Are we talking about unripe red peppers or ripe? I never noticed the ripe ones to be bitter. And the unripe bell peppers are probably not meant to be used like that. Raw they taste like grass and cooked can be indeed bitter or very bitter.
If you want a pepper for cooking you need to look into one of those pointy peppers that pass through a cream-lightgreen colour, like Romanian Rainbow (and use it as the cream stage). Bell peppers are not for cooking.
