Pepe Vandel's Spaghetti Sauce

SUBMITTED BY: TASHAMARIE

"This recipe was brought back from Italy by my husband's grandfather. It is a family favorite! For sauce with meatballs, shape 6 pounds ground beef into balls. After sauce has simmered, place meatballs in sauce and simmer for additional 4 to 5 hours. Stir occasionally."
