Home made Ro-Tel???????

[txbbqman]

I have been pondering this idea for some time now, ever since talking to Rivet about canning. I have some ideas but was curios what every one else thought.

Has anyone ever tried to make their own Ro-Tel?

If so, how did you do it?

This is off of recipezaar.com, It's pretty good.Ingredients

• 1 1/2 quarts peeled chopped seeded tomatoes (about 4lbs)
• 12 jalapenos or hot chili peppers, diced
• 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Place in 4 quart saucepan, and simmer until reduced to 1 quart.
2. (Measure 1 quart water into saucepan in advance, and mark on outside of pan, to help you judge).
3. The cans at the grocers are 10oz in size, so freeze in 1 cup portions.
4. This way you can adjust the hot peppers to suit yourself, and making small batches is so easy!
5. Remember, freezing makes the peppers hotter.

We made some stuff like that this summer...if you don't have a pressure cooker you will want to get one for processing.
