Instructions: Prepare Ball brand or Kerr brand jars and closures according to manufacturers instructions.

Combine all ingredients in a large saucepot. Bring to boiling; simmer until desired consistency, about 1 to 2 hours. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.

Carefully ladle hot sauce into hot jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe jar rim clean. Place lid on jar with sealing compound next to glass. Screw band down evenly and firmly just until a point of resistance is met - fingertip tight.

Process 15 minutes in a boiling-water canner. At elevations higher than 1,000 feet, boil 2 additional minutes for each additional 1,000 feet elevation.

This recipe yields about 6 pints.

Comments: Chili sauce is not a bright red color because ground spices are used.

Yield: 6 pints
