Four Alarm Firehouse Salsa

Submitted by Rescurat

"This is a favorite snack food around the station house. This makes around 4 to 6 quarts, so scale accordingly. I usually use the peppers whole, but the heat can be regulated by removing veins and seeds from the peppers. The peppers may also be roasted on the grill."
