The options in the tomato area of the store are overwhelming. I never know which to use unless a recipe states it specifically. I did not grow up using anything other than tomato sauce and paste.

I am an absolute novice when it comes to Italian cooking but look for "San Marzano" if you want to make a tomato sauce from scratch on the weekend. They cost more and the label will have "San Marzano" prominently displayed.

I use fresh tomatoes whenever possible but San Marzano tomatoes most definitely work very well.

If you have a Costco membership they usually have a good deal on San Marzano tomatoes. I think they come in packs of 4 28 oz cans

Would ox tails be good for this? Bought some on a whim at Sam's. Never cooked before.

They also carry Cento San Marzanos in a three pack, at least they do here in South Carolina.

Any type of meat you would normally need to cook low and slow would work. Pork shoulder, ribs, brisket, ox tails, you name it.

Just don't do what I saw one guy do on youtube. He plopped a pork loin in the gravy and cooked it six hours. I've seen chalk with more moisture than that loin when it came out.

I actually avoid all the dryer pork cuts. If it ain't off the shoulder or belly, I really don't want it, but is often forced upon me by the SO.

For me, it's not about how the ribs taste in the sauce, but the flavor the pork ribs impart into the sauce. Raises the flavor bar.

This didn't work well. Thankfully, I did meatballs too, which were fantastic. The oxtails we're just too much bone, fat and connective. Probably last time I do those. Spare ribs next time.
