Remove remote .git Heroku files

I deleted my Heroku app from the management console, but when I tried to create a new app using the same repository it is still trying to push to the old app, I ran the following command to see the git files 

git remote -v

which returned these files

origin  [email protected]:Jbur43/all-bugs-aside.git (fetch)
origin  [email protected]:Jbur43/all-bugs-aside.git (push)

I them tried running git rm all-bugs-aside.git and git rm [email protected]:Jbur43/all-bugs-aside.git and git rm all-bugs aside

I also tried running all of those commands with -rf, but I could not get the files to delete.

Can someone help me with the syntax needed to remove these files and also once they are removed I should be able to create a new heroku app and push to git push heroku master, correct?

Remove the remote that points to heroku ("origin" is the remote's name): git remote rm origin

Other .git files aren't Heroku's files but your project's source control.
