Basically a homemade pepper relish that my mom used to make with jalapeños, cayennes, & whatever other pepper was in the garden...

This was the ingredient list on the chow chow I grew up with in New Orleans, it was made by Zatarain's:

Zatarain's Chow Chow contained water, pickle relish (cucumbers, vinegar, salt, alum, turmeric, sodium benzoate preservative), vinegar, yellow mustard seed, salt, turmeric, propylene glycol, soybean oil, and yellow No. 5 (color).

The relish was not a sweet relish but more dilled.

In other words, basically mustard and dill relish.
