Directions

Chop onion, garlic, celery, and carrots in a chopper.

Put skillet on medium-high heat and add olive oil and chopped vegetables. Sauté for a couple of minutes or until caramelized.

Add ground beef and mix well.

Season with salt and pepper and continue to caramelize for about 10 minutes until well caramelized.

Add wine and deglaze the pan until all the wine evaporates.

Add crushed tomatoes, Italian seasoning, barbecue sauce, and maple syrup. Mix well. Lower the heat and let simmer for another 15-20 minutes.

Cook pasta as mentioned on the package. When pasta is cooked, take 1/2 cup of liquids and set aside.

Drain pasta and place in a large bowl.

Add content of the skillet to the pasta and mix. Add up to 1/2 cup of pasta liquids to the sauce and mix well. (It will prevent dryness of the dish.)

Serve and enjoy!

Editors Review

Oh! This a glorious dish. Pasta Bolognese is relatively simple to make. Pasta along with beef, maple syrup, red wine, and barbecue sauce make this an excellent dish. I think that this is one of the less often tried Italian recipes. So savory, so yummy! You got to taste to experience it.
