Rings of Fire

6 quarts, hot peppers
5 cups, vinegar
2-1/2 cups, water
6 Tbs. granulated sugar
6 Tbs. pickling salt

Cut hot peppers into rings about 1/4" thick.  Combine remaining
ingredients in stainless steel pot and bring to boil, simmer for
5 minutes.  Pack pepper pieces into hot, sterilized pint mason jars
and pour boiling liquid over, leaving 1/4" head space.  Immediately,
fit lids and screwbands.  Process in BWB 10 minutes.  Allow to cool
in draft free location.  Ready to use in approx. 3 weeks.

Alternatives:  If you want the peppers whole, cut two slits in each
one then pack peppers into jars and proceed as above.
