Ingredients

2 Green Bell Peppers
1 Red Bell Pepper
1 Yellow Bell Pepper
1 Orange Bell Pepper
1 White Onion
2 tbsp. Olive Oil
1 tsp. Sea Salt
1 tsp. Black Pepper

Instructions

Preheat the smoker to 350 F.
Wash, rinse, and dry the bell peppers.
Place the peppers and onion onto a cutting board. Remove the stems and seeds from all the peppers.
Sliced each pepper to be about 1-2 inches thick and 2-3 inches long. Slice the onion into similar size pieces.
Add the sliced bell peppers and onion into a bowl. Add in the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine.
Pour the peppers into a cast iron skillet or aluminum pan. Spread them into an even layer for even smoking.
Place the sweet peppers onto the smoker and smoke for 20-30 minutes. Toss the peppers with tongs and allow them to smoke an additional 20-30 minutes. The peppers are done when the color appears to be deeper and they are soft and tender but still have a slight bite to them (al dente).
Remove the pan from the smoker and serve them with Italian beef, Italian sausage, or bratwurst.

Notes

No smoker? Roast the peppers and onions in the oven instead!
