Ragù of Beef, Pork Sparerib, and Sausage (w/ Pics - in progress)

In the mood for pasta today and I have nothing going on, so decided to do a ragù. This is loosely based off of a Serious Eats recipe, but I added several ingredients.

First we brown all the meats. Cut your pork spare ribs into parts.
My birthday was last week and an out of town friend mailed me this gift - game changer for me. I had a Global and a Victorinox but it’s nothing compared to this bad boy.



Season and brown





Next we do our chuck beef









Finally, our mild italian sausage removed from its casing





Watch for scavengers.



All the meats. Sorry, I use paper plates for ingredient prep. Don’t tell California.



Onions



Garlic, I microplaned



Red pepper flakes and oregano. Loving these flakes. Hit up RSS if you’ve never been.

Also anchovies because I love them in these types of sauces.







Red wine



Reduce until almost all gone



Tomato time



Crush in a big bowl or pot by hand



Add to pot with a Parmesan rind if you save those.



Somehow force all of the meat back into the pot. Pop into 300 degree oven with lid slightly ajar.



Wait 3.5 hours. Stay tuned for the rest.
