Great basic recipe. Helpful changes: (1) 1/2 lb of sausage and 1/2 lb ground chuck instead of 1lb sausage; (2) 1 Tbsp flour added to meat after it is drained to thicken sauce; (3) 1/2 c of beef broth rather than 1 c plus 1/2 tsp of beef boullion to increase flavor without making it so watery; (4) sauteed onions added (to taste preference). Result: more balanced flavor, thicker sauce. Will definitely make again.
