Steps:
- Make the sauce: in a heavy saucepan cook the onion and the garlic in the oil over low heat, stirring, for 2 minutes; add parsley, basil, tomatoes, tomato paste, stock, wine, sugar, romano, salt, and oregano, and simmer the sauce, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
- While sauce is cooking, prepare the meatballs: in a large bowl combine bread (with liquid squeezed from it), chuck (it's really good if you grind your own!), eggs, romano, parsley, garlic, the oregano, salt, and pepper; mix well and form into 8 meatballs.
- In a large skillet brown the meatballs in the oil over high heat, turning them often; make sure to not crowd them in the pan, otherwise they won't brown properly.
- Transfer the browned meatballs to the sauce with a slotted spoon and simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
- You can serve them with your favorite pasta right away, but these improve in flavor if they're cooled and chilled, covered, and refrigerated overnight or up to 2 days before serving.

OLD WORLD MEATBALLS IN TOMATO SAUCE
My husband calls this "meatballs and gravy," even though it's a tomato sauce. I got this from my husband's aunt, who is from Italy. I make this all the time, and it's a big hit. Cooking the meatballs for the 2 1/2 hours in the sauce results in a very tender meatball. As is typical of most old world recipes, all spices are "to taste." With 3 pounds of ground meat, I usually end up with 35-38 meatballs. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Make meatballs first.
- Combine all meatball ingredients, adding enough Italian bread crumbs to allow the ground meat to stick together when formed into a ball.
- Form meatballs into size slightly smaller than Dunkin Donuts munchkins, or a little smaller than a golf ball.
- Set aside meatballs.
- Cover bottom of a large pot with a light coating of olive oil.
- Dice fresh garlic and add to pot, frying until golden (about 30 seconds), but do not burn.
- Add paste, puree, crushed tomatoes and water.
- Add spices to taste. Go easy on the red pepper flakes, as you can always add more later.
- Stir. Note: tomato sauce splatters if left unattended on the stove.
- When sauce begins to boil, lower the heat and place meatballs in one by one.
- Let cook for 15 minutes and then stir, being careful not to break apart meatballs. Thereafter, stir occasionally to prevent meatballs from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Cook over low heat for 2 1/2 hours.
- If sauce is too thick, add more water.
- If sauce is too spicy, add some sugar to balance out the spice.

OLD SCHOOL TOMATO SAUCE WITH MEATBALLS
I grew up on this recipe and always, always ,always have several jars, one in the fridge and the more in the freezer. There is no excuse for running out. My Grandma has been gone for many years now, but this is her recipe straight from the old country. I have made a couple of adjustments in the last few years to the ingredients in the meatballs. Made it a bit healthier. I hope it makes your family as happy as it makes mine!

Steps:
- Start the sauce:.
- Put oil in bottom of pre-heated sauce pot and let it heat up over medium heat. A nice heavy pot is best.
- Add the onion, green pepper, bay leaves,parsley and red pepper flakes and saute for for about 5 minutes or until the
- onion is translucent.
- Add the garlic and saute another minute or two, don't let the garlic brown.
- Add the first can of tomato sauce.
- Place the 2 cans of stewed tomatoes in a food processor and blend till finely pureed, add them to the pot.
- Add the other three cans of sauce. I go slowly so that the sauce can slowly come to temperature without having to have the heat too high and risk burning it.
- Add the can of diced tomatoes at the end.
- Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper.
- Turn heat to low and keep your eye on the pot while you prepare the meatballs. Stir occassionally. Don't let it burn.
- For the Meatballs:.
- Mix all the meatball ingredients together.
- I usually let the milk sit on the breadcrumbs for a few minutes to moisten them before I start combining the mixture together.
- They should be wet, don't panic, I let the mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes before I start forming the meatballs and it firms up a bit.
- Form them into balls and place as many as you can into a glass pie plate without touching. I have two pie plates going.
- Place the plate into your microwave, yes the microwave, and cook on high for 4 minutes. Grandma didn't do them this way, but they turn out great and it saves a ton of time and it's a whole lot less mess.
- Very carefully remove the pie plate from the oven and slide the contents into your simmering pot of sauce. No, I do not drain any of the fat. Darn stuff tastes great!
- Turn the heat up to about medium while you are adding the meatballs.
- Have your next pie plate of meatballs ready to go into the microwave and repeat process until you are out of meat. I usually get 3-4 plates, depends on how big you like your meatballs.
- Once everything is in the pot and is bubbling turn the heat back down to low and.
- Continue to very gently stir your pot of sauce with meatballs every now and then, you don't want to burn your sauce but you don't want to break up the meatballs either.
- Let simmer together for at least one hour. Longer won't hurt. Your entire neighborhood will smell amazing.
- Serve over your favorite pasta, or in your favorite recipe.
- I store them seperately, keep some in the fridge for another day and put the rest of the sauce in jars in the freezer. I freeze the meatballs individually and then store in bags. If you want to make more meatballs and freeze them before cooking, you can. Just place on a cookie sheet and freeze, then place in gallon size freezer bags. That way the next time you make the sauce it can be done and ready to eat in no time.

GRANDMA'S OLD ITALIAN SPAGHETTI SAUCE WITH MEATBALLS
Grandma's sauce is an old recipe that she brought over from Italy. It is a long process with strange ingredients, but they all come together to make the best sauce I have ever had. The long process is worth your trouble the minute you take your first bite.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in the bottom of a large saucepan, and fry the garlic cloves 5 to 8 minutes, until brown and fragrant. Remove the garlic cloves and set aside. Place the pig's feet and pork neck bones in the saucepan and fry, turning occasionally, until the meat and bones have browned, about 15 minutes.
- Return the garlic cloves to the saucepan, and stir in the tomato paste and 1 1/2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, and pour in the tomato puree. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 3 hours, stirring from the bottom often to prevent burning, until the pig's feet are tender and the mixture begins to thicken. Stir in the sugar, pepper, and baking soda. Continue to simmer while you prepare the meatballs.
- Soak the torn bread with 1 cup of water in a bowl. Squeeze excess water out of the bread, and place the bread in a large bowl with the 6 beaten eggs, ground pork, ground veal, and ground beef. Mix thoroughly and form into 24 meatballs about 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, stir in the minced garlic and chopped fresh basil, let them cook for about 1 minute, and then add the meatballs. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and fry them on all sides until brown, about 15 minutes, working in batches, if necessary.
- Place the browned meatballs, along with the oil, garlic, and basil from the skillet into the sauce, stirring lightly to avoid breaking them. Add the whole hard-boiled eggs, and simmer for about 1 1/2 more hours, until the meatballs are cooked, the sauce is thick, and all the flavors have blended.

ITALIAN TOMATO SAUCE WITH MEATBALLS AND SAUSAGE
My best Italian Sauce. I make big batches and freeze it in containers for those nights we want a quick meal. My son says there is no better smell then the smell of my sauce simmering on the stove. I allow them a quick taste by dipping with a slice of Italian Bread.
