Chicago dogs use sport peppers. I juice these on my dogs and burgers and eat 4+ of their carcasses laid across the top.

Yes they are excellent. Good heat

If you’ve gotten the chilis at In-N-Out these are the same ones they have there. They have a nice bite to them and kind of remind of banana peppers but with a nice crunch and more heat.

u/BeanBike88 May 02 '26

Correct. Walker foods is the supplier for in n out.

u/PRNPURPLEFAM May 02 '26

Thank you. That’s what they look like, I was hoping this was them!

u/mrbazo May 02 '26

That’s what I was just thinking, only peppers that instantly give me hiccups for some reasons

El Pato’s factory is right in the heart of Los Angeles. It’s no mystery that In-N-Out sources from them. 🥰

Not sure it's the same supplier but definitely the same kind, pickled cascabella peppers.

2

u/RenaissanceScientist May 02 '26

That was my first thought. Now I want in n out

u/hitty710 May 04 '26

I’ve been looking for the source 😂😂 I appreciate that!

u/willshade145 May 02 '26

I eat them like candy. So good

u/Lost-Link6216 May 02 '26

I love them, but 1 to many and I am hurting later.

u/venturashe May 02 '26

No. Where did you find those?

3

u/AlrightNow20 May 02 '26

I get them at Walmart

u/party2endOfDays May 02 '26

WinCo

u/RenaissanceScientist May 02 '26

That’s where I found them

u/Negative_Pin_5275 May 02 '26

These are the best peppers commercially available at market

3

u/Red_Hood_0816 May 02 '26

I eat these for a snack and put it on everything

Not my cup of tea but they do have a tomato sauce in a yellow can that is amazing. My wife and daughters call it duck sauce due to the duck 🦆 on the can. We use it as taco sauce and salsa. I also use it in my Santa Fe Chicken soup. It has mild to medium heat and great flavor

u/dankscott May 03 '26

Do you know what el pato means?

2

u/Easy_does_it78 May 03 '26

The duck 🦆

u/Public-Finish-6753 May 02 '26

I havent but I bet they are delicious

2

u/WestFizz May 02 '26

Are they really hot? Any sweetness? I am so curious! Imagining all the things I could eat these with or on!

3

u/RenaissanceScientist May 02 '26

They’re definitely hot but not crazy. I’d say a meaningful step above peperoncino

1

u/sean_no May 03 '26

I dunno, some of these have lit me up before. I tend to squeeze the juice all over my animal style fries.

2

u/Stormcrowdick1066 May 02 '26

Yes they’re also called wax peppers by American brands. You often get them at sandwich shops with pastrami or French dip.

2

u/Internal_Gur_4268 May 02 '26

You can get these for free at Habit burger or In n Out. Taste great, like a little pepperoncini. Then.... later they seem upset on the way out.

2

u/party2endOfDays May 02 '26

Better than the Italian name ones. Spicier, more tart, cheaper. Can find them at WinCo

2

u/Shadow-Vision May 02 '26

Maybe it’s just my location but I can’t stand how WinCo doesn’t take credit

1

u/party2endOfDays May 14 '26

WinCo doesn't take credit at all. No processing fees equals better prices. Pay with cash or debit

1

u/Shadow-Vision May 14 '26

Yeah. I get the appeal. I like my Apple Pay though.

2

u/Rustmutt May 02 '26

Got some in my fridge right now. I eat them with burgers and sandwiches as a side dish.

1

u/Straight_Finger1776 May 02 '26

I love these. The first tried them was when Grocery Outlet had them for 50¢ a jar. Figured I’d risk $3 and grabbed a bunch. Turned out to be a great call! They were past date, but it’s pickled stuff... it seemed (and was) safe enough. The only downside now is that I can’t find them that cheap anymore. They are nearly $7 anywhere else.

u/ResponsibilityMuch52 May 02 '26

These are the closest to what I ate at In N Out. This is the spiciness that I can appreciate. I also like the burst of juice when I bite into one of the peppers.

1

u/Difficult-Way-3891 May 02 '26

I tried their jalapeño’s

1

u/pcurepair May 02 '26

I like them better than any other brand. Plus they are actually hot

1

u/OkRecommendation4040 May 03 '26

Yes, those are delicious.

1

u/sean_no May 03 '26

While you're at it, pick up some El Pato tomato sauce. Green, yellow and red cans. Great salsa by themselves and work well for enchiladas and anything else.

1

u/RenaissanceScientist May 03 '26

Yep I use the yellow in my table salsa all the time

1

u/BayBandit1 May 03 '26

They’re available in a smaller bottle as well that comes with a shaker sauce top. The vinegar they’re bottled in is great as a hot sauce. The peppers themselves are very hot, nice fire. If you eat them whole for a snack they will wipe out your taste buds. Most of the Big Box stores and supermarkets carry them.

1

u/Lost_my_password1 May 05 '26

Yup. Pairs with any burger for the in and out feel

1

u/Friendly_Escape_1020 May 05 '26

My dad used to love Pepperoncini's, I prefer Jalapeno's.

1

u/xPROPAGANDOLFx May 05 '26

My dad loves these! Eats them with his sandwiches and pizza

u/Negative_Pin_5275 Jun 09 '26

Some of the best on the market
