Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 2 carrots, finely diced
  • 2 stalks celery, finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 italian sausages, casings removed, 1 sweet, 1 hot
  • 1 lb ground sirloin
  • salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon italian seasoning
  • ½ cup red wine
  • 28 oz crushed tomato
  • 16 oz beef broth
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 lb penne pasta, cooked to box instructions
  • parmesan cheese, shavings

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large pot, set on medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the onions, celery, carrots, and garlic until they are soft, about 10-15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add garlic and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the ground beef and the sausages. Season with salt and pepper, and break up the meat with a spoon and frying until no longer pink.

  4. 4

    Next, add the tomato paste, Italian seasoning, and red wine. Stir and reduce until the wine has almost completely evaporated.

  5. 5

    Now add all the remaining ingredients, except the parmesan and cream. Stir to ensure everything is well mixed.

  6. 6

    Simmer for 30 minutes to 3 hours. The longer the simmer, the deeper and more concentrated the flavor.

  7. 7

    Stir in the parmesan and cream to the sausage bolognese.

  8. 8

    Add the cooked pasta to the sauce.

  9. 9

    Serve with more parmesan, if desired.
