In my own humble opinion If the pepers are red it is to late to can
them. I do mine green. Take a needle and some light fishing line to
the red peppers and air dry them. They will make some great pizza
pepper when ground or crushed.

Cayanee green I do in straight cidar vinegar. Banana peppers we do in
a 50/50 white vinigar/water/salt(pinch).

Hope this helps.

BTW- no fridge needed for the above till opened.
