this is a good recipe. my boyfriend & i made batch after batch of this stuff last summer & of course started experimenting with it. we would add habaneros and cayennes & use beer instead of water. freakin awesome. we have so many peppers grow in the backyard in the summer, hot sauce is ideal to use them all :)

Reduced the vinegar to 1/3 cup and added two packs of Splenda and it was perfect!

Boyfriend loves this sauce. Uses up lots of peppers from the garden, too. I put in large squeeze bottle and it stays very well in fridge.

This was fantastic! We did use a variety of hot peppers from our garden, not just jalapenos. We used fresh garlic cloves, only 1/2 tsp salt and about 1/2 cup vinegar. We did end up adding 1/4 cup more because we had more peppers, than the recipe calls for, that needed using up and it became too thick. Will look forward to making this again!

Very good, very easy to make. It's hot, but not too hot. I tripled the recipe, but still used the one cup of vinegar. I used jalapenos from my garden, and deseeded about half of them. I strained the sauce before jarring it. I got 6/12 oz jars, and 2/ half pint jars from the tripled recipe. I canned it in a hot water bath for 10 minutes. I plan to make this every fall! This recipe is from The Jalapeno Cafe website. Try their popper recipe if you still have jalapenos :)

Great sauce! I reduced vinegar to 1/2 cup based on other reviews but then tasted it, and added about 1/4 cup more. Perfect. May have been ok with the full cup, but I stopped at 3/4 cup. Can't wait to make taco's and try this out!

AWESOME! I used 5 cloves of garlic and reduced the vinegar to 1/2 cup, as per other reviewers...so good! As I was cutting the peppers I was worried about how hot this was gonna end up being, but after all was said and done, it had the perfect amount of heat for me! I can't wait for my hubby to come home and try it, I just know he is gonna love it too! From now on, anytime I have an abundance of jalapenos, I will turn to this simple, yet delicious recipe! Thanks for sharing. :)

Though much too hot for me, my husband loved it! I doubled the garlic and reduced the white vinegar to 3/4 cup. Next time I'll reduce the vinegar to 1/2 cup.
