Let me start out by saying that I couldn't make up my mind as to whether I should make this or not. I scanned through recipes and YouTube videos and the consensus was about 50/50. Some said it was totally worth it, others said it was a total waste of time. So I looked at my pile of tomatoes and thought, I like a challenge. Well, now that I have done it... I am on the Totally Worth It Team! I don't think I will ever go back to store bought ketchup - well, unless I am out of tomatoes - LOL. Here is the recipe I came up with. I know you are going to read this and wonder why in the world would I put apples in it? Well, mainly because I had them and because I wanted to reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe. I like the flavor it added. INGREDIENTS 3 Tbsp olive oil 1 medium onion, diced 2 small apples - peeled, cored & diced (should be about 1/2 cup diced) 4 lbs tomatoes (I used a variety) 2 Tbsp brown sugar 1 tsp hickory smoke flavor (optional) 1 tsp kosher salt 1 tsp garlic salt 1 tsp mustard powder 1/8 tsp ground cloves 1/2 tsp ground allspice 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1 cayenne pepper (optional) 1/4 cup vinegar DIRECTIONS
