Numex Heritage Big Jim, or simply 'Big Jim' pepper seeds yield a large, mild, and flavorful pepper variety that is widely popular for its size and versatility.

The Numex Big Jim peppers ripen to a vibrant red and are prized for their slightly sweet, smoky flavor. They are commonly used in salsas, sauces, and stuffed pepper recipes, and are particularly favored for roasting due to their robust, meaty texture.
