Cowboy Candy
Report
Cowboy candy is a spicy and sweet condiment made from jalapeño peppers. The jalapeños are sliced and simmered in a mix of sugars, vinegar, and spices until they're glossy and deliciously zesty. They're the perfect addition to burgers, sandwiches, hot dogs, you name it!

Instructions
- Cut off the 12 large whole jalapenos stems, then slice them into uniform 1/8-1/4 inch rounds. Set aside. I recommend using gloves when working with hot peppers!
- In a medium saucepan, add 1 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar, 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon garlic, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder, and 1/4 teaspoon celery seed,. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves, about 6 minutes.
- Add the jalapeños, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer until the peppers start to look shrunken and glossy, about 6-8 minutes.
- Transfer the jalapeños to a pint-sized mason jar or glass container using a slotted spoon.
- Pour the remaining syrup over the jalapeños until they are submerged. Don't fill them too much with the syrup because it will spill over when you add the lid.
- Cool to room temperature before covering with a lid and refrigerating.
