The Pimento or Cherry Pepper is a variety of large, red, heart-shaped chile pepper (Capsicum annuum) that measures 3 to 4 inches long and 2 to 3 inches wide (medium, elongate).

Its cavity is ideal to contain a stuffing, then covered with a brine or marinade to preserve them.

PEPPER SHOOTERS are cherry peppers stuffed with prosciutto wrapped around provolone cheese.
