Ingredients

To make Grandma’s Easy Touchdown Chili Sauce start by combining peeled, chopped tomatoes, diced onion, and green pepper.

Next, combine salt, cinnamon, ground cloves, and ground nutmeg.

Add the spices to the tomato mixture.

Measure 1 teaspoon of your favorite hot sauce (use a gluten-free brand) and add it to the tomato mixture.

Measure 2-1/4 cups apple cider vinegar and add it to the tomato mixture. (I use Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar.)

Heat the Sauce

Next, heat the tomato mixture over medium heat (stir occasionally) until it comes to a low boil.

Reduce the heat and simmer the mixture for 2 hours, or until it thickens.

The sauce gradually starts to thicken as it simmers.

After it reaches the desired consistency, remove it from heat. Carefully spoon sauce into sterilized Mason jars.
