Recipe View In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, cook the Italian sausage, lean ground beef, minced onion, and crushed garlic over medium heat until the meats are browned and the onion is translucent. Be sure to crumble the beef as it cooks. Drain off any excess fat. (20 minutes)
Recipe View Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and water, ensuring everything is well combined. (5 minutes)
Recipe View Add the sugar, dried basil, Italian seasoning, fennel seed, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to incorporate all the seasonings. (2 minutes)

Mar 14, 2023I was skeptical about the sugar, but it really balances the acidity of the tomatoes. I simmered it for 3 hours and it was amazing!
