Method
Directions
Add Garlic
Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Brown the Sausage
Add the house-made sausage to the pot and cook until browned. Break it apart with a spoon as it cooks.
Brown the Beef
Add the Painted Hills beef to the pot, browning on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef and set aside.
Add Tomatoes and Simmer
Pour in the diced Roma tomatoes, along with their juices. Stir in oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
Return the Beef to the Pot
Add the browned beef back to the pot, cover, and let simmer on low heat for 2-3 hours. Stir occasionally.
Cook the Penne Pasta
About 15 minutes before serving, cook the penne pasta according to package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water.
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Once the pasta is cooked and drained, add it to the sauce. Toss well to coat the pasta in the sauce.
Serve
Serve the pasta hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
