Cowboy Pork Spaghetti

Ingredients

  • 12 oz spaghetti pasta
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 diced yellow onion
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 15 oz can of tomato sauce
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese divided
  • 1/4 cup diced bacon for garnish
  • 4 diced green onions for garnish

Instructions

  • Add 1 tbs olive oil to a skillet and heat to medium.
  • Add onions and saute until almost translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Then add additional olive oil if needed and the garlic and salt and pepper.
  • Stir continually so the garlic does not burn.
  • While the onions cook, add the ground pork to a deep skillet over medium heat.
  • Crumble and cook until no longer pink, then drain.
  • Add the onion mixture to the cooked pork, then add tomato sauce.
  • Turn heat to low and add Worcestershire, hot sauce, and additional salt and pepper then let simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil then add pasta and cook according to package, about 11 minutes. Then drain and add to the tomato sauce mixture.
  • Mix in 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese to the sauce and it's ready to serve!
  • Top off each spaghetti serving with a sprinkle of bacon, cheese, and green onions.

Notes

Rachael Ray's version adds 1/2 cup beer to the sauce.

Cook the onions until they are translucent, add garlic, and season with salt and pepper. 

Don’t add the garlic too early. Let the onions caramelize and cook down, then add the garlic. If you add it too early it will burn and stick to the bottom of the pan.

 
 
We use ground pork for this recipe and it’s our favorite! But you can use any ground meat for this spaghetti including sausage, beef, turkey, or even venison or buffalo!
 Let the sauce simmer and build the flavors!
Finally, mix in the hot pasta and it’s ready to serve!
The toppings! Shredded cheddar, crispy bacon, and chopped green onions.

Sprinkle with toppings and serve hot.

Time for dinner!
