1. Combine all in a large pot.
2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until the tomatoes a tender.
3. Time will vary due to the firmness of the tomatoes.
4. Should take about 1 hour.
5. Pack into hot, sterile jars and seal.
6. Let cool completely (I have never found it necessary to use boiling water bath, but feel free to if you feel safe-10 minutes should do it for pint and 6 oz jars).
7. If apples are plentiful, they can replace the tomatoes-just as good that way.
