stuffed hot cherry peppers

[the simple life]

Does anyone here know how to make those stuffed hot cherry peppers. The cherry peppers that are stuffed with proscuitto and cheese. I know I have to pressure can them since there is meat in them and cheese and I would have to add vinegar for acid.They are packed in oil. Thats as much as I know. My family loves them but they are sooo expensive around here and would like to try making them. I need to do this the right way for safet sake, so I am wondering if anyone else has made these.

Haven't heard of those stuffed peppers. I think that they are good by them selfs. Actually they do make a great hot sauce.

Oh man, you don't know what you are missing... you should try to get your hands on some. A little messy to eat though, since they are packed in olive oil and when you bite into one of those fat peppers it tends to be a little messy but well worth it.
Hopefully I can find a recipe. I have seen small jars of them sell for $10.00 and the larger for $20.00 and the store done the street sells them for a couple of bucks a piece.
I know how to make them but I am concerned about the canning part of it.

It has meat you said. I am not sure if you can can meat.

I know that you have to use a pressure canner to do meat but I have never done it because it makes me leery. You have to be careful when you do meat. I have thought about just making them straight out because I know they won't last long in our house but it would be nice to be able to make enough to can and have them for when you want to do antipasto platters.

If you get me the recipe I would love to try it I have an overload of cherry hots.

This is the recipe I am looking for except it doesn't tell you how to can them. I think I am just going to make them and stick them in the frig anyway. I mean they are so easy to make it will take no time at all when I am in the mood to make them.
