OMG

When I went about making Cowboy Pasta last night, I had no idea what I'd be proving.  My easiest sauce ever plan fell flat on its back, actually ran out of Giada's sauce, I know, can you imagine? So plan b held three pounds worth of ground beef and ground pork, literally a half and half mixture. And a hunt, of a lasagna? Another beef/pork complimented pasta?  As soon as I centered on Mel's Cowboy Spaghetti, I just knew, we could adapt it.

Tripled the meat in the end, sacrificed the bacon, doubled the sauce, and you know what's so interesting about adding 1/2 cup of barbecue sauce?  The four tablespoons of Worcestershire that somehow sweetens everything up.  I mean with a teaspoon only of oregano and four cloves of garlic minced, serving my version of Cowboy Pasta Sauce over a pound of rotelle.  Could freeze an entire half of the recipe for another fallish-night feeling, and have enough to feed a family of eight, with leftovers!  Not even kidding.
