Steps:
- Wearing rubber or latex gloves, trim tops off chiles. Working in batches, pulse chiles, bell peppers, and onion in a food processor until chopped into fine bits, about 1 minute per batch. Transfer to a nonreactive 3-quart pot.
- Stir sugar, vinegar, and salt into chile mixture and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring more frequently toward end of cooking to prevent scorching, until thickened, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Pour or ladle relish into clean, wide-mouth, half-pint jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Wipe rims clean with a damp paper towel. Let cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
- Apply clean lids. Enjoy immediately, store in fridge 2 to 3 weeks, or freeze up to 6 months.

SWEET AND TANGY PEPPER SPREAD
Yum, this dip is quite tasty. It's sweet, savory and smoky. The marmalade and balsamic reduction give the dip a sweet and unique flavor. We loved the smokiness from the Gouda and bacon. Bell peppers add a crisp bite to the dip. Serving with buttery crackers is perfect. They add a nice saltiness that complements the dip really well. But try this with your favorite dippers.

Steps:
- Beat cream cheese and marmalade together with a hand mixer until well blended.
- Stir in meat, cheese, and balsamic reduction. Set aside.
- Cut off the tops of the peppers. Remove seeds and pith to make four "bowls." Reserve the three small tops as "lids."
- Finely chop the large pepper top.
- Stir into the cream cheese mixture.
- Fill pepper "bowls" with the mixture. Chill until ready to serve. Serve with crackers or chips.
- NOTE: If you like more chunks of peppers in your spread, just chop all of the pepper tops instead of keeping the small ones intact as "lids."
