"This is Top Secret's version of Heinz's Premium Chili Sauce. I use it all the time and usually have to run to the store to buy it for a recipe. I am posting this so I won't have to run to the store all the time.Per Todd Wilbur: you can make this into Heinz co*cktail Sauce by stirring in 2 teaspoons of prepared horseradish when the sauce has cooled."

I am living in Australia for the next few years and there's no Heinz Chili Sauce here-- not even close. So I used this recipe and it was great. I did change it by using Heinz Ketchup instead of tomato puree and then omitted the vinegar and used brown sugar instead of plain. I also added a little more of the dried onion flakes. Just be careful to cook on low and keep stirring, I scorched mine by walking away-- but it was still fine.

This recipe is VERY close to Heinz. It has a little more salt than the original and it's missing Allspice. I will be making this again very soon. In my next batch, I will reduce the salt to 1 1/2 teaspoons and add maybe 1/16th to 1/8 teaspoon of Allspice. It doesn't need much but when you compare the two sauces side by side (like I just did), you will get a distinct hit right away of the Allspice with Heinz. It's still a nice sauce and very easy to make and a lot less money than the original ($3.50 for the Heinz). I've never used Tomato Puree before and someone told me to blend 6oz of Tomato Paste with 15oz Tomato Sauce. It worked great! If I double that (2 cans of each), I'll have enough "Puree" for a triple batch of this chili sauce! I used 12oz of the chili sauce and 10oz of grape jelly plus 2 Tablespoons of lemon juice as a sauce to cook my browned pork chops in a crockpot. The sauce works great with meatballs so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Thank you mandabears for posting this recipe!

Just made this recipe! WOW! Awesome! I did add the allspice to the recipe...I also made a 4 batch recipe and canned it! I will be making this again and again. We bake our sausages in it! The Heinz chili sauce is now up to about $5.49 where I live, so this is a great savings because it tastes so great! Thanks!

This is delicious, and better than the bottled version. I followed other reviewer's suggestions, and used maple syrup instead of corn syrup, half tomato paste and half ketchup for the tomato puree (it's what I had on hand), brown sugar for the white sugar, and a dash each of allspice and paprika. The color, texture and flavor are perfect. My brisket is marinating in it, so we will see how it goes!
