"If Sunday sauce had a tagline, maybe it would be, Why have spaghetti and meatballs if you can have spaghetti and meatballs, sausage and pork shoulder? Sunday sauce is a classic Italian American dish that has you brown and braise a bunch of different meats in a tomato sauce, and has you simmer that all day long. And then the family comes over that night and eats the sauce with pasta."
"What happens is when all of these meats kind of simmer for many hours together, you get this super, super rich meat braise that is also a pasta sauce. It doesn't take all of Sunday, but it takes a couple hours. So just put it on the back of your burner, go about your day and then have such a good dinner that night."
Sunday sauce combines browned and braised meats in a tomato-based sauce that simmers for hours to build deep flavor. Typical meats include pork shoulder, Italian sausage, meatballs, and various cuts of beef, pork, or lamb for texture variety. The long, gentle simmer melds the meats into a super-rich meat braise that doubles as a pasta sauce. Preparation takes a couple of hours rather than an entire day, allowing the sauce to cook unattended while daily activities continue. The finished sauce is served with pasta for a satisfying family meal.
