THICK N' HEARTY SPAGHETTI SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large pot (I use cast iron), quickly and thoroughly brown the ground beef.
• Drain and add mushrooms, followed by garlic (I use at least a tablespoon in this step), parsley (a lot), oregano, sage, and basil.
• Add tomatoes, sauce, and paste; stir together.
• Cook on med-high for 5-10 minutes, then reduce heat to med-low.
• Allow to simmer covered about one hour, stirring occasionally.
• Add garlic, pepper, basil, oregano, sage, and parsley to taste (also sugar).
• Cook covered on med-low for 2 hours.
• Add more seasoning to taste.
• Cook covered on med-low for another 30 minutes-1 hour.
• At this point, the sauce should be thick, cooked down about halfway.
• Serve with your favorite pasta or on slices of bread with parmesan or cheddar.

SPAGHETTI WITH MEAT SAUCE - AUTHENTIC ITALIAN STYLE

Steps:

• In a large non-stick sauce pot, heat 1 Tbsp olive oil over medium high heat. Crumble ground beef into pot (approximately 1 inch pieces). Brown beef, stirring occasionally (I was always taught to stir constantly but this makes your beef gray, let it brown on bottom and only stir occasionally) and breaking up beef as you stir, until cooked through. Drain ground beef, reserving 1 Tbsp fat in pot. Place browned beef in a food processor and pulse until finely ground, about 10 - 15 seconds, set aside.
• Saute carrot and onion in reserved fat over medium high heat until golden, about 4 minutes, adding in garlic during the last minute of sauteing. Remove from heat (this will reduce splattering) and stir in 2 cans crushed Roma tomatoes, remaining 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, basil, parsley, rosemary, thyme, oregano, marjoram, sage, bay leaves, salt, pepper and browned beef. Return pot to low heat and simmer uncovered, 5 - 8 hours (yes minimum of 5 hours), stirring occasionally.
• Add broth to sauce to thin sauce if desired (at about 4 hours sauce will be pretty thick so if you want it any thinner just add broth to desired consistency. Also, once it reaches the thickness you want you can cover it with a lid to reduce further condensation). Remove bay leaves and serve sauce warm over pasta garnished with grated cheeses and additional chopped fresh parsley or basil if desired.
