Homemade chili powder is the best.
We have an extremely large garden and usually smoke Pablano (Ancho Chili Powder) and other hot peppers on the smoker for hours, and when nicely dried and shriveled, grind the Ancho’s into powder to use for all sorts of things. Then store the rest, and then put smoked dried pieces into various recipes. Much better than anything store bought.

Made it and so much more flavor! Thank you for including alt peppers, was able to find guajillos! Can’t wait to use in recipes.

In reply to Susan. Hi Susan, no I use 6 guajillos OR 6 new mexico chiles, OR 3 ancho chiles (ancho chiles are larger than the others). Mixing them would be fine too, but I wanted to list a bunch of options in case people couldn't find one or another.
