I don't have a lot of experience growing regular bell peppers, so can't advise you in regards to those, but I HAVE grown Marconi peppers, and without any special attention or fuss on my part they become HUGE and JUICY all on their own. So I would suppose you'd try to start with peppers than are naturally prone to being large and go from there! Otherwise, for my frying peppers and so forth I find that lots of watering and a kelp solution makes them thicker and juicier, although they aren't necessarily tastier..
