Italian American immigrants when they came over here in the 1890's thru 1930's, they had to create their own recipes, because they couldn't find the supplies they could in the old country! They were astonished with the amount of meat there was, and learned to braise all different cuts to feed their families! I honor those immigrants, their courage and sacrifice, their hard work and most importantly their love, which is eternal!
My wife and I prepared and cooked all of the meat and onions last night. This morning, we started cooking the sauce and then put in all the meat. She kept telling me, "You're killing me" because of all the wonderful aromas. We just added some mushrooms because we love mushrooms. We've been tasting it all day (for salt content 😊). It is the best sauce we've ever tasted. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing this! My maternal great grandparents were from Sicily➡️ NOLA. We ate Sunday gravy and meatballs EVERY Sunday as a kid, growing up in Baton Rouge. I’ve missed this ever since my great grandma and grandma died. Because of your video, it’s my turn to start the tradition for my little girls. 🇮🇹 🇺🇸
My nonna (from Palermo) always used fennel seed in her sauce. I love it so I do it too. Every family has their way & their traditions. It's all good. 🍝
All I can say is O...M...G!!!!!! I followed this recipe and I feel like a chef. This was so good, totally unbelievable! I made the meatballs also. I didn't have breadcrumbs so I whizzed a box of Aldi stuffing mix and used some of that. Deep flipping licious! So tender just like you said. Other than the stuffing mix I followed to the letter. OMG people you can be a chef too! The whole house smelled so good I called the neighbors over just to smell. Nicole, you are the best cook, chef 👩🍳 EVER!!!!!!❤❤
i am 83 so have been making sauce for many years but every now and than i like to try others recipes i am making yours as we speak. i forgot to add salt and pepper to the meatballs something i have never forgotten they are still good . the sauce has been coking 1 1/2 hour so far .i only added 5 cups of water so far but tastes good. the only different thing i did was when i fried the meatballs i rolled them in flour like lida does that italian cook who has a tv show since she did it that way
When your book deal comes through, please make sure you include your stories. I will buy copies of recipes for all my friends. You are soooooooooooo good at what you do.
Also known as Neapolitan Ragu. It was brought to the U.S. by the millions of southern Italian immigrants. However in Italy, we never serve the meat over the pasta. The meat flavors the sauce, and only the sauce and pasta are served together. The meat is served as a separate course with vegetables after the pasta.
My wife and I live in Medellin, Colombia. (Originally from Houston, Texas.) This morning, I went to our big local market and found one of the pork sellers. They weren't hard to find because they were carving up an entire pig on the side table. I ordered 2 kg of "huesos de cuello de cerdo" (bones of the neck of the pig). They were happy to oblige. The total cost was 45,000 COP (about $10 US.) Thank you for sharing this wonderful secret family recipe.
You are one of but a few culinary artist that as soon as I pull up your video I hit the thumbs up because I know it will be GREAT!!! Thank You for doing what You do so Well!
Love the Content and Technique Princess. This coming from a 100% Italian Family born and rasied in Brooklyn NYC. 8 hour "Sawce" ebetuung Pork, Veal, Bracciole right in that Sauce for about 8 hours. Used to get the wooden spoon from my Nonna because we would sneak and dip the best Italian bread that only NYC makes in the Sauce. Lol. Yes it's true it's all about the NYC Water besides knowing how to perfect this 8 hour 💎
Thank you Nicole. I love your Sunday sauce. I used your recipe as a base. I use pork chops along with the pork chop bones...italian sausage, and italian meatballs. So good! My older son who normally does not like spaghetti tried this and fall in love with spaghetti. this is a game changee for my family when everybody actually loves spaghetti and you can just cook one thing instead of 4 things bc someone doesn't like the main recipe. But now, everybody loves the main recipe. LOVE LOVE LOVE this.
Great video! Took me back to my childhood. My mother made sauce every Sunday morning without fail! Always had my bread and sauce snack! My Dad would have his second portion of spaghetti during the week. He’d broil it til toasty on the top. Delicious! I knew you were Italian, by the way you cook. Keep ‘‘em coming.
Your recipe is much the same as mine. Been making it for over 40 years. I use some celery diced up fine as well. Along with some crushed red pepper flakes & a good handful of Romano. My great Uncle gave me this recipe a long time ago. I make this for at least 10 or more.
I use to make homemade sauce you got me in the mood to make it again. I get alot of inspiration from your recipes I cook from scratch for my family we are in to the clean eating as well. I just love you chanel
Fabulous, Nicole, the last piece of the puzzle! We will have had enough turkey by tomorrow, so this will be our Sunday Sauce starting right then! I can get busy on the meatballs and if I get on the road soon, I can get to Birmingham for the sausage and be back in no time! Thanks so much for this recipe I will treasure! 😘
I am so excited for this recipe! That sauce looks too DEEE-LICIOUS!! Homemade, cook all day sauce is a recipe I've always wanted. I absolutely will be trying to make it and pray is comes out remotely close to yours. Since I found your channel, I have been watching your vids back to back and appreciating and enjoying every single one. Thank you loads for sharing with us. Arlene
My Aunt Annie made the best sauce. I have been trying to make it for years. Your recipe is the closest I've come to getting it right. Thank you. Love the meatballs too.
Making Sunday sauce now. Could not afford the pork so I cut up the sausages so they bleed into the sauce. Smells amazing right now. Neighbors are drooling.
Hahahahahaha I just watched a video you did in 2018 .... you looked as if you were frightened to death that you might slip one out !!!! Hahahahahaha and now you have the courage and chutzpah to do it and laugh about it !!!!!! Hahahahahaha. I love watching your videos and I love your personality! Keep it up ,you're great ! Thanks
My neighbor growing up, wouldn’t give me her recipe. She received this recipe from her mother in law. (She was Lebanese, hubby was Italian). The only thing she would say, she started with a chuck roast. She wouldn’t tell me anything else! Lol Your recipe might be similar to her sauce. Oh my gosh, it was so good.
This has been a great resource for me in starting my own Sunday sauce! I add some chopped jalapeños (guts, seeds, and all) to the onion and garlic and deglaze that with some red wine though.
I learned this recipe from my Italian mother-in-law. The only thing different is she didn’t add the onion. I don’t know why. Maybe she didn’t like onion, but everything else is the same. She was a first born Italian born in America. I’ve made this recipe ever since she taught me when I was 20 years old. I’m 80 now. Wow!
Great job, that’s the Italian way. (I use the Cento Italian peeled tomatoes, paste, and water, because it reduces during cooking) but I use the same meat (typically will use pork for the meatballs plus the neck bones and sausages) now I’m hungry!
Pretty sure I don't have a drop of Italian blood in my system. My ancestors were Romanian, German and a pinch of English. However, I absolutely love all those Italian flavors. That said, I see a new Sunday tradition in my life. Thanks so much Nicole for sharing your family's recipe and making Sunday sauce less intimidating. I'm definitely trying this. Much love to you & yours and a very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year. 🎄😋
Sunday you were going to be at that table I live in that ERA Still no technology what so ever. After the Card Games and Espresso and Sambuca came out I still try and continue the tradition.
Ahhhhh....lightbulb goes on! I didn't know about Nicole's Italian heritage, but that explains her inability to speak without the hand gestures. LOL! I'm cooking this recipe right now, btw. :)
This is amazing and ive been doing it this way for years. Great job, once again girl. You rock. Thank you for sharing!!!! Love them pork neck bones too. 8 hrs minimum. Low & slow.
I got the stuff to make Sunday Sauce but the neck bones are beef. Hope it works. Thanks Nicole! You are a rock star! Get that book going! Talk to Miss Brenda Gantt. Her third is coming out soon. You can do this! Big hug!
New sub here, and thank you for the recipe....looks absolutely delish!! 😋Couple of questions! Are your meatballs fully cooked when you add them, or just partially? Second question; do you ever add braciole to your sauce? Thanks again!!
I'm sitting here watching this video as I'm watching The Godfather, and it's the scene when Clamenza is making sauce. You dumped your meat at the same time he dumped his. 😄

