Never heard of that show but I looked it up and I see that it's on The Food Network, but usually in predawn hours. The episode you're referring to is from Season 1, Episode 7 : Chile Challenge. Not sure when and if that will re air, but if I see it, I'll record it. Sounds like fun.

I actually found the video... but I can't quite make out what the guy says the name is. It sounds to me like he calls it a "Nombre" chili?
Either way, the video is at http://www.hatchchilefest.com/. I think they talk about it in the 3rd clip.

"We grow "New Mexico's Finest" chile. Hatch is the Chile Capital of the World. We believe the best chile is grown in New Mexico, the best chile in New Mexico is grown in Hatch and the best chile in Hatch is grown on Lytle Farms.
The Hatch Chile Express was founded in 1988. We have been providing quality chile products and service for the past 20 years. We have been featured on the Food Network on a program called "Eat the Heat" and "Glutton For Punishment" for the past year. We have also been featured in magazines such as Sunset, Country America, Gourmet, Walking, Time, Texas Monthly and Top Producer and most recently Southern Living. Perhaps you have also seen us on ABC News, CNN and Nick News." "four choices - heat levels. We offer Mild (NM 6-4 Variety), Medium (Big Jim Variety), Hot (Sandia Variety) or X-Hot (Lumbre Variety)"
They look like they would be great for Chile rellenos. Now need to find seeds.

So what kind of pepper are they roasting and eating for this competition on this show?
And the pepper that lights him up that the pepper farmer is growing is called Lumbre.

They do but they called it a Lumbre which is the spanish word for fire. Im sure its just a cross breed of something thats nowhere near as hot as a Scorpion or Naga.
