    I am making this again to add that special smokey richness from the aged dried peppers to use for a great burger recipe with caramelized onions and Gorgonzola.

    I always bought my chipotle peppers in adobo in a can! Now I have a home-made recipe, that sounds super easy, too! Thanks! These are great for making Mole sauces.

    Gives me an idea Jim since I have so may peppers and a case of home made catchup I could cook up a huge batch of this and can them.

    Well Jim baby, I made these again and used 20, yes 20, dried chipotles for a double batch. ;-)~~ I cannot tell y'all how delicious this homemade version is and how delightful your house smells when cooking them down. Try it - you'll be amazed.

    Adding a pic or two....hugs, Vickie

    Hey Jim sweetie - just wanted to pop in and say out great this recipe is. I've made it at least 3 times now and use them in everything. I am going to try those dried serranos you suggested and lift these beauties even higher off the ground. Thanks again....you are the man! ;-)~ Vickie
