Ingredients:
1 28oz can of crushed tomatoes
2 6oz cans of tomato paste
1 tbs garlic powder
1 tbs oregano
1 tbs salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tbs sugar
1 tbs dried basil
2-3 country style ribs on the bone (or a 3/4 lb of pork scraps)
2-3 chicken legs
Directions:
Sprinkle both sides of the meat with the garlic powder, oregano, salt & pepper.
In a large pot, brown the chicken and pork. Do not drain the fat from the pot.
Add the crushed tomatoes and tomato paste. Wash out the cans to get all the paste, adding a 1/2 can of water or so to the sauce.
Add sugar, salt, pepper and additional garlic, oregano & basil as needed.
Simmer for 3-4 hours.
If you are making meatballs, add them in the last 20 minutes.
For a little extra flavor, you can add a little fat from the meatballs to the sauce whenever the meatballs are ready.
Notes:
The key to the sauce is the fat from the meats.
