Although I am clearly addicted to El Pato, I won't take this personally or argue with you. I live in Vermont, which is about as far as you can get from "south of border" and stay south of our border. Green bell peppers are considered hot and spicy around here.
If there is any other product on the market even remotely like the El Pato sauce I would love to know about it; otherwise I think El Pato has cornered the market on hot and spicy tomato sauce. For making enchilados, my sister who lives in Arizona swears by Santa Cruz chili paste, which is sold in jars and maybe available in stores generally. I have been planning to order frozen green chilis from NM for years, I just need a freezer to store them (chili rellenos, yum).
To me, the key to enchilidas are 1) corn tortillas, 2) green onions/scallions 3) homemade sauce. Good luck with the party and enjoy.
