Chili Sauce with Grandma


Every fall Grandma makes this delicious chili sauce from the garden and sends them to all her children and grandchildren to enjoy. Grandma got this recipe from her mother and always made it growing up with the fixings coming from their very own garden. This is especially good on her famous pot roast.


12 large ripe tomatoes
 1 green pepper
4 apples
 4 onions
2 T. salt
 1 t. cloves
1 t. cinnamon
 1 t. ginger
3 c. sugar
2 c. vinegar
Scald tomatoes, peel and chop into small pieces. Dice onions and pepper fine. Add salt, vinegar, sugar, and simmer 1 hour, stirring frequently. Add grated apples and simmer ½ hour or until sauce begins to thicken. Add spices and simmer about 10 to 15 minutes more. Bottle and cold pack for 20 minutes. Makes about 6-8 pints.
