2 pounds lean ground beef
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 small onion, diced
2 (12-ounce) cans tomato paste
1 (29-ounce) can tomato puree
1 (15-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, with juice
1 tablespoon beef base, such as Better Than Bouillon
1 tablespoon chicken base, such as Better Than Bouillon
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons steak seasoning, such as McCormick's Montreal Steak Seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried parsley
Vegetable oil, for the baking dish

3 1/2 to 4 cups meat sauce, warm or at room temperature
2 1/2 cups shredded whole-milk mozzarella cheese
2 1/2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
Shredded or grated Parmesan cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. To make the sauce: Heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef, garlic, salt to taste, and the pepper and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until the beef is browned. Set aside.
  • 2. Heat the rest of the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring a bit, until soft. Stir in all of the tomato products. Fill the tomato puree can with hot water, and stir in the beef and chicken base to dissolve. Add the mixture to the saucepan along with the Parmesan, steak seasoning, garlic salt, basil, and parsley, and bring to a simmer.
  • 3. Add the beef to the sauce, reduce the heat to low, and simmer, uncovered, for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Taste and add salt, if necessary.
  • 4. To make the baked pasta: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate.

MILES OF MOZZARELLA BAKED MOSTACCIOLI



Miles of Mozzarella Baked Mostaccioli image

This recipe uses my Powerful Flavor Pasta Meat Sauce. The beauty is in the massive amounts of mozzarella. Don't cook the mostaccioli before you add it to the final baking dish. By allowing the pasta to cook in the sauce, as opposed to water, you will see a perfect al-dente pasta infused with the flavor of the sauce.
