Place whole red, yellow, or orange bell peppers over Direct Medium heat. Grill until evenly charred on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes, turning every 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the peppers from the grill and place in a paper bag close tightly. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes to steam off the skins. Remove the peppers from the bag and peel away the charred skins. Cut off the tops and remove the seeds. Slice, chop, or use as desired.
You can use the same grill-roasting and skinning method for large chile peppers, such as Anaheims and poblanos, or even the smaller jalapeño. Just grill them until charred all over, turning as needed. (Be careful not to rub your eyes while working with these hot ones you may even want to wear rubber gloves.) Meaty chiles are particularly impressionable when it comes to taking on smoky undertones from the grill. Try them whole in stuffed pepper recipes (such as the Poblano Rellenos), puréed in sauces, diced in salsas, or as a garnish.
