Fire roasted peppers

SOUTHERNLINKSBBQ

I have begun roasting and freezing peppers. After roasting, steaming, peeling and seeding I chop them up and freeze them in ice cube trays for individual servings throughout the winter.

Those look great!  I don't have a lot of experience cooking them.  Do you roast them and then take the skins off before freezing?

Welcome back. Nice to see you posting again.

@SOUTHERNLINKSBBQ have you done the ice cube method before? I just picked up a ton at the store (they were really cheap right now) and was thinking of a few different options.

Nice.

Good to be back. Yes while
they are still hot in a bowl cover them with plastic to steam them a little and they will peel easily. The ice cube method works great.

Those look great! Every year I do my red roast bell peppers on the Egg and freeze them to use through out the year. Hands down the best red roast peppers anywhere. You should be set.

BTW, I seed my bell peppers and flatten them. Doing this means I only have to blacken one side and they are a whole lot easier to process after they are roasted.

Here is a post I made a few years ago

Wow. Is that reaper pretty easy to maintained? I’d like to do that but not sure it would grow in my climate.

Now that is a pepper producing machine.  I don't know what you will do with all those reapers but you will definitely have a high-heat supply for quite a while.  Gloves for sure when handling as I'm sure you know.
