Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chop the Vegetables

    Finely chop the onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Set aside.

Cooking the Sauce

  1. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrot, celery, and garlic, and sauté until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 3

    Brown the Meat

    Add the ground beef and pork sausage to the skillet. Cook until the meat is browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 8-10 minutes.

  3. 4

    Add the Wine

    Pour in the red wine and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes until the wine reduces slightly.

  4. 5

    Incorporate Tomatoes

    Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, and beef broth. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.

  5. 6

    Season the Sauce

    Add the dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Stir to incorporate the spices.

  6. 7

    Simmer

    Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the flavors to meld together.