This has to be the best sauce recipe I have watched, simple and straight to the point. I like to cook mine for 2 days to absorb all the flavors.

I love All Recipes. They are usually very simple and not too many ingredients.
My mom always put short ribs in her sauce, it was awesome.
My mom too 0:32 ❤
Same here. Short ribs.
This seems like A GREAT Recipe for Football season!!! Especially if your team plays later in the Day
It's fun to see how people put together their sugo. We all do it a little differently. That's the fun of it. Your sauce looked delicious.
Damn, I’m drinking coffee right now but I could put it down and stuff my face with Sunday Sauce!!

I froze 20 lbs of tomatoes today.
20 lbs last week.
Lots of sauce this winter!
I just smelled your sauce. Superb! I'm making it tomorrow, my husband will be so happy. Thank you for your "secret" Sunday sauce!
Everything is in the sauce. Now I just have to wait 4-6 hours. I'm sure it will be worth it!
Made this today. Talk about YUMMO. Three extra containers in the freezer for another day. Absolutely delicious.
I made this today and my family loved it! Thank you so much for sharing your recipe 🙏🏼

OMG, That looks like Heaven 😋😋😋😋
I made your sauce one Sunday morning and enjoyed the tasting process all day and the meatballs, sausages and neck bones were a hit as well.
I just want to say how much I love your channel and your recipes 😊
My neighbor growing up, wouldn’t give me her recipe. She received this recipe from her mother in law. (She was Lebanese, hubby was Italian). The only thing she would say, she started with a chuck roast. She wouldn’t tell me anything else! Lol Your recipe might be similar to her sauce. Oh my gosh, it was so good.
I love this !I thought I was the only one that put pork in mine and the Italian sausage but I use ground sausage so I’ll have to try the likes
My mom made this sauce using beef bones and cooked it for "2" two days, yummy.
This has been a great resource for me in starting my own Sunday sauce! I add some chopped jalapeños (guts, seeds, and all) to the onion and garlic and deglaze that with some red wine though.
This is our Sunday gravy and it starts with a ricola for my throat.
I learned this recipe from my Italian mother-in-law. The only thing different is she didn’t add the onion. I don’t know why. Maybe she didn’t like onion, but everything else is the same.

My mouth is so watering......!!!
Absolutely delicious....ate every drop of this!
Exactly how my mother used to serve pasta. Light sauce first. Good job Nicole

I do it just like you, except instead of water, I use beef broth, and I make it the day before, works great, I just reheat and eat.
