Instructions

  1. 1 Submerge 6 empty half-pint jars on a rack in a large pot of water. Cover and bring to a rolling boil, then reduce heat to low to keep jars warm until ready to fill.
  2. 2 Combine tomatoes, yellow peaches, onion, vinegar, sugar, raisins, lime zest and juice, ginger, salt, cinnamon, and red pepper in a wide, nonreactive 4-quart pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Once it bubbles, reduce heat to medium; simmer gently, stirring often, until mixture is thickened and a spoon drug through leaves a trail that doesn't fill in immediately, about 1 hour. Toward the end of the cooking, make sure to stir every minute or so to prevent scorching. Remove from heat.
  3. 3 Working with one jar at a time, remove empty jars from canning pot. Using a wide-mouth funnel, carefully ladle jam into jars, leaving 1/2 inch for headspace. Use a clean wooden chopstick to work air bubbles out of jars. Check headspace again and add more chutney if necessary to bring to 1/2 inch from the top.
  4. 4 Wipe jar rims, apply lids and rings (not too tightly), and return jars to canning pot. Cover pot and return water to a rolling boil. Process for 10 minutes. Turn off heat, remove pot lid, and let jars stand in the cooling water 5 minutes to help ensure a good vacuum seal.
  5. 5 Move jars to a folded kitchen towel or wooden cutting board to cool completely before checking seals. Any unsealed jars should be refrigerated and eaten promptly. Store sealed jars in a cool, dark place. Sealed jars are shelf-stable at least 1 year.

Instructions

  1. 1 Place peaches, tomatoes, onion, bell peppers, cherry peppers, jalapeños, garlic, sugar, vinegar, liquid smoke, herb seasoning, mustard seeds, canning salt, black pepper, celery seeds, ginger, and cinnamon in a large stockpot. Bring to a boil. Cook, stirring until peaches and vegetables begin to brown, scraping the bottom of pot frequently to keep from scorching, about 1 hour.
  2. 2 Lower heat and simmer until mixture is softened and slightly reduced, 30 more minutes. Remove from heat.
  3. 3 Purée mixture using a blender until smooth. Strain mixture, about 1 cup at a time, through a fine mesh strainer. Push mixture through strainer with a ladle. Discard fibrous portions of tomato skins remaining in strainer. The sauce should be glossy and thick. Stir in tomato paste, return to blender and purée until smooth.
  4. 4 Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack barbeque sauce into the hot sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
  5. 5 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Add more boiling water, if necessary, to bring water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for at least 30 minutes.
  6. 6 Remove the jars from the stockpot and place on a heat-proof surface several inches apart until cool. Press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.
