You can make this sauce as hot as you want by adding up to a total of 4
dried Chipotle chiles. Cover chilies with warm water. Let stand until
softened, about 1 hour. Drain and finely chop. Cook and stir bacon and onion
in a 2−quart saucepan until bacon is crisp; stir in chilies and remaining
ingredients.

Makes about 4 cups sauce.
