Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Favorite Salsa?

I've been cooking for the past three days and tomorrow is another grill/smoke/drinking day. Been going through lots of salsa/chips for the masses during the process.

So what's your favorite?

Mateos here is TX is pretty good. If you want to try your own… tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, ceranos and some garlic to taste in a blender. Put a little fresh squeezed lime juice in at the end and you’re set

Hell on the red

Best is making your own of course

Until fresh tomatoes come on I use canned fire roasted from Walmart

Bottled tame Jalapeno...cilantro....salt/pepper......minced garlic.....

Lemon/lime juice.......yellow bell peppers.......red onions

I will make some from the garden here, soon. No recipe, I just chop up everything. This year I am going to add some chopped purslane. I can eat a ton of fresh garden salsa. I like using oil and vinegar salad dressing in it!

The wifey makes some great salsa

Another vote for Mateos if Im going store bought.

IMHO, this is the best there is and life wouldn't be the same without it:

5 cans of diced tomatoes, one can of Ro-Tel medium diced tomatoes & chilies, one packet of Mrs. Wages medium or hot salsa mix and 3/4 cup of white vinegar. Bring all to a boil, simmer 10 minutes and chill. Good stuff.

I like homemade and preferably after sitting in the fridge for a day.
Standard stuff…… fine chop or chunked, I don’t mind either way.
Sometimes I roast the peppers and tomatillos

Depends on the funk I’m feeling that day.

Soooo many different ways to make salsa

I like peach and mango sometimes

Tostitos Avacado salsa. My current fav.

Ingredients:
1 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes, with juice

1 28 oz. can diced tomatoes, with juice
1/2 large yellow onion, diced

3 bunches green onions, diced

1-4 jalepeno peppers, boiled for approximately five minutes and minced. I like to add the seeds, but you don't necessarily have to. (Add the peppers last and test frequently, or you might get the stuff too hot.)

2-4 tablespoons minced garlic (to taste)

1/4 to 3/4 teaspoon cumin (to taste)

salt and pepper (to taste)

1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped

2-3 teaspoons lemon juice

Directions:
Take the above ingredients and blend together. If it is too thick, add a little water. It is VERY simple! You can, of course, eat it once blended; but it is even better after refrigerated for 1-3 hours.

Number Of Servings:
This lasts our family of 6 for 4-5 days; but we don't have Anna eating the stuff yet.

Preparation Time:
Less than 20

Herdez, fire roasted casera, their red cremosa and green cremosa. The avocado doesnt suck eirher.

I like Sadie's Hot, both red and green, out of New Mexico. Available at Walmart.

+1 on Herdez...the Salsa Casera por favor

Agreed on the Herdez fire roasted.

This, and also La Costena Mexican Salsa. And the great thing is, La Costena is cheap:

Comes in a bottle, as well.

You got the smoker going?

12 roma tomatoes cut in half, one onion quartered, 4-5 jalapeños cut in 1/2 and a bisected head of garlic wrapped in foil.

Put that on your smoker for 1-2 hours, 200-225 degrees. Squeeze out garlic into blender and put rest in with a bunch of cilantro, juice from a lime and a healthy dash if salt. Blend to consistency you like.

8 tomatillos
3 jalapenos. (or more)
3 cloves garlic (or more)

Boil these for eight minutes.

Two cups chopped cilantro
One lime worth of juice
Tablespoon vinegar
Salt

Put all that schit in a blender.

Put in fridge.
Serve.

That canned stuff from Walmart is surprisingly good and cheap. I browned a little hamburger meat and mixed the Walmart Salsa in and dipped it up with corn chips until it was gone.
