World's Largest Chili Pepper

Fun, quick stop for a photo op. This massive 47 foot concrete red chile pepper is located in front of the Big Chile Inn on Hotel Row on Picacho Avenue. No longer fenced in, you can get up close and personal for your pictures and it has a fairly new coat of red paint to add to the spiciness.

Visited June 1, 2023. Very cool roadside attraction. It is a BIG Chili Pepper. 47-foot-long red chili pepper made of 2.5 tons of concrete. In a motel parking lot (Big Chile Inn). Selfie worthy.

If you google "Things to do in Las Cruces, New Mexico", one of the topics you will see is the "World's Largest Chili Pepper".Measuring at 47 long and weighing 2 1/2 tons, you can't miss this thing as you drive by. It sits right in front of the Big Chile Inn. Obviously, the owners of the hotel wanted to attract more customers. I would say to put this on your list of things to see in Las Cruces. It's definitely a sight to see and of course you will look cool with this giant thing in the background of your selfie!Yelp 2023 Review #23916 overall

Built in 2010-2011 by the owners of the motel who hoped to use it as a tourist attraction, this is 5000 pounds of concrete and it's not going anywhere. Around 47 feet long, it is open to be viewed and photographed, the gate that used to be here a few years ago has been removed.Las Cruces is hope for the Chile Pepper Institute and chile peppers are New Mexico's number one crop. So of course this belongs here.I don't know about the hotel as I didn't stay there. I just came to see the hot pepper. Very cool?[Review 17474 overall - 84 in New Mexico - 992 of 2022.]

Very nice big pepper. I recommended if you want to see the biggest pepper. It's easy to spot

It's a big Chili Pepper in a shady motel parking lot in a drug invested part of Las Cruces. Fetynal Zombies stumbling around.

It is exactly as the name implies! It's awesome to see but that's about it since it's in the parking lot of the Big Chili Inn Motel. Definitely picture worthy.

i just went to see the pepper cool there are no restaurants here it's solely a hotelgo check it out
