FYI: An extra step is not necessary but for my family it is! I saved 3 cups to kick up the heat for my son and husband by adding 3 more pureed chipotles in adobo sauce.

I did add 2 more tablespoons bottled lemon juice to the remaining three cups. and brought back up to a boil then simmered while the other jars were in the water bath, This is extra hot so no need to do unless you have family members like mine that request it hotter!
