Ingredients: 2 lbs sweet Italian sausage; 2 lbs ground chuck; 2 large white onions; 12 garlic cloves; ½ cups crushed tomatoes; ½ cups diced tomatoes; 1 tablespoon italian seasoning; 1 tablespoon dried basil; 1/2 tablespoon granulated garlic; 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes; 4 tablespoons olive oil

Servings: persons

1
Combine and brown sausage and ground beef in large dutch oven, or other heavy-bottomed pan. Drain and set aside.
2
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in same dutch oven over medium high heat, and add red pepper flakes, chopped onion and garlic. Cover and cook until onions are translucent.
3
Add tomatoes, seasonings, browned meats and remainder of olive oil and mix well.
4
Bring to low boil, then lower heat and simmer for 30 to 60 minutes, stirring often.
5
You can choose to omit the red pepper, but my family prefers the extra kick! The granulated garlic can also be omitted if you don't care for a strong garlic flavor. I use the 102 oz. food service-sized cans of crushed and diced tomatoes (each can contains 24 half-cup servings). You can buy these at warehouse stores like Sam's Club, BJ's or Costco.
