Description

The Large Red Thick is an American cayenne-type variety notable for its unusually thick-walled pods compared to standard cayenne peppers, producing large, fleshy red fruits with moderate-to-high heat and a bold, fruity flavor. Its substantial flesh makes it suitable for both fresh use and processing, offering significantly more body than typical thin-walled cayennes. A productive garden variety used in hot sauces, drying, and fresh culinary preparations across the American South and Midwest.
