This is the recipe my Italian Grandmother made, and still makes for us every Christmas.

My whole family including myself absolutely loves it. The meat will just fall apart on the plate and combined with my Italian Grandmother's spaghetti sauce it is a sure fire hit for any occasion.

What you will need

2 lb round boneless round steak 1/4 inch thick

1 large can crushed tomato

1 large can of tomato puree

Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder,, Italian Seasoning, Grated Parmesan, Olive Oil

Wipe steak down or wash "preferably with water I hope" and pat dry with a paper towel

Season meat to your liking with:salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, italian seasoning, grated parmesan, tablespoon of olive oil

Roll the steak up and hold with tooth picks(this is to hold all those good spices in the center).

Place a little olive oil in the bottom of a 3 quart sauce pan sprinkle garlic in the olive oil until the garlic browns slightly.

Then place your meat in the pan

Simmer meat until browned

Add one large can crushed tomato and let simmer without cover for thicken

Apply all seasonings for a second time(This is important because you have just burned some seasoning off).

Add one large can of tomato puree

Now sprinkle parmesan cheese on top for a second time and mix

Add a tip of a teaspoon of baking soda to sauce and stir.

Cover and simmer on medium heat stirring occasionally until oil rises to the top of the sauce and that is an indication that it is ready.

note if you are preparing meatballs always add them to your sauce at least 15 minutes after your baking soda or they will become bitter.

This recipe is the exact same for pork of beef spare ribs This will also make you sauca amazing bone or country style will be fine.(Recipe by Grandmas Kitchen.) Read below for more information about Grandma's Kitchen.
