Time 2h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

¼ cup olive oil, divided
1 pound pork ribs, chopped
6 (3.5 ounce) links Italian sausages
1 large white onion, finely chopped
1 ½ teaspoons salt, divided
4 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup red wine, divided
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup water
2 (28 ounce) cans whole peeled tomatoes in juice
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch white sugar
¼ cup chopped fresh basil

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a pot and cook pork ribs until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Cook sausages until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the same plate as the ribs.
  • Drain off some of the excess fat. Reduce heat to medium-low and pour in remaining olive oil. Add onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute; make sure not to burn. Pour in 1/2 of the red wine and scrape up any browned bits off the bottom of the pan.
  • Add tomato paste, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Stir until paste starts to darken, about 2 minutes. Stir in remaining red wine and water.
  • Add tomatoes and their juices, crushing by hand as you add them to the pot. Season with basil, remaining salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to a low simmer. Taste and add sugar if sauce is too acidic.
  • Return ribs to the pot. Simmer, partially covered, adding more liquid if needed, for at least 2 hours. Add sausages back to the pot for the last 45 minutes of cooking. Add fresh basil during the last 15 minutes of cooking. Discard bones before serving.

I'm not a huge fan of tomato sauce, but this one is really good. It's not too acidic or sweet, and it has a really nice flavor. I would definitely recommend it.

This sauce is amazing! I made it for my family last night and they loved it. The flavor is so rich and complex, and it's the perfect sauce for a cold winter night. I will definitely be making this again and again.
