We specialize in kettle-cooking. That means, if we can cook it in a kettle, we can make it! Think sauces, soups, meat or vegetable fillings, marinades, cheese sauces, broths, spreads or jams and more. Check out some of the foods we make here.

We are green chile fanatics, so we love to chat chile! The famous Colorado Green Chile recipe tends to include the Pueblo Chile pepper and tomatoes, giving it a reddish hue. A traditional New Mexican green chile soup/sauce/stew is greener in color, relying on the Hatch Green Chile pepper.

There are many! Here are just a few… each bag is 100% yield and saves you labor costs and prep time. Each bag is consistent and safe, giving your the ability to quickly scale-up your operations. You just have to order one Ready Foods ingredient, instead of all of the ingredients that go into that recipe. Each case has a long shelf life, with products that you can store in the freezer and thaw when the need arises. The food we make is cooked to the kill step, so it is without harmful bacteria, and then frozen to preserve its freshness.

At this time, we do not have a dedicated gluten-free facility, but we do have the ability make recipes with all gluten-free ingredients.

For co-packing projects, each recipe is unique.
