"This is a recipe that I clipped from an old Better Homes and Gardens issue. It was sent in by a reader, George Scangos. The original recipe called for reducing the sauce to 3 cups, but I never do. We serve this with pasta. You can slice the meat and spoon the sauce over both the meat and the pasta, or cut the meat up and mix it all together."
