Barbecue Sauce

Wash and rinse canning jars; keep hot until ready to use. Prepare lids according to manufacturer's directions.

Boil tomatoes for 20 minutes and skin. Then process through a Fabio Leonardi Tomato Mill.

Combine prepared tomatoes, celery, onions, and peppers. Cook until vegetables are soft (about 30 minutes). Puree using a fine sieve, food mill, food processor or blender. Cook until mixture is reduced to about one half (about 45 minutes).

Tie peppercorns in a cheesecloth bag; add with remaining ingredients and cook slowly until mixture is the consistency of catsup, about 1-1/2 to 2 hours. As mixture thickens, stir frequently to prevent sticking. Remove bag of peppercorns.

Fill hot sauce into clean, hot jars, leaving ½ inch headspace. Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace if needed. Wipe rims of jars with a dampened clean paper towel; apply two-piece metal canning lids.
