The addition of peaches to the tomato sauce creates a thick sauce. You will not have to cook the mixture as long to thicken it. Ripe juicy peaches add just the perfect touch of sweetness. This barbecue sauce is simple to make and will always be a hit in our family.

How to process tomatoes:

I will freeze whole tomatoes as they ripen if I don’t have time to process them. After they have thawed the clear liquid can be poured off. This will make a thicker juice and you will not have to cook the barbecue sauce as long.

My family gifted me a Vitamix Blender for Christmas. Did you know with a Vitamix Blender you can blend raw tomatoes, skins, seeds, and all smooth? I washed the tomatoes, cut them into wedges, and blended them for 2 minutes. I had a smooth thick sauce to cook. That really is a time saver not to have to put the pulp through a strainer.

I have had many people ask about what type of tomatoes I use when canning. I will use plum or regular tomatoes. Amish Paste is a favorite of mine when making sauce.

Amish Paste are a meaty tomato which produces thick pulpy sauce. I used a mixture of these and regular tomatoes to make this batch of barbecue sauce.

As you can see, I just cut the tomatoes into wedges to blend them. I blend them raw which is a lot less of a mess.

If you blend the tomatoes for 2 minutes in a Vitamix, you will blend the pulp and seeds smooth. There is no need to strain the pulp. This will give a much thicker juice and you will not need to simmer it as long to thicken it. I love that I can omit the step of putting the sauce through a strainer.

I always add either butter or oil to my tomato sauce before I cook it. That will keep sauce from boiling over. When you boil raw tomato sauce it will foam, splatter, and cook-over making a mess on your stove. Butter or oil will keep the sauce from boiling over. After simmering for 20 minutes the foam will be cooked away.

Add vinegar, Brown Sugar Sweetener Substitute, molasses, seasonings, Worcestershire Sauce, and salt. Simmer for 2 hours.

Ladle the barbecue sauce in to washed and rinsed pint jars. Wipe the rim clean with a paper towel.

After the jars are canned and cooled. Remove rings, check for seal, and wash the jars.

This is the style Vitamix that I have. It was a learning curve on how to use it compared to a Ninja but I love it. It makes the smoothest smoothies and tomato sauce.

I love to use my stainless steel stockpot for canning. It does a wonderful job.

If you are doing a lot of canning, it would be wise to invest in a stainless steel canner. They will last a lifetime. The black and white specked Granite Ware canners chip and leak after a while.

I have bought mostly Ball Canning Jars to use. They can be reuse multiple times and last for years.

This canning tool set is so useful when preserving food. I have an old jar lifter that was my mother’s. It holds so many memories of canning as a young girl.

I often buy Tomato Paste by the gallon of I can find it. Otherwise I use these 12 ounce cans.
