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.
