From another forum, here's pics of the last batch of sauce I made.


.........................................................................
Okay guys, this is how I make my sunday gravy. I find this recipe very closely resembles the way my grandmother Dragoni makes her sauce, but with a few tweaks I've made. Taste is about the same, I just bulked up and made a few things easier. (do you REALLY want to chop 3-4 BULBS of garlic? Me neither.)


I'm gonna let the pictures do most of the talking here guys. If you haven't eaten yet, prepare to get HUNGRY. This recipe will feed roughly 1-2 city block.


[img]

INGREDIENTS: 6 lbs italian sausage, 4lbs meatballs (i use precooked ones to save time), a shitload of vidalia onion (chopped), Chopped garlic in water (roughtly 8oz... 1/2 of a 12oz jar), FRESH parsley, 10pack can of ground peeled tomatos (pastene kitchen ready), 10pack can of Hunts tomato sauce, 2X32oz diced tomatos, 2X8oz cans of tomato paste, coarse ground black pepper, ground white pepper, crushed black pepper, Bay leaf, sweet basil, oregano, ground hot pepper (a tiny pich - secret ingredient type of thing), and some sutter home white zin.

pardon my french, but add a fuck-ton of meat. Literally. Make sure meat is BROWN and DELICIOUS.

[img]

[img]

Simmer. Skim fat. Stir every 10 min or so. Play guitar for 6-8 hours, then EAT PASTA FOR # WEEKS STRAIGHT.

Thanks for reading guys! If you have any questions (I was very vague, I know) feel free to ask. MANGIA!

Reverend:

The sauasage is really where the flavor comes from. Don't despair, just add some salt, fennel seed, and some finely diced red and green bell pepper and you will come VERY close to replacing the flavor of the sausage. You'll still be lacking all that delicious fat, but as a veggie you're already used to that.

i think you meant # to leave it open-ended, depending on varying sizes of bellies and appetites. some people might be able to eat for 3 weeks straight off that, while others may need 5 weeks to devour it all.

My girlfriend and I ripped through this entire batch in about 2.5 weeks alone. If you've seen me, I'm by no means a fattie, it's just so good! Also, you can literally use it so many ways. Lasagna, Spaghetti and Meatballs, Meatball subs, Baked Ziti, or my own favorite - standing next to the microwave at 3 a.m., stoned, munching on sausages.


I have one of those little vacuum sealer machines. I pack the sausage and meatballs 4 per bag and seal them. Then I keep a couple days worth thawed and freeze the rest.

meatball%20maniac said:No homemade meatballs = fail


No fail.

Meatballs are retardedly simple and get most of their flavor from the sauce. While I love making homeade meatballs I can't fit my big skillet on the stove next to that 24 quart pot, and it's already a pretty busy 8 hour process. Homemade meatballs are GREAT and definitely a bit better, but I reserve that for special occasions/vacation when i can afford the extra time/effort/expense. As it is, this sauce is around $100, if you add up the ingredients. I almost always take 4 pounds of prepared balls for $8 over $20 worth of ground beef + breadcrumbs, spices, etc...


Sausage, on the other hand, I am extrememly picky about. You will find NO generic cheapo shit in my sauce. Either Peri, or fresh homemade shit.

Not excuses. I'm sorry your irish ass doesn't get it, but any real italian american knows the flavor comes from the pork and sausages. Meatballs are to keep the kids table happy. (and the irish in-laws, of course.)

You make 4lbs of meatballs in 30 minutes? I'd love to see the skillet you use.

Again, I don't dislike homemade meatballs at all. For me the meatballs are an AFTERTHOUGHT, not a necessity. Sometimes I do meatballs, sometimes Bracciole, sometimes pork chops, lamb, veal, ground beef, ground pork, shredded pork, there's a million meats you can use instead of meatballs. I just throw these meatballs in because they're CHEAP, GOOD, QUICK, and taste very good.

childhood? I would say that there is way way way way way too much stuff in there. The sauce that they make is good, but it's a lot simpler than that and mostly just tomato paste. I always end up putting a lot more salt and cheese in it than I usually would.

