1. 1In a flameproof casserole, combine honey, vinegar, onion, chili, and garlic.
2. 2Bring to a boil over high heat.
3. 3Reduce heat to medium, and simmer for about 5 minutes, or until it starts to thicken. The bubbles will come slower and be larger.
4. 4Stir in tomatoes, paprika, cloves, ginger, and salt and pepper. Cover with a lid, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5. 5Remove the lid, and smash the tomatoes with a potato masher until a chunky salsa-like puree forms.
6. 6Simmer for an additional 2 hours and 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. If you have a splatter screen, it will come in handy during this stage of the cooking.
7. 7Transfer the contents of the pot to a blender. (You may want to do this step in batches. Hot items in the blender tend to expand and splash upwards. Cover with a lid, leaving the center open to release steam. Hold a towel loosely over the center hole.)
8. 8Blend for at least 3 minutes on high, or until the ketchup is smooth.
9. 9Store in an air-tight container in the fridge until the next time you're jonesing for a burger.
