This is how I cook Bratwurst I put it in a pan of water at around 180F for ten minutes.
Then I grill them.
Processing any pepper for 15 to 30 minutes in a jar at 1000 feet or less will cook it.
10 is pushing it.
I have no idea what your altitude is but I live around 400.
Here is one for bell peppers that is 5 minutes at 1000 feet or below.
You should be able to omit the sugar I really dont know.
To be honest with you I hot pack my pickles and keep them in the fridge I also wouldn't have a problem with them in the shelf.
They all seal.
But I cant tell you to do that.
I have tried the other ways and they turn into mush.
I use a 1 to 1 ratio of 5% vinegar to water.
You can use what ever spice you want.
