Sunday Gravy

Rich and delicious Sunday Gravy has always been a traditional favorite in my family and many Italian families for generations. The benefits of cooking the gravy for hours and braising a variety of cuts of meat in tomato sauce creates a flavor that surpasses any type of tomato based sauce you can prepare. This is the type of gravy that adheres to your ribs and satisfies your taste buds.

There is nothing I would rather cook than Sunday gravy. The aroma puts a smile on every ones face. It brings families and friends together in celebration and creates wonderful memories. Any occasion or holiday would not be the same if this red gravy didn't exist.

So I hope you enjoy my traditional Sunday Gravy recipe. Use it to create your own memories that your family will remember for the rest of there lives. Read More
