Lost a recipe...help!

There was a hab recipe posted awhile back that went on for 2 pages.  Some the ingredients were the habs, onion, carrot, vinegar, lime juice, brown sugar(?), and a dollop of honey.  I can't remember whose recipe it was.  Not much help, I know.  If it rings a bell with anyone, help me out, please.  Thanks.  I'm still searching the forum.  I think it was a Caribbean Red Hab sauce...
 
 
Found it!!
 
I figure the recipe in question is http://thehotpepper.com/topic/21371-caribbean-red-sauce/ given Roguejim posted right below it:

6-8 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 cup peeled, roughly chopped carrot (have tried baby carrots as well)
1 cup roughly chopped red onion (have tried red yellow & white all are good)
12 Caribbean red habanero chiles,stemmed (or 8 habs and 2 bhuts if you want a screamer)
1 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 cup water (to simmer carrots & onions)
2 teaspoons sea salt
2 teaspoon sugar
1 Large dallop of honey
4 T fresh Lemon juice
4 T fresh Lime Juice
 
Roast the garlic and habs in a skillet over medium heat, turning regularly until soft and blackened in spots, 10 to 15 minutes.  Cool and peel garlic.
In a small saucepan, combine the carrot and onion with the water.  Partially cover and simmer over medium-low heat until the carrots are thoroughly tender, about 10 minutes.  Pour into a blender jar, add the roasted garlic and habs, salt and sugar and lime and lemon juice, vinegar and honey.  Blend until smooth. pour back into saucepan and simmer till you reach your desired consistncy 20-25 min blend again and pour into sterile jars or bottles and let cool store in the refrigerator for at least 2 weeks before opening to let everything gell. enjoy!
