Ingredients
Instructions
Brown the beef. In a large heavy-bottomed stock pot over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain the rendered fat and add the meat back to the pot.
Cook the aromatics. Add the chopped onion, celery, and garlic and cook until the vegetables soften, about 5-7 more minutes.
Simmer low and slow. Add the rest of the ingredients (except the spaghetti noodles and Parmesan), stir, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer, stir and cover with a lid, and cook for at least 3 hours on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally.
Cook the spaghetti. Follow the package directions and be sure to generously salt the water. Drain and then mix into the spaghetti sauce.
Garnish and enjoy! Serve with grated or ground Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley if desired.
