Drain 3 of the cans of tomatoes, reserve liquid from 2 cans. Mix together everything except liquid in a very large non-reactive bowl with a wooden spoon. Add in reserved liquid to the consistency you prefer. Let sit overnight to allow flavors to meld. Taste and adjust seasoning. Refrigerate for immediate use or can.
