 I noticed that red bell peppers were on sale, and that got me to thinking about canning some roasted red peppers on the Char-Broil Big Easy.

Ingredients

For the roasted red peppers

  • 8-10 red peppers stems cut back

For canning for every 2-3 roasted peppers (depends on size, so I'd have a few extra jars and a little extra vinegar mix on hand just in case)

Instructions

For the roasted peppers

  • Fire up your Big Easy. Add peppers to basket, but don't crowd them.
  • Add basket to the Big Easy and roast 30-45 minutes depending on how done you want them.
  • Remove and place peppers in a large bowl or resealable baggie and cover/seal for 10-15 minutes to let the skins steam off.
  • Remove skins, seeds, and stems.
  • Follow canning instructions below.

Canning instructions

  • Mix vinegar and water in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
  • Put jar and lids into a large pot of water and bring to a boil for 10 minutes. Remove, drain, and set aside.
  • Pack peppers into jars as desired.
  • Add vinegar mixture. Using a knife, poke around the edges of the jar to make sure no air bubbles are trapped. Add more vinegar mixture if needed to maintain a level 1/4" beneath the top of the jar.
  • Add lid and screw on tight.
  • Place jar into hot water and bring to a boil and boil for 10 minutes.
  • Remove and let cool completely.
  • Check that the lid has shrunken (doesn't move if pressed). If it does, refrigerate and use within a few days.
  • Otherwise, store in a cool, dark place until ready to use. Refrigerate after opening.
