Sgetti-n-Meatballs...
 

There is still half a day left to whip up and entry for the Sauce is Boss Throwdown. There are only three entries, so far. :shock:

I decided to look back upon my roots for my boss sauce.

Friday, I prepared my mise en place of San Marzano tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, garlic, mushrooms and some basil and oregano fresh from the still growing garden.

I sautéed the onions peppers and garlic in olive oil. I tossed the shrooms and herbs in with them briefly, then added the tomatoes, mashed up with a whisk. I added a little k-salt and fresh ground black pepper, and let it simmer for about four hours. Then I cooled it and put it in the fridge overnight to really merge the flavors.

Saturday, I ground up some chuck and pork loin with the Kitchenaid, then mixed up some meatballs with the meat, two eggs, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, and diced onion.

On to the 18.5 OTG, set up indirect with Kingsford Blue and a couple oak chunks, also from my backyard (some of last spring's pruning).

I made some pasta, mixed it up in my saucier of simmering sauce (the right way to sauce), and plated my meal.

CD - forget the pasta. Those meatballs and sauce would taste good on a a tree branch. Yummy.

Very nice CD... Just had something similar tonight but yours look much better! :mrgreen:

Those meatballs make me hungry!

Looks fantastic! San Marzano are the only way i roll for canned tomatoes. Only thing you are missing is some freshly grated parm :thumb:

Fark, and I'm out of town. Sorry CD, I had a few good ideas for that TD too, but can't seem to recall what they were. Anyway, those meatballs look great. I love meatballs.

That's some great lookin' CDogfood!
