Saw them being heralded outside of my local Albertson's here in West Texas. I was wondering what all the !!! was about because I'd never heard of the Hatch brand - and I can see New Mexico from my house.

Guess I'll need to go get me some.

Hatch is not really a brand, but a town. However, I believe it has been trade-marked so chile from other locations, including Mexico, can't say Hatch chile.

BTW, after roasting you peel the skins off the pepper. Make sure you take precautions - wear disposable gloves and never brush or wipe your face, it'll burn your eyes (think pepper spray!).

They've been fire roasting them in those big mesh cages outside the HEB stores in Texas. They smell so good. I think they were 79 cents a lb last week.
