"Chili sauce" is a sauce that can be made with tomatoes and spicy peppers or just peppers. Mostly, Americans will use a sweet, tomato based, bottle sauce of the Heinz brand. I've never used the stuff myself but these days, I'll use a Chinese style chili sauce.

I also use this sauce too. Sometimes, two sauces are better than one. The weird thing about it is that it's in the same jar as strawberry jam. It even looks like strawberry jam. That's just asking for trouble! I don't know what's in this stuff either but it has a nice prickly spiciness.
