In the UK, the phrase “stuffed hatch” has a somewhat different meaning.

Nice sub though!

Hmmm, Hatch chiles.

For those who may not know:

Hatch chile refers to varieties of species of the genus Capsicum which are grown in the Hatch Valley, an area stretching north and south along the Rio Grande from Arrey, New Mexico, in the north to Tonuco Mountain to the southeast of Hatch, New Mexico. The soil and growing conditions in the Hatch Valley create a unique terroir [26] which contributes to the flavor of chile grown there. Most of the varieties of chile cultivated in the Hatch Valley have been developed at New Mexico State University over the last 130 years.

Hatch chile can be purchased locally in many parts of the Southwest, and is distributed throughout the United States by companies such as World Variety Produce. Other distributors sometimes use the "Hatch" name, but do not actually grow and process their chile in the Hatch Valley.[27] To protect Hatch and other New Mexican growers, state legislators passed a 2012 law prohibiting the sale in New Mexico of peppers described as "New Mexican" unless they were grown in New Mexico or came with a prominent "Not grown in New Mexico" disclaimer.[28] Chiles grown around the town are marketed under the name of the town, and are often sold fresh-roasted in New Mexico and neighboring states in the early autumn.[29]

Interesting. I’m familiar with “terroir” for wine growing, never with chillies 🌶

I used to motorcycle in that area. En route between Albuquerque and Tucson I'd take the Deming Hatch cut-off. Not much gas between the two and was always on fumes by the time I made it through. Usually a lot of police looking for drug runners as well. Not to mention that I believe that the South end of the Continental Divide is on that path. I'd frequently get wet riding though there. Also having Chilis hanging on the front door is good luck.
