Maybe you two should do the show

I think he meant 3" long and a 1'4" thick. Also, if you have never tried that seasoning before, 3 tbsp isn't all that much. It is a relativly sweet cajun spice, but it is always a good idea to start with less. Everyone has different tastes, some may like this a little hotter than others.

"cut peppers into 3" strips" on the show he said they were 1/4" strips; also, isn't 3 tbsp. additional Cajun seasoning a bit much? I haven't tried this but wonder.
