Fire Jelly

So, I'm trying to can jalapeno jelly for the first time ever...so far, I've had to go to the store for more pectin...then, I got home to boil the vat of vinegar/sugar/jalapeno mixture and it boils over...I removed it from the burner, put it in a larger pot, and the thing caught on fire. Yes, flames.

I threw on a ton of baking soda to smother it...but am so annoyed. I spent a while picking and prepping the peppers. This will not defeat me.

The irony? I don't even eat jalapeno jelly.
