Mix the ground meat, sausage, eggs, bread crumbs, cheese and onion. Season with garlic, black pepper and seasoned salt to taste. Mix well again.
Fill banana peppers with meat mixture. Lay on a wax paper-covered tray and cover with plastic wrap, place in freezer until frozen firm; transfer to freezer bags until ready to use.
