Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, simmer the garlic in oil for about 30 seconds while stirring. Add the beef, sausage, and onion. Continue stirring.
- 2
When the onions are translucent and the meat is browned, add the wine to deglaze the pot. Make sure to scrape the fond.
- 3
Add the tomatoes and water, stirring as you go. Rinse the basil leaves and add to the sauce. Optionally, you can just tear the basil instead of chopping.
- 4
Add the remaining ingredients. Reduce the heat to a simmer and stir as needed throughout the next 4 hours.
Note: It's important that you don't allow the sauce to stick and burn on the sides or bottom of the pot.
- 5
Serve over your favorite pasta and enjoy with family and friends!

Slow Cooker Sunday Sauce/Gravy Slow Cooker Sunday Sauce/Gravy
I call it sauce, but I have family and friends that call it Gravy. That is fine with me. The bottom line is that it is so delicious, no matter what you call it.If you have little ones or very little time to cook, this is the perfect dish to make. I would love to make this on the stove-top, but do not have the time, so I decided to try it in a slow cooker. It makes a lot, so either invite people over or be prepared to eat a lot.The sugar helps to eliminate the bitterness of the canned sauces. You can use other meats, instead of stew meat. I have heard people use ribs, which I will try one day. Sounds good to me.Enjoy!

I thought of a sesame sauce for ramen noodle salads and bang bang chicken.The sauce is pretty sweet, so adjust the sugar as you taste.If you plan to serve this to children, replace the sake for water as you won't burn off the alcohol. Recipe by 1630412

Julie’s Homemade Italian Tomato Sauce (a-k-a Sunday Gravy) Julie’s Homemade Italian Tomato Sauce (a-k-a Sunday Gravy)
I’ve been playing around with this recipe for years, trying to perfect it. I got the gist of it from my mother, but I’ve tweaked it to suit my taste. By the way, if you’re familiar with Philadelphia lingo, there’s an ongoing debate as to whether it’s called “sauce” or “gravy”. My logic is, if you’re cooking meat in it for flavor, then it’s definitely GRAVY!

Tomato Sauce Tomato Sauce
I learned this while I was abroad. This is an easy version that's light on the oil. It's a simple and delicious all-purpose sauce with no frills!Be sure not to burn the garlic when cooking it. You can make various versions by adding meat, vegetables, white sauce, sour cream, curry powder, etc. If you want to have a thicker sauce, you can add some katakuriko potato starch to adjust the thickness.
