This says you have to peel and core the peppers but they don't come that way
from the store do they? I bet you can leave hot peppers whole. I have seen
people use a boiling water bath for processing.

CANNING PEPPERS
Hot or sweet, including chilies, jalapeno, and pimento
QUANTITY: An average of 9 pounds is needed per canner
load of 9 pints. A bushel weighs 25 pounds and yields 20 to
30 pints--an average of 1 pound per pint.
