RESOURCES FOR CHILE LOVERS AND COOKS
For several years I have been searching for the best chile pepper powders for my farmers market customers and web customers. I have established solid relationships with companies that provided consistant quality and best service.
The Peppahead store has shut down and I am happy to share these valuable resources with you. The listing below will be a work in progress for a while as I try to help you find the chiles you desire.

Many of these companies offer a wide range of spices and blends beyond just chile peppers. So if you need something special for your kitchen spice pantry, be sure to explore their product list.
NOTE: Many companies add salt to their rubs and blends (something that I would not do). Salt is cheap and just adds weight to products, resulting in buying salt rather main ingredients. Look for products that have salt listed low on the ingredients list.
Prices will vary, but many offer bulk pricing to save you some bucks $$$
