Apple Bbq Sauce For Canning

• 8 cups Applesauce
• 6 cups Brown Sugar
• 32 ounces, fluid Tomato Sauce
• 1-1/2 cup Vinegar
• 4 teaspoons Salt
• 4 teaspoons Garlic Powder
• 3 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons Liquid Smoke
• 2 teaspoons Chili Powder
• 2 teaspoons Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Black Pepper (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoons Cayenne Pepper
• 1/4 teaspoons Ground Cloves

1. Mix all ingredients together in a large stock pot. Bring to a boil, simmer for 1 1/2 - 2 hours or until thickened. It smells wonderful!
2. Fill sterilized pint jars with the hot BBQ sauce, leaving 1/2-inch head space. Process 20 minutes in a hot water bath. Be sure to add 5 minutes for each 1,000 feet elevation. I have to process mine for 25 minutes because we live at about 1,600 feet.
3. Yields 6-7 pints.
4. Note: I prepare my own applesauce by simmering quartered apples until tender and putting them through an old-fashioned food sieve. If you have tomatoes to put up as well, you could make your own tomato sauce.
