Being mostly Italian it is gravy, here in the states is sauce.What most don't know is Italians prefer good olive oil and garlic with their pasta.I cant lie even though I cook mostly  from scratch I do have some canned/store purchased canned stewed tomatoes in the pantry.

I don't know about favorite jar sauces, but when I read electric meters on the west side of Buffalo, I was given some samples of homemade sauce made by the older generation at that time, and let me tell you, was that sauce good! 

They all seemed to have that down in the basement stove. Always something bubbling downstairs...damn good time....and sauce...with bread...

Coming from an Italian family there is no such thing as jar sauce. Unless it was created by one of the woman in the family!

Homemade sauce is 6 hrs and I have it once a month at parents. Use to be every Sunday from when I was a kid till about 5 years ago. Mom and Dad can’t do that every week anymore. Best jar sauce if I had a gun to my head and had to pick it would be chefs

It's all just noodles and red stuff and they trick you with different names for different shaped noodles . We still hold the title for the best wings anywhere.

You are among the few still canning tomatoes in the US.  You and any 120 year old Italian women.  But I am jealous.

We can at least  100 quarts a year.  I would do 200 but wife says no......

All homegrown too.  It’s not hard, takes a couple of afternoons.

We have some excellent italian restaurants, Santasieros is my favorite. But I agree that the pizza here is terrible

Who has time to make sauce ? Doesn't it take all day?

Doesn't anyone use a crock pot anymore. Takes less than 30min to prep everything that goes into your fav sauce and crock pot does the rest! Same process for homemade chili, .. almost.

I am only in Dutchess county and I have to drive 45 minutes for decent italian but believe it or not your not your not gonna get much better pizza than pizza posto in rhinebeck and I have been to them all.......   Bronx pizza slightly overrated....  

[rachunter]

Tried the Rao’s sauce it’s not bad. Micheal’s is a little thicker. Going to try Victoria’s when it goes on sale. Micheal’s is up to $9 if it’s not on sale. Thanks for the reply’s I might try to make my own someday.

[Hunter007]

italian pesto Made from scratch .

Can tomato sauce is all garbage but there is a secret to get it to taste ok add sugar it gets rid of that acidic flavor of the canned garbage from the store .

copolas.............   lmfao      You can not be serious about that.......   I guess I will try uncle sonnys but it was garbage when it was mannys..........  I drive by it every week to go to Lias in pine plains which is probably 10x better than copollas............

[helmut in the bush]

Has anyone heard of or tried adding Sweet Vermouth to the canned sauce? I saw it on a cooking show once and I don't think I've ever had sauce at home without it since.

I never heard of them Rob and I live here.  But I typically don't shop for jarred sauce either so who knows.  We do have LiDestri here which was originally Ragu (then cantesano) which was actually started from an Italian family out of their home in Rochester.  Has grown crazy and the original owner sold out.

Uh oh, he went there!

Last time I had jarred sauce, (not gravy), was about 6 years ago. It was Raos, and it was pretty decent.

In the end, sauce is a very personal thing.  Most like what Grandma made and only what grandma made - unless your last name is Sullivan!  Luckily my wife can do a very good impersonation of Grandma when it comes to sauce!
