Method

Pasta Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Fusilli

    In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the fusilli pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Ragú Preparation

  1. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large heavy-bottomed pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  2. 3

    Brown the Meats

    Add the hot Italian sausage, beef braciola, and pork ossobuco to the pot. Brown the meats on all sides, approximately 8-10 minutes.

  3. 4

    Deglaze and Simmer

    Pour in the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Let it reduce for 3-4 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.

  4. 5

    Slow Cook the Ragú

    Cover and reduce the heat to low. Let the ragú simmer for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the meats are tender and the flavors meld together.

  5. 6

    Finish the Ragú

    Once cooked, remove the meats from the pot, shred or slice them as desired, and return them to the sauce. Stir in the fresh basil just before serving.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Combine and Serve

    Toss the cooked fusilli with the ragú until well coated. Serve hot, garnished with additional basil if desired.
