Paint Stripper (Red Ghost Hot Sauce)

[AldenMiller]

I made my first non Caribbean hot sauce yesterday.  I used all the tricks I learned from reading this forum, food mill, ph tester, xanthan gum, woozy bottles.  The only thing I would change is using less xanthan gum (I wasn't sure how much to use and it's a little too thick).
 

Garlic, Vidalia Onion, and a mess of peppers getting a little smoke and some char.
 

Everyone in a hot bath now.
 

After the food mill.
 

Inverted bottles to sterilize the caps.
 

The end result.

I am pretty pleased with how it turned out.  You can taste garlic and pepper on the front end, about one second later the back of your tongue and throat light up and then it ends with a litle smokey pepper taste, sometimes you get a litle hint of sweetness from the little bit of brown sugar I added.

And all the dog suppliments in the last picture...
 
I don't make my own salsa, I admit it but it's not from New York City!
