I came up with this version of Hot Sauce because my husband can't stand onions, and most version of hot sauce have onions in them. He can taste an onion a mile away, poor soul... and since I love onions, it has been quite a challenge to cook without them. He borders on being allergic to them, I think. Anyhoo... I came up with this recipe for Hot Sauce to please his palate, and everyone always asks for the recipe...
Texas Hot Sauce
2 15-oz cans diced Del Monte tomatoes, drained
1 can Rotel
1/2 bunch of cilantro, leaves only, chopped
1-2 jalepenos - seeded and diced
2-3 tomatillos, halved
1 tsp sugar
salt & pepper to taste
Dash of cayenne
Mix all in blender, puree. Serve with Tostitos dipping chips.
I can tomatoes every year, so I use one quart of my canned tomatoes when I make this hot sauce, however, the Del Monte tomatoes seem to have the best flavor, next to home canned tomatoes. I've noticed the quality of tomatoes really makes a difference in the outcome of the sauce.

I was going to ask you if you used tomatillos. They sure do add a nice flavor to salsa. I think it was a good choice if you want to cut the onions. I don't buy much in the way of canned goods, but I do always have canned tomatoes - Muir Glen Organic.
Of course, my husband always has a can of Wolf Brand chili in the pantry. It's not much different from a can of dog food, if you ask me My daughter calls to ask if I have an extra can so they can make hot dogs. People love this stuff!

You are not a true Texan if you don't love Wolf Brand Chili. Just sayin......

I think Ferd has a good chili recipe here somewhere, but I have used Wick Fowler's chili. He gave my husband a case of his chili kit a while back. So, that makes me a true Texan.
Wick Fowler's "Two Alarm" Chili
Wick Fowler, a Texas journalist, was one of the contestants in the first Chili Cook-Off at Terlingua, Texas in 1967.
3 pounds Chili meat*
1 (15-oz) can Tomato Sauce
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cayenne
1 teaspoon Tabasco Sauce
1 level Tablespoon ground oregano
1 level tablespoon ground cumin
6 Red Chili peppers (optional)
4 heaping Tablespoons chili powder
1 level tablespoon Paprika
2 tablespoons flour
Water
Sear meat in skillet with onions and garlic. When meat is thoroughly seared, add the tomato sauce, and enough water to cover the meat. All all other ingredients. Cover with 1/2 inch water and stir, mixing well. Simmer for at least 1 1/2 hours (or longer), stirring occasionally. Towards the end of the cooking time, skim off the fat and add the flour mixed with enough warm water to make a thin paste. Stir well and cook until chili thickens. (Serves 6 to 8)
*(Chili Meat is coursely ground round steak or well-trimmed chuck)

Good grief, that would kill me. I don't eat chili often at all. Just enough to stay a Texan.
