Having grown up in this biz, James is one of JR Martinez' five children that lived under the roof of The Grill. Most of the kids had run the business for a spell once JR retired.
It was late in 1994 that his father passed, and James took over, purchasing the business in 1996 with his wife Linda Duthie.
When James was in middle school he swept the dining room before class. In the fall they all pitched in to roast the chile peppers. During his college years he came back to Leadville to help during the summer seasons, and of course for the roasting.
James has strict guidelines for his mother's recipes and oversees every morsel. The peppers are still purchased fresh by the sack, his hand is the one creating that green chile and everything else that makes it's way into the dining room and the bellies of satisfied customers.
He's been asked - how do you make it taste the same and so good for so long ?
How could he make it any different?
