Smoked Jalapeno and Grilled Peach BBQ Sauce recipe
 4 whole ripe tomatoes
 2 medium jalapenos
 1 ripe peach
 1 small vidalia onion
 2 garlic cloves
 1/4 cup brown sugar
 1/4 cup dark molasses
 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

Bring a pot of water to boil.  Score the non vine side of the tomatoes with an "X".   Place in boiling water for about 30 - 45 seconds, place immediately in  ice water.  The skin should peel right off.  Then cut into large dice.

On the grill get a good smoke going with wood chips, this can be done in the oven as well.  Slice jalapenos in have and remove the pith and seeds. Peel, slice in quarters and remove the pit from the Peach. Smoke peach quarters and halved jalapenos for 10-15 minutes.  When the jalapenos are done smoking place them in a ziploc bag and in the freezer for about 10 minutes, then remove the skin.

In a sauce pot mix the vinegar, onion, minced garlic clove and molasses.  Let simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes.  Add diced tomatoes, jalapenos, peaches, brown sugar and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.  Run the mixture through a food mill or a blender and transfer back to the sauce pan and let simmer for an additional 30 minutes stirring occasionally to prevent burning and sticking.

And then you have a delicious and different BBQ sauce for your Washington DC summer BBQ's.
