SUNDAY GRAVY AND MACARONI (SPAGHETTI, REALLY)

On Sundays my grandpa Emmanuel would take the kitchen table out on the lawn and turn it into a buffet table for his 10 children and the whole neighborhood. He would make Sunday gravy (marinara sauce) filled with slow-cooked meats that flavored the sauce: braciole, pork chops, chicken thighs, rabbit, sausages and meatballs. He would simmer the meats for hours, then pull them from the sauce pot and separate them into stacks on a large platter. He would toss spaghetti, which he referred to as macaroni in English, with half of the remaining sauce and add lots of cheese to it. The extra sauce would be ladled on top of dinner plates of meat and macaroni. This recipe is all I can do to imitate Sundays with Emmanuel in 30 minutes.
