Spaghetti Bolognese Sauce (Beef and Italian Sausage) image

I've been working on this recipe for years--tweaking and fussing, and I believe it is about ready. My family and friends love it. I also use it as meat sauce filling for lasagna.

Categories     Sauces

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 lb ground beef
1 lb link Italian sausage
3 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato paste
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes (drained)
1 1/2 cups onions (diced)
1 cup bell pepper (diced)
1 cup mushroom (sliced)
1 cup red wine
3 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 -2 tablespoon sugar
3 teaspoons basil
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons marjoram (dried)
2 teaspoons thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese (grated)
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (grated)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Brown ground beef, season to taste with salt and pepper, drain and set aside.
  • Cut link sausage up into meatball size pieces, brown, drain, and set aside. I use Thomasville Hot. If making sauce for lasagna, remove sausage from casings and brown with the ground beef.
  • Sauté garlic, onion, and bell pepper in olive oil, just until the onions are translucent.
  • Add meat, tomato sauce, tomato paste, diced tomatoes, herbs and spices, mushrooms, sugar, and wine. I use fresh mushrooms, and a red burgandy for a deeper earthy flavor. Omit mushrooms if making sauce for lasagna.
  • Simmer on medium low for at least one hour, stirring occasionally.
  • When ready to serve, mix corn starch with water and add to sauce, along with both cheeses to thicken.
  • When cheese is incorporated, and sauce has thickened, serve over your choice of pasta or use as a meat filling for lasagna.

ITALIAN SPAGHETTI SAUCE WITH MEATBALLS, SAUSAGE AND STEW BEEF



Italian Spaghetti Sauce With Meatballs, Sausage and Stew Beef image

My mother-in-law has a life-long friend named Rosie, a dear Italian woman, who shared with us her family recipe for a hearty spaghetti sauce. I usually omit the ribs, as I'm not that much of a carnivore! Oftentimes I just make the meatballs with the sauce. No need to fry or bake the meatballs, add just add carefully to the hot sauce, then simmer.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE SPAGHETTI SAUCE



Italian Sausage Spaghetti Sauce image

Recipe by Rita Futral, as reported by Helen Dollaghan in the Oct. 27, 1985, edition of The Denver Post. The recipe comes from the first place winner in the Hunt-Wesson national spaghetti contest. Note: The recipe is posted as the original, but I have no experience adding the cheese with such a long cooking time. I'd add it towards the end fearing it would settle and possible stick or, worse, burn.

4 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
salt
pepper
cooked spaghetti
