Instructions for Grandmas Spaghetti Gravy

* See recipe for Grandmas Italian Sausage In a large heavy pot brown the sausage over a medium heat. Remove and add the short ribs. Brown the ribs. Remove. If necessary, add a couple of tablespoons of olive oil and brown the meatballs OR you can brown them in the oven together with the sausage and ribs. Remove the meatballs and add the garlic and tomato paste to the pan drippings. Cook until the drippings are absorbed. Adjust the tomato paste and drippings until they are well combined. (Add extra tomato paste or remove some of the drippings.) Add the fresh tomatoes, onions, green pepper, parsley, sweet basil, oregano, red pepper and salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Bring to a boil. Add the sausage, ribs and meatballs. Reduce heat and simmer over a VERY LOW heat for two or three hours. Adjust seasonings. About 1/2 hour before cooking is finished add sliced mushrooms, sugar and Parmesan cheese. This is a very rich spaghetti sauce and sooo delicious, you may never want to at any other spaghetti sauce again. If youre lucky enough to have a little sauce left over, its great for pizza. MEATBALLS Combine the ground beef, garlic, eggs, Italian bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and Italian parsley. Form into meat balls. Fry them in the drippings from the sausage and ribs, or if there arent enough drippings, add a little olive oil, browning on all sides.
