Philly Cheese Steak

Next time we will toast the buns a lil or at least warm them. Season the meat more and have the butcher slice the meat really thin, I think it would be more tender but overall very good :D
We used some cheap steaks we got on sale. Will be having these again for sure

Jo Mama's Famous Spaghetti Sauce

Jo Mama's Famous Spaghetti Sauce

I browned my burger/sausage and onions, threw it in the crockpot, threw in the rest of the ingredients and let it cook on low for 6 hours.
I used half ground beef and half sausage. I had no tomato paste and had to use tomato sauce instead, VERY good and even has a kick to it..YUMMY! Oh also had to use fettuccini sp? noodles, we were out of spaghetti noodles. I didnt use any wine in this
p.s it was even better the next day omgosh makes alot so freeze half for later NUMMY

Ingredients

• 2 lbs Italian sausage, casings removed (mild or hot)
• 1 small onion, chopped (optional)
• 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
• 2 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
• 2 cups water (for a long period of simmering for flavors to meld. If you don't want to simmer it as long, add less)
• 3 teaspoons basil
• 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
• 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4-1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup red wine (a good Cabernet!)
• 1 lb thin spaghetti
• parmesan cheese

Directions

1. 
   

   In large, heavy stockpot, brown Italian sausage, breaking up as you stir.

2. 
   

   Add onions and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until onions are softened.

3. 
   

   Add garlic, tomatoes, tomato paste, tomato sauce and water.

4. 
   

   Add basil, parsley, brown sugar, salt, crushed red pepper, and black pepper.

5. 
   

   Stir well and barely bring to a boil.

6. 
   

   Stir in red wine.

7. 
   

   Simmer on low, stirring frequently for at least an hour. A longer simmer makes for a better sauce, just be careful not to let it burn!

8. 
   

   Cook spaghetti according to package directions.

9. 
   

   Spoon sauce over drained spaghetti noodles and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
