1 pound ground meat (I used a pork/beef/veal combo)
Salt and pepper to taste
½ cup red wine
Pinch of sugar
1 (28 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes
1 medium onion, peeled and sliced in half
To serve:
1 pound pasta, cooked
Freshly grated Parmesan
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the beef bones on a rimmed baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes.
While the bones roast, heat the olive oil in a large stockpot over medium heat. Add the ground meat and season with salt and pepper. Cook the meat until browned, stirring occasionally, about 5 to 8 minutes.
Add the red wine and sugar and cook until wine has evaporated, about another 5 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, onion, and roasted beef bones (along with any rendered fat) to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer gently for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally and crushing the tomatoes against the side of the pot with a wooden spoon.
Remove the bones and onion. Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce and garnish with some grated Parmesan cheese.
