Sunday Gravy and Pasta

[Quiganomics]

Craving Italian today, so raided the freezer to see what I could throw together. Made some Sunday Gravy with sausage, beef contry ribs, and pork baby back ribs. Seared the meats, added 3 28 oz cans of crushed tomatoes, a diced white onion, 3 cloves of garlic, and about 1.5 cups red wine to deglaze the dutch oven. Simmered for 4 hours and topped onto somw penne. Sides are some homemade breadsticks and sauteed green beans.

The meats.

Seared.

Assembled.

Simmered.

Plated.

I don’t hear gravy much elsewhere, reminds me of a chef from Philadelphia/Miami who got on a show and kept saying it’s f’n gravy. It ain’t sauce it’s f’n gravy! Actually that’s pretty much the title of his book.
I’d break the diet for that, or at least have a big bowl of gravy. Looks great!

My Italian side of the family and my Nordic side of the family argue all the time about this, but Nana Rose said it's gravy...so it's gravy.

I love Sunday gravy/sauce. Lots of versions, but most have a base of pork ribs, Italian sausage, a third meat, onions, tomatoes, garlic, and a handful of herbs/spices, simmered for many hours. Thanks for the post -- reminds me that I need to make some again.

Looks good from here whatever you want to call it...

Well that settles that, not going to argue with Nana...

Its is tomato sauce until you add the meat, then it is gravy. Ate a lot of pork neck bones in my youth!

Nope. For a sweet old lady from Florence, she had no fear and was as frightening as a mountain lion.

Nice looking gravy. I have read so many Italian cookbooks that I have no problem with gravy. Sauces are for the French.
