Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is Mom's recipe, I like to use it as a base for my sauce. I like to add hot sausage links and either neck bones or a couple of country ribs for flavor. If I add these I will cook it for 3-4 hours so all the flavors come together.
I loooove oregano so I always add more. Fresh basil also adds some great flavor. At this point I will also add at least a cup of red wine and some mushrooms. I remember when Dad went away on business trips Mom would make this sauce. Dad had ulcers so he couldn't eat this very often. I was very skinny back then but always unbuttoned my pants so I could eat more of mom's spaghetti and homemade sauce!
