- 1 large Spanish onion, chopped
- 6 clove garlic, sliced thin

Low and Slow, Just Like It Should Be
This Sunday sauce is the real deal—slow-simmered, rich, and built to fill the house with that unmistakable aroma.
Loaded with beef, sausage, and a slow-cooked pork base, then finished with U Wanna Pizza Me, it brings bold, herby Italian flavor that only gets better the longer it cooks.
Preparation
- In a large stock pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and U Wanna Pizza Me seasoning. Sauté until fragrant.
- Add ground beef and cook until browned.
- Deglaze the pot with white wine, scraping up any browned bits.
- Stir in tomato products and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add pork butt and Italian sausage to the pot.
- Pour in about 1 quart of water, reduce heat to low, and let the sauce simmer slowly for about 6 hours.
- Stir occasionally as the sauce thickens and develops flavor.
- Remove meats (or serve alongside), then spoon sauce over cooked pasta.
Pro Tip:
Keep the heat low and steady—this sauce isn’t about rushing. The longer it simmers, the deeper the flavor gets.
Make It Your Own:
- Add meatballs for a full Sunday spread
- Use red wine instead of white for a richer flavor
- Toss in fresh herbs like basil at the end
- Shred the pork back into the sauce for extra texture
What To Serve It With:
Serve over linguine or your favorite pasta with sausage on top. Don’t forget crusty bread for soaking up every last bit.
