Place over heat source to simmer for a couple hours. I did toss in a handful of Applewood pellets to get just a hint of smoke flavor. Once I am satisfied with the smoke level I'll cover the Dutch oven and let it simmer sirring occasionally.

Will be served with al dente rigatoni topped with fresh grated parmesan chees and some mozzarella garlic beard

looks tasty!!! is it spicy italian sausage? i usually boil the hot italian sausage before grilling but i never used beer, i will have to try that next time.  :cheers:
 
Very nice, wish I was there to share.


Any particular reason for using whole canned tomatoes vs crushed canned tomatoes of the same brand?
 
I've been on a San Marzano kick lately and have only ever found them whole peeled. I've even been using them for pizza sauce using the imersion blender to break them down
