If it's got a LOT of jalapenos, I'm there - most of the commercial ones just aren't that great, and here in the Northeast, they don't know picante from anything.

The type that accompanies the beer I've got in my hand.
No really.....I like the type that comes out of the Bennigans and T.G.I.Fridays restaurants. It's finally chopped, with just the right amount of herbs and spices that it's not too hot, but yet you've got to keep drinking beer to cool your mouth down.
Store bought has to be.... PACE. But I have found a generic brand from Kroger that's pretty good.

Brad, I just make my own. I don't know how authentic it is, but it's easy and it tastes better, probably because it's fresh. Once the peppers kick in, can't taste anything anymore anyways!
5-6 plum tomatoes, diced
1 large red onion, diced
chopped cilantro
garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
squeeze juice of 2-3 limes
Depending on how spicy you want it - I usually use:
3 diced jalapeno peppers
2 diced habanero peppers

Reason: forgot limes!

If it goes good with chips and makes you want to drink more beer its a good recipe!

I also make my own, but for convenience sake, I have replaced a couple of the fresh ingredients with canned ones.
2 cans Del Monte stewed tomatoes
2 cans Rotel
1 Bell Pepper
1 White or Yellow Onion
3 Jalapenos
1 cup cilantro
Healthy amount of Lemon Pepper
Combine in blender or chopper and refrigerate for a couple of hours to thicken.
Result is a salsa that has a subtle heat that continues to build requiring a plethera of cold beverages to subdue.

But if you could can that I would buy some, hotter the better!

Thanks, CPT Terry!
Does your dislike of cilantro go back to RVN? Probably because we use that as a garnish on everything, often in combination with chopped green onions and thin-sliced white onions. I do notice that many of my friends here don't like it as well. Funny thing is, I love cilantro, but don't like flat leaf parsley.
I agree with Jim and the rest of the folks - salsa is great because it makes you drink more beer!

No problem, P! It's so simple I can't claim it as my own. I forgot to note, fresh chopped garlic would probably be better if you like. I just hate chopping garlic, so I use powder garlic every chance I get, much to my wife's chagrin and horror. I need to pick up one of those garlic chopping implements someday.

I cheat with pre-chopped garlic in a jar. Out here, you find it in the produce section.
Unless I want a roasted taste, then I go to the effort of fresh.
