Ingredients
- A generous 8 cups of homemade applesauce
- A sweet touch with 6 cups of rich brown sugar
- 4 cups of smooth tomato sauce
- Enhance with 1 ½ cups of apple cider vinegar
- 4 teaspoons of salt for balance
- A hint of garlic with 4 teaspoons of powder
- 1 tablespoon of aromatic ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons of intriguing liquid smoke flavoring
- Add depth with 2 teaspoons of chili powder
- 2 teaspoons of vibrant paprika
- 1 teaspoon of zesty black pepper
- A kick of heat with ½ teaspoon of cayenne pepper
- A pinch of warmth from ¼ teaspoon of ground cloves
- Prepare 7 sturdy 1-pint canning jars with lids and rings
Step 1
Combine a medley of flavors including applesauce, brown sugar, tomato sauce, vinegar, and an array of spices such as garlic powder, cinnamon, liquid smoke, and a pinch of cayenne pepper in a generously sized pot. Allow this concoction to mingle and simmer over low heat until it thickens to perfection, which usually takes around 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
Step 2
Prior to filling the jars with this savory mixture, ensure they are thoroughly sterilized by immersing them in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. This step is crucial for maintaining the freshness and longevity of your homemade sauce.
Step 3
Carefully ladle the sauce into the now hot and sterilized jars, leaving just a small space at the top to allow for expansion during the canning process. To guarantee a seamless preservation, run a knife along the inner sides of the jars post-filling to release any trapped air bubbles. A final touch involves wiping the jar rims clean with a damp paper towel to remove any residue before sealing them with lids and rings.
Step 4
Prepare a large stockpot by placing a rack inside and filling it halfway with water. Gently lower the filled jars into the pot, ensuring they are spaced apart and submerged in water by at least 1 inch above their tops. Cover the pot, bring the water to a rolling boil, and process the jars for a mere 20 minutes to secure the delectable contents within.
Step 5
Once the canning process is complete, carefully lift the jars from the pot and let them cool on a safe surface. As they cool, listen for the satisfying pop of the lids, indicating a tight seal. Once cooled, store your culinary creations in a cool, dim area, ready to be enjoyed whenever your taste buds crave a burst of flavor.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- Organize your ingredients like a symphony, ensuring each one has a designated spot in your kitchen. Store your apples in a cool, dark place, allowing them to ripen naturally and develop their full flavor potential. As you simmer your sauce to perfection, make sure to use a wide-mouthed pot to allow for evaporation and concentration of flavors. Once your barbecue sauce is ready, transfer it to sterilized jars, sealing them tightly to preserve that savory goodness. Label each jar with love and care, noting the date of creation for future reference. Finally, store your canned sauce in a cool pantry or cellar, away from direct sunlight, where it can age gracefully and be enjoyed for months to come.
