More Recipes For You To Enjoy:Does anyone know where I could purchase this chili sauce already made and jarred/canned? I know this recipe is a labor of love and sadly do not have time to make it right now. The chili sauce reminds me of my late grandmother and I love having some on hand to remember her and to eat with my baked potatoes
You can buy chili sauce at the supermarket in the same aisle where you find the ketchup. It tastes very much like this one sounds.
