Best salsa in a jar?

[JBoy]

Salsa out of a jar is usually a poor substitute for fresh, but -

Trader Joe's Garlic Chipotle Salsa is pretty damn good. Best out-of-a-jar salsa I've found yet. Anything else good out there?

1. I luvs me some D.L. Jardine's Habanero!!

I've been known to order it shipped-in by the case when having trouble finding it locally.
Jardine's is by far the best jar-salsa I've had.

A cheaper and hotter product is Mrs. Renfro's Ghost Pepper Salsa.

2. regular herdez in the glass jars is pretty good.

5. I like Herdez green

It's more authentic and less expensive than the NYC brands.

9. Herdez 5 Chile Salsa is the best

but, since I haven't seen it in a few years, even at Mexican markets, I don't think it's being imported anymore.

Otherwise, Herdez is the house salsa here.

10. our house salsa is El Pato in the green cans

but I will by herdez in the jar if I have a coupon or they are out of El Pato - it is more expensive, though.

the kids grew up on it, we will go through 2 or 3 cans per meal sometimes, I swear the youngest son eats it like soup.

3. Meh. Hatch salsa is the best here in NM

especially the hot one with the whole jalapeno in the middle.

If I can't do fresh and I can't find Hatch, it's Sriracha for me.

4. Fry's Private Selection Chipotle Salsa is really good (probably a Kroger subsidiary).

.
At Tucson's Guadalajara Restaurant (where Kali and I ate recently), little middle-aged Mexican women
in traditional peasant dresses push carts from table-to-table and make your salsa to order from scratch
with a mortar-and-pestle (unfortunately not at lunch when we went).

6. Pace's Picante

Old Texas favorite. I like almost any salsa, except some of the bottled sauces have sugar in them - Yuck! Must be made in "New York City".

7. Trader Joe's Chipotle Salsa is pretty decent. And it's pretty cheap as well.

8. Mrs. Renfro's

... especially the green stuff, but their other salsas are pretty good too.
