Delicious!

I have made this recipe a few times for guests and I never have leftovers. It is a great, simple recipe. Like another reviewer mentioned, I also cut back on the amount of oil and use 3 - 4 Tbl instead of the 6 called for in the recipe.
Pros: Will Make Again

Simple but seems like more...
December 15, 2012
I have made this a few times, most recently with pork in place of the beef. Other than a couple of extra cloves of garlic made as directed. It is so good and even though there is a long simmer time the prep work is pretty quick. Would serve to guests.
Pros: Yield, Quick, Easy, Kid-Friendly, Appearance, Will Make Again

Simple & practical
April 10, 2012
I really like this recipe due to its simplricity. I also agree with the previous reviewers about mixing beef with pork, etc., as this makes it more delicious. However, 6 Tablespoons of oil is very excessive. The meat (even if you use sirloin, which I did) also renders fat, so you end up with a significant amount. I would cut down the saute oil by half to 3 Tablespoons. This is a fantastic dish, and keeping it healthy is the way to go!!
Pros: Quick, Good Value
Cons: Unhealthy

Simple Cooking, Flexible Recipe
January 4, 2012
We make this about once a week. Family and friends love it and it makes great leftovers for lunch (I eat it on toast rather than use pre-cooked noodles).
We replace rosemary with 3 bay leaves (and add before wine), which is called for in the Ragu from the WS "Sauces" cookbook.
We also use any combination of pork, beef, veal, and lamb that is available.
The more wine the better (but also the longer it takes to cook). This recipe can be doubled (trippled etc) well.
Long and short: this is simple cooking for delicious comfort food.
Pros: Quick, Easy, Adaptable, Impressive, Will Make Again
