Opinions, suggestions and options

This is my 2nd bulk pickings from my bucket garden, 1st went to son and family. I'm planning on flame grilling/smoking them and putting it all up in the freezer for winter stews and chillis and what ever. Last year I flame grilled some whole maters w/ skin-on on my Char-Griller over coals and then sliced and diced, tasted great but a P.I.A. to handle and bag. I've got 2 varieties of maters and 3 of the peppers, sweets to be picked later. I've never had flame grilled peppers before, is it worth it. I'm open to all options and suggestion. Thanks for any impute.

I grilled a bumper crop and dehydrated peppers and made sauce of tomatoes. Grilled tomatoes, ran thru Victorio, and canned outside on a cajun cooker. No mess or heat inside. I was happy. No way I'd ever do it another way now.

Best way to eat them for me . Char the skin black . Put in a paper bag or something with a lid . Close it up and let them steam , then peel the skin off when cooled .

I cut a cross on the blossem end of tomatoes and dunk them briefly in boiling water . Then into some ice water . The cut in the skin should roll back . Peel the skin off , cut in half and get rid of the seeds before I grill them .
Just how I do it .

I'm sure you've heard the ole saying "Best laid Plans". Gotta put off my project until morning. Just too many diversion today. Gotta play the part of Grumpy Grandpa Smurf.

I definitely agree with Chopsaw about the peppers. Exactly what I do.
