Servings: persons

2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
2 whole Large Onions, Diced
2 Tablespoons Minced Garlic
2 cups Red Wine, Divided
1 pound Ground Beef
1/2 pounds Raw Ground Chorizo
3 cans Tomato Sauce (28 Ounce Cans)
1 Tablespoon Dried Oregano, Or To Taste
1 Tablespoon Dried Basil, Or To Taste
1 Tablespoon Dried Thyme, Or To Taste
1 teaspoon Ground Rosemary
3 whole Bay Leaves
1/2 teaspoons Pepper Flakes
2 Tablespoons Dried Parsley
2 Tablespoons Sugar
2 teaspoons Salt, Or To Taste
1 teaspoon Black Pepper, Or To Taste

1
Heat olive oil in a very large stock pot. Saute onions for a couple minutes over medium heat and add garlic. Saute for 1 minute, then add one cup of red wine. Let reduce for 3 minutes. Add chorizo and ground beef, and cook until no longer pink. There will be a good amount of grease now, just ignore it. It will be skimmed off later, but there's flavor there that you don't want to lose.
2
Add tomato sauce, remaining cup of red wine, herbs, sugar, salt and pepper. Stir and bring up to a good strong simmer. Then lower to a slow simmer, just a few bubbles breaking the surface. This is going to be a long, slow cooking, and you don't want it to burn on the bottom. Cover and allow to simmer, stirring every half hour or so for 3 hours. At the three hour point, skim grease off the top of the sauce, cover and allow to simmer another hour. Feel free to cook longer. The flavor will only improve.
3
Allow sauce to cool completely. Skim off any remaining grease. Have 4 one gallon freezer bags ready (or 3 if you want to have some for dinner that night). Divide sauce evenly between the bags. Keeps well for 4-5 months in the freezer.