I typically cook the meatballs in the oven so they aren't completely done, but well enough where they will finish after simmering in the sauce for a few hours. I do not disagree with the butcher shop you listed as substitutions.

No sugar. Sugar is when you fuck up the sauce and find it bitter. The sugars from the brown sausage, tomatos, and the sweetness of the wine, oregano, and basil should be MORE than enough. My grandma would spit on you for using sugar. Or being black. But that's another story. Racist grandmas are hilarious.

Agreed, I LOVE using the san marzano tomatoes, but GOD at this volume I could never afford that. If I made a small batch, I would. The difference is HUGE.

Also, unfortunately, the stores around here don't carry the San Mar Tomatoes consistently. Sometimes Stop n Shop has em, but not every time. :(

Fresh garlic is better, but GOOD GOD I would puke if I needed to cut that much garlic, and I REFUSE to use pressed garlic in my sauce. Those little bits of visible garlic make me HORNY for sauce!

my mom's sauce is awesome and i cannot take her out to eat italian food for fear of seeds...she can't handle tomato seeds in her sauce..i'm sure that would be my mom's only critique.. strain the tomato sauce first to remove the seeds

Have a bad day, did we? I think you prefer eating a different type of sausage altogether.

Call me crazy, but I think you'd need to try TASTING something before calling it mediocre. And my great grandmother, grandmother, and father have always referred to a big pot of sauce and meat as "sunday gravy", I also alternate and call it sauce often too. Why would you find this to be an issue?

Get a life, stop trolling. I'm the one eating it, not you.

Simple is always good. Especially when mom makes it. My mother used to just throw ground beef, salt, pepper, and plain tomato sauce in a pot and it was still wonderful!

I assume Aaron wouldn't go for eating the sauce out of the pot that has meat in it, eh?

arrowhead: minus the meat, put a price tag on this. I'm probably going to do it tomorrow night/day since I will hopefully be snowed in.

Also, two things
1) look into how to make cheese balls. Carina's mom makes them and they are AMAZING. I devour those things. I want them right this minute.
2) think about making some of your own meatballs, here is the reason why... the golden pocket! wrap and hide cheese inside the meatballs.

No idea on the ounces, but a 10-pack is the big huge cans you can find in stores like wal-mart. If you were using 32oz cans, I'd try around 5 of each.

[Dec 11,2009 8:11pm - ArrowHeadNLI ""]
1) Yes, red wine is usually used here. I don't like it, so I use zinfandel.
2) Port is fine, due to #3
3) In that 24 QUART pot of sauce, I use a total of maybe 3/4 of a cup of wine. If you're adding a lot, you don't need to... it will make the sauce seem greasy. Just a little splash at the end before you let it simmer.

Also, towards the middle when I add my big cans of tomatos, I add roughly 20oz of water. This is not to dilute the sauce, it's simply because when you simmer the sauce for 6+ hours it's going to reduce a lot. This way you're losing water, and not losing delicious.

Hoser said:Arrowhead, it's called sauce...not gravy.


To clear this up for the retarded:

Gravy IS a sauce. It's a SAUCE made from MEAT drippings. What the fuck do you think flavors my sauce? If this were marinara, alfredo, or something similar, I'd say SAUCE. When it's a big fucking pot of MEAT, it's gravy. 90% of italians agree with me, and the other 10% are guidos anyway.

Yes, the bottom can burn very quick. I set a kitchen timer for 7 minutes and simmer on LOW heat. My girlfriend and I take turns stirring and skimming the fat, but still it's an all-day event. Usually I either stay in the kitchen with a guitar strapped on or I'll stand at the counter reading a book.

To clear this up for the retarded:

Gravy IS a sauce. It's a SAUCE made from MEAT drippings. What the fuck do you think flavors my sauce? If this were marinara, alfredo, or something similar, I'd say SAUCE. When it's a big fucking pot of MEAT, it's gravy. 90% of italians agree with me, and the other 10% are guidos anyway.
