Step peppers refers to a white person's Black "step" relatives. The term step pepper can be used by white family members when speaking of a step-parent or a step-brother/sister who is Black. The term originated in 2011 during a broadcast of Eric's Awesome Show on Adult Swim (Cartoon network's late night programming schedule). It was used during a skit in which a funeral was being held, as the preacher addressed each of the relatives of the deceased.
