Grape Chipolte Sauce

Unknown

I made the following sauce for pulled pork the other day. It's pretty much the same as the Rasberry Chipolte sauce I posted awhile back. I noticed that substituting Grape jelly, the sauce is much less hotter than used with Rasberry Jam. Perhaps the grape has more sugar and calms down the fire of the chipolte. Anyway, this ones a winner![p]
