Brett & Bart's favorite spaghetti by jeanne templeman

This is an old Italian recipe that I've been cooking for 30 years, and my boys and husband all love it. I got this from my good friend and extraordinary cook Jeannie Puente. The trick for the old Italian flavor is that you cook it for 2 days in a crockpot. I don't leave it on at night for safety. Delicious!

Barciole. Italian for "good freaking food" by Michael Swiney

However you want to pronounce it, and I have heard several ways...Bar'cola...Bar'cio...Bar-joel....what ever, it is a good and easy recipe that most make with Flank Steak.
