"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Directions:
Brown meat in a skillet and drain. Add chopped onion, garlic, and green pepper and cook for 2 minutes. Combine all remaining ingredients except beans, cornmeal and cheese to large pot, bring to boiling then reduce heat to simmer for at least one hour. Add beans and cook additional 30 minutes. Stir through the cornmeal which will help to thicken the sauce. If sauce starts to get too thick, add a little water or beer, and if it’s not yet thick enough, continue to simmer until desired consistency is reached. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle grated cheese on top of each bowl.
