Sauce Shop Smoky Chipotle Ketchup 255g

2017 Great Taste Award Winner Heat level 4/10

This was our first recipe and the sauce that kicked off Sauce Shop.

It's a seriously flavoursome ketchup made with chipotle peppers and tomatoes. The tomatoes give it a rich and savoury flavour, while Bramley apples add a slightly sweet fruitiness and the chipotle peppers bring a deep smokiness and a nice level of heat. A chipotle pepper is a Jalapeno that has been smoked until it's dry and crispy and full of lovely smoky flavour.

This sauce is the perfect accompaniment to a BBQ, try glazing on ribs or chicken at the end of cooking.  It’s also great on the side of pizza and fries.  Basically use anywhere you might use ketchup or BBQ sauce!

Comments from the Great Taste judges: ‘This is certainly hot and smoky - the chipotle comes through strongly on the nose and the palate. It is definitely a barbecue sauce with punch. We think it lives up to its description. It is hot, it is smoky, but the depth comes through slowly and lingers and the sweetness enhances it. It has a long finish that remains warm and slightly sweet.’

Ingredients: Tomato (40%), Onion, Bramley Apple, Chipotle Chilli (3%), White Wine Vinegar, Demerara Sugar, Sea Salt, Spices.
