crofton store and their catering department said they’re still on for next weekend.
Woo hoo!!
