What's Sunday Gravy?

tomato sauce with five or six types of meat and cooked for hours in a large pot
YUM
at the end of the cooking you basically end up with a big plate of meat braised in the sauce
double yum

Oh my GAWD! That sounds like heaven

My dad would cook the sauce for a couple hours with one type of meat. The more the merrier when it comes to food I always say!

Because of this thread I decided to make Thursdays my KramerBooks Bolognese Sauce Day. Only one more day until I have a wonderful meal I may or may not add wine to the tab, but at least I'll ask the wait staff more about their wine recommendations.

In 4 years I'm meeting my oldest sister in Italy for an every-two-year wine/cheese festival. It would be her 50th birthday, and I'll most likely still be on my own. It's definitely an incentive to learn more about the different textures/flavors of wine, and some conversational Italian. Anyone use Rosetta Stone courses?

nice!
italy is fantastic!
sadly, i wasn't interested in wine the 2 times i've visited.....but that's ok, still an amazing trip....and the food! :shock:


mr. dream made a batch of his sauce this past monday, and we tried out his newest recipe for dinner last night. spicy! quite yummy, tho perhaps not quite as 'flavorful' as last year's sauce. unsure if it's the new recipe and/or the tomato crop this year. who knows. still, it was quite delish, and we have about 5 jars of his newest creation to enjoy. still plenty of tomatoes left on the vines, so probably get at least another 5-6 jars of sauce, and i think he's really going to try and hunt down his recipe from last year.

here's the ingredients for the sauce he just made, based on an arribbiata recipe:
fresh roma tomatoes
tomato paste
fresh basil
fresh chili peppers
onions
garlic
red wine
olive oil
salt and pepper
think that's it.

here's the actual recipe he used as a guide:

obviously, changed it up some by adding fresh chili peppers and omitting the sugar.

Is it too early for a frozen pizza?

It's my favorite sauce. Not a fan of any other kind. In fact won't eat any of them.
