How to Make Atomic Hot Sauce

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Roast 10-12 habanero peppers, 5-7 jalapeño peppers, 1 large bell pepper (any color), and 1 head of garlic on the grill, turning occasionally, until the peppers are charred and slightly softened (about 20-25 minutes). This method minimizes fumes inside your home.
  2. Carefully peel the roasted peppers (especially important for the habaneros) outdoors to avoid intense heat and fumes. This is time-consuming, but worth it!
  3. Remove stems and seeds from peppers. Combine the roasted peppers, garlic cloves (remove from their skins), and 1 ½ cups apple cider vinegar in a food processor. Blend until completely smooth.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a medium saucepan. Stir in 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring frequently, for 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken.
  6. Sterilize jars and lids. Carefully ladle the hot sauce into the sterilized jars, leaving about ½ inch of headspace.
  7. Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to ensure safe preservation.
  8. Remove jars and allow to cool completely. You should hear a satisfying ‘pop’ as the jars seal. Invert jars to check seal before storing.
