Any help you can give would be great!

 

[Rat in the Hat]

I just need help with the sauce.

I've already got the Hamms, and the free candy.

 

[Sheldon]

I just get a can of crushed tomatoes, and a same sized can of tomato paste. Add them in a big enough pot, then add an empty can's worth of water. Let it get to a boil, stir occasionally.

While it's getting to a boil, brown 1 lb of some ground beef in a separate pan, then add it to the sauce. I also like to put in Italian seasoning, thyme, oregano, (baised to the Italian season) and a few splashes of some cheap red wine. I don't know if the wine really does anything, but I like putting it in food whenever I think it will work. Some chopped olives too (I like green). Then just let it all simmer in the big pot while the noodles soften. That's how I roll, and it's tasty as ****.

Real pasta sauce takes 24-36 hours to make.

Are the olives necessary? I really don't like them.

And do I have to use cheap wine? I have a really good Cab in the cellar, and would hate to have to make a special trip to buy the cheap stuff.

Ever get a pot done after all that work and drop it taking it off the stove?

That's how my kiddos learned their first swear words.

But I don't have that long. We're having a "Week Before Super Bowl" party tomorrow.

1 pot?

We do 3 at a time. Around 12 gallons. Then we freeze it. Do it about twice a year.

The olive aren't, no. I just love me some green olives whenever possible.

I would say save the Cabernet for drinking. That way if the sauce turns out nasty, you've at least got something tasty to chase it with.

Might as well go with Classico then. Whatever you will be able to make in that short amount of time will not be better than their jars. Plus, you won't have the mess.

Wait a minute, that was you?

Why did I think that was my then future wife when she first tried to cook for me?

Oh, and if that happened, they would see daddy kick that pot from the kitchen to the backyard

Nah, I usually do 2 at a time. With the pots I have that comes out to about 4 gallons. But more often, as enough of our tomatoes get ripe over the summer.

When you grow your own they don't all come on at once, ya know.

Well, if you say so. I just hate to burn $3.21 per gallon gasoline to buy a bottle of Boone's Farm.
