Default how good is it though?

I was looking around and I see a whole lot of offerings for Jimmy nardello sweet.
I'm seriously putting consideration into growing this next year, or maybe starting late and over wintering this pepper but is it worth the time, space and effort?

Many people love it and would not be without it. Personally, I thought it was too skinny for me, and prefer a bit chubbier frying pepper. You won't know til you try it for yourself!

Thanks for throwing that idea out there Tracydr. I'll have to look that up.

Actually I'll probably plant both and hope I can keep them over the winter.

Tracydr, is that perhaps just a "different" spelling of the Giant Aconcagua Pepper or an entirely different variety? I am trying the Aconcagua pepper this year for the first time.
