This is a very good (and spicy) chunky ketchup! Feel free to adjust the recipe to your liking. This makes a very nice Christmas gift too! Use as a ketchup or even as a bar-b-que sauce. *** If you want less burn, use jalapeno peppers or use less of the habanero (omit seeds). *** Some of this along with a can of jellied cranberry sauce makes a really great sauce for party meatballs!!
