Thank you so much for your wonderful words!! And I'm so glad that you are finding inspiration and helpful information here! God Bless you!!

Love this, I just finished processing all my tomatoes so this will be next year’s recipe! Thank you Lorrie! You are amazing!

OK, I seriously cannot wait to try this and hopefully next year I will get to grow enough tomatoes. It looks so delicious. I’ve downloaded it so that I won’t lose it and I’ve probably watched it like six times.

Yay! A new Lorrie video! I processed the last of the box of tomatoes & have 5 quarts plus two of "juice" from the seed sections. I was considering what to make with it! Chili base is a perfect idea! Yesterday I canned 7 quarts of "pork stew". I was supposed to do the same with the beef today but got sidetracked for too many hours with hubby condensing our deck tomato & pepper plants & covering them all with a thick plastic to get through the next few days cold snap until it warms up again. I'm hoping to salvage some more of what's on the plants before we pull the rest up. It's supposed to get back up in the 60s after the hard frost nights. Tonight I have to strain my beef broth that's been cooking so I don't lose it (it's midnight already and I'm tired) so I can use it for canning tomorrow & beyond. I know you really wanted to know all of that! 😂🤣 So glad to see your smiling face!! Hugs & love & Blessings from Deborah in West Virginia! 🧡

Question? 12 quarts of tomato puree? I have 30 cups of puree cooking tonight and would love to use this recipe, just wondering if I have enough tomato?.

I start out with 12 quarts raw (48C)....but then I cook and reduce it down to about 6-7 quarts....that reduced amount is 28C. Im not sure if you have "reduced" yours already? my suggestion is....you cant add to many onions or peppers....so no worry there. But when it comes to the dry seasonings....just cut my measurements in half....then taste....and add more if needed after tasting it.

I adore you Deborah!! Your comments always bring me joy!! It sounds like you are as busy as we are!! We never seem to be ready for Winter.....and are always scurrying around to quickly Winterize and finish things up quickly before the snow flies. We already got a dusting of the white stuff yesterday..... Ugh, I'm just not made for the snow anymore....

I really want to try this ❤️

I ground up reapers last year and for some darn reason decided to see what they smelled like. Well I found out quick and haven't forgotten!! Thought I was a goner!! Learned a valuable lesson. My eyes were and nose runs thinking about it! !

I'm absolutely fine.....but I sure thought I was gonna die for a few minutes there. It took me about 5 minutes off cam to stop coughing and crying. Whhew!! Thought about editing the whole thing out....but honestly, I think its a good reminder....or information for new to canning people. So I decided to leave parts of it in. Plus, you can all get a good chuckle out of it. :D

Two cups of brown sugar? Wow y’all like your chili sweet! But how many pints and qts does this make?

@millermeadows6359

Well....not overly sweet. Please keep in mind these are "end of the season" tomatoes....and really not sun ripened and naturally sweet all on their own. They have more color than they do taste at this point. And at the end....with a total of 6-7-8 quarts depending on how far you reduce it....that only comes out to less than 1/4C sugar per quart. Ya gotta put it all in perspective. Lol!

I'm wondering, what about those tomatoes that are soft? I mean they are very soft BUT taste good! I've tasted to see because I don't want to toss them. Also for the late tomatoes that get those dark spots on them, do you have to cut that part away? It tastes fine just doesn't look great. I have been taking those and dehydrating them to store to make a powder and paste when needed. I also grind them up for spice. I LOVE putting that in my rubs.

I am so far behind on commenting due to Rogers recent battle with Cancer....my apologies!! Yes, the soft ones can definitely be used as long as they are no soft due to rotting....but soft due to starting to become ripe. And yes, just cut out the bad spots and use the rest of the tomato. I do a lot of dehydrating also. LOVE tomato powder!
