Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 pound Ground Italian sausage
• 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 28 ounces Crushed tomatoes
• 6 ounces Tomato paste
• 1 cup Beef broth
• 0.5 cup Red wine (optional)
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
• 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley leaves, chopped (optional, for garnish)
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat and add the olive oil.

Step 2

Once the oil is hot, add the ground beef and ground Italian sausage. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Drain any excess fat if needed.

Step 3

Add the diced onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, beef broth, and red wine (if using) to the pot. Stir to combine.

Step 6

Mix in the dried basil, oregano, parsley, crushed red pepper flakes, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid slightly ajar, and let the sauce simmer for 45 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or spices to your preference.

Step 9

Serve the sauce warm over your favorite cooked spaghetti noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
