"This recipe has been a work in progress for many years and we finally have it how we like it. Rich and meaty. You can simmer this for 30 minutes and serve or simmer all afternoon. It's good either way. You can also place this in a slow cooker when it's finished and let it cook on low for several hours."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
In a large skillet or dutch oven, combine ground round and italian sausage and begin to brown over medium high heat. As the meats are browning, add the yellow onion, green pepper, salt, basil, oregano, bay leaf, onion powder, black pepper, red pepper flakes, parsley and garlic; continue to brown. You want to get a nice crust on the meats, it adds so much more flavor to the sauce.
Step 2
Once you have nice browning on your meats, add the red wine. Stir well and let simmer 3-4 minutes to burn off a bit of the alcohol.
Step 3
Add tomato sauce, tomao puree and tomato paste. Stir well, reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes to two hours. Serve over spaghetti noodles, linquini or penne. Add a glass of good red wine and garlic bread. Heavenly.
