2 cups finely chopped red bell peppers
5 1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup lemon juice
Tabasco Sauce to taste - I used a chipotle hot sauce
1 pouch liquid Certo
5 1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup lemon juice
Tabasco Sauce to taste - I used a chipotle hot sauce
1 pouch liquid Certo
Cut open and take seeds out of 2-3 red bell peppers. Chop fine in food processor or blender.
Place peppers, sugar, red wine vinegar and water in large dutch oven over high heat. Heat and stir until it boils. Remove from heat and let stand for 15 minutes.
Place pot back on heat and reheat to boiling. Add lemon juice and liquid Certo and Tabasco sauce stirring well. Bring to a full rolling boil and boil 1 minute.
Cool 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour into clean, hot canning jars. Turn upside to seal.
This is a nice condiment to pork, chicken or turkey and adds great flavor to a sandwich.
NOTE: You do not need to put this in a hot water bath. As long as you use hot jars and hot sterilized lids they will stay sealed. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 2 years.
