I assume, as a 'roaster pepper' one is supposed to roast the skin off before using? Or use to stuff and roast? Not one I've come across myself.

There is no 'right' that requires me to work for you or you to work for me!
I was playing with peppers last night too and then went to the bathroom...yep!
Even this morning after much hand washing, a shower and time sleeping in bed last night, I rubbed my eyes...yep!
I'm about to eat some for lunch, so we'll see how that goes...a glutton for punishment I am.

I made that mistake a time or two, now I keep a box of thin disposable rubber gloves for cleaning peppers, when done peel the gloves off and into the trash. Saves a lot of grief. Everybody and their brother likes hot pepper jelly but no ones ever around to help me make it.

Poured a bottle of Blairs MegaDeath sauce into a bowl with a huge can of peanuts, stirred it up and baked it till dry. I got a lot of mixed reactions from folks at work. I did make a mistake at one point and rubbed my eye after handling some, and infused the heat into my contact lens. Oh boy! Glad I didn't pull the bathroom goof!

Plomo, por favor!
Let me tell you the wife isn't too happy about handling hot peppers with bare hands either. I know they say you should spice things up, but I don't think that is what they had in mind.

Sometimes mild peppers will still burn.
Are these what you have??

I cut some jalapeños up to add to a jar of pickles one time. A few hours later, I took my contacts out. Man...

Last year my son gave me a bunch of hot peppers he grew. I let them sit in the basement till they were dry, then I ground them up in the blender. While pouring the powder into a jar, I got a good whiff of the real fine dust. I wished I hadn't. That was wicked stuff.
The hotter the pepper, the more you need gloves, eye and respiratory protection. Use a well ventilated airspace, let a fan suck the air away from you and out an open window, etc..
I put a bunch of Trinidad Butch T Scorpions in a food processor once, and then simply opened it after they were done, didn't touch any of the peppers, man that stuff attacked with a vengeance, filled the kitchen with pepper gas, even with the exhaust fan on the oven hood on high I was coughing, sneezing, eyes watering, nose running, it was WICKED! I had to leave the room.
Don't process hot peppers on a wooden cutting board or a worn one with lots of use on it, you can taint food you process 2 days later just from the residual capsaicin that soaked into the knife cuts and wood grain of your cutting board. I use a plastic divider from a notebook to slice and process peppers on, then I can soak that in the sink in hot soapy water so I know it's neutralized.

I make my own chili powder from a blend of 12 chili's including Thai bird chili's and habenero. I seed them then grind them in a coffee mill. As I was doing it a friend walked in the house and wandered into the kitchen when I hollered to come in. He started choking, gasping, wheezing... thought I was going to have to take him to the hospital. All I was wearing were gloves, no face or eye protection. Sure my nose was running and eyes burning but I didn't think it was that bad...
Many years ago I had a juicer and grew all kinds of hot peppers including Habeneros. A friend wanted some jalapeno juice. DO NOT do something like that... The process of juicing the jalapeno's released the heat into the air, I basically pepper sprayed myself. Took over an hour before anyone would venture into my kitchen.
Wife grew sweet peppers one time and I took a few to work with lunch. The long green ones, sweet.
Ate a bunch, got to the point on the last one, tossed it in and that sucker ate me up! Hotter then a ghost pepper. Just the tip.
I like hot and spicy but I was in pain.
I ate a Scottish bonnet once on a dare.... I just swallowed it whole, figured it was better then chewing.
How do you guys eat these things all the time?! I literally drove 75 mph down a 40, hoping to either make it to a CVS to buy pepto. Or for a cop to pull me over and shoot me.
My eyes are watering right now!
"Just try to remember which end makes the bad guys go away."
That is why I dry and grind them. Just a very little powder is all I need to season my food. I eat way more sweet peppers than hot peppers but I am a Yankee by birth.
