This has Way too much sugar!! Next time I will leave out the brown sugar and only put in 1/4 cup of white sugar.

This is the best ever salsa recipe! I first made this with my in-laws (we had never made salsa before). We were blown away with how great it turned out. I now make double batches any chance I get. I give out jars to friends and family, who keep asking me for more. Several people have asked me for this recipe, and friends of friends are even requesting it. It's quite the talk of the town! The changes I make are eliminating the banana peppers, and possibly adding one jalapeno for a little kick. I also use a food processor to chop the onions and peppers up (this saves a lot of time/headache). I also add a bunch of cilantro about 30 min before it's done cooking. I have also cooked this in a large crock pot with the lid sideways. It works fine, but takes about double the cooking time. I really wish I could give this recipe more than five stars!!

This is awesome! Made a bunch to give away as gifts. I have people fighting over it and stealing jars from each other.

Big props for this recipe, probably the best that I've ran across! We killed 2 jars of this in about an hour at Thanksgiving and there were only 3 of us. This salsa has an amazing taste with the perfect amount of heat. I made some changes as well just out of personal preference. I did cut the sugars back some as others had indicated. Also substituted fresh habenero peppers from the garden instead of banana along with some chilpotle peppers in adobo sauce which even enhanced the flavor just that much more. In addition we added corn, black beans and cilantro to our preference. I think this will easily be my "go to" recipe for salsa from here on out so thanks for sharing!

Made salsa for the first time recently. This was a big hit with everyone I've served it to. Have passed on the recipe to others at their request.

I thought it tasted a little too sweet. I'd probably try leaving out some of the sugar and adding some jalopenas. However, not a bad salsa :

Awesome recipe. I made a few changes.. I added tomatilloes and corn, but kept everything else pretty much the same. I tripled the recipe, and it is so good the jars are just flying off the shelf.

This salsa is excellent. BUT whatever you do, CUT down the sugar! I used 1 T. of each brown and white and it still has plenty of a sweet undertone to it. Otherwise great texture, thickness and flavor.

O...M...G! This is amazing salsa!! I add cilantro and jalapenos for our taste, use fresh garlic. We don't add the bell peppers or banana peppers, just because that's not the taste we are going for, but I imagine you can't go wrong with this recipe! Awesome!
