There are several threads explaining how to post pics. You need to host them on a photo site and link to those pics here

from your description, the lines are called "corking" and is a sign the pepper is ripe...maybe not the ripe color but plenty mature to eat...

as far as the pepper description itself, dang...a 3" diameter pepper...no idea without seeing a picture...

Me thinks it's some kind of jalapeno but 3" diameter rules that out so maybe it's.....


Some kind of midget Poblano,

or an Ancho?

Not a Xalapa.....likely a poblano from size and color.
