As jalapenos and other green chiles ripen on the plant, they usually gradually change from green to red. Red ripe jalapenos have a slightly different flavor than green ones, but most people find them even better because they get a more complex flavor. You don't see many red jalapenos at regular super markets because they are usually shipped very green to make them have a longer shelf life and bruise less during shipping. The flesh of very ripe jalapenos can be a little thinner than green ones, so they may not be as good for stuffing as green ones are. They can substute for each other in most recipes. If you have heard of chipotle chiles (pronounced "chip-OAT-lay", they are ripe red jalapenos that have been dried and smoked and then often canned in adobo sauce, but you can also find them in their dried state without sauces.
