I work with several Hispanic guys and they always have some form of homemade salsas to apply to their lunch items. Over the years I've learned that their salsa is about like our BBQ sauces. Ask 4 people how to make it and get 4 very different answers. One thing that seems to be a common denominator is the peppers are the star of the show.
Also, I like their packaging. They put the sauce in plastic drinking water bottles. Portable and the opening works perfect to pour a little on food but big enough to let small chunks through. Then just toss the bottle when empty.
Anyways, I asked the recipe for one I tried and really liked. Here it is.
5-6 jalapeņos grilled indirect for thirty minutes then turn in the flame a little, 1 large tomato wrapped in foil and grilled indirect, remove from grill, blend whole, add a pinch of salt.
That's it! I made this last night with a chunk of mulberry in the fire and cooked along side chicken legs. For only three ingredients it was flavor packed due to the smoke and char gained from the grill. I did put a touch of lime juice in it. I figured I would share since we all have the grills fired up frequently and this is an easy add on. You end up with something that looks like this. Doesn't necessarily look great but it's a great easy sauce if you like spicy.
