Saute onion and garlic in hot oil in a large pot over low heat for 5 minutes.

  • 1.75 to 2 lbs (794 to 907 g) ground beef

Add beef; brown over medium heat, breaking up meat with a fork as it cooks.

  • 2 28 fl oz (796 mL) cans whole tomatoes
  • 1 156mL can tomato paste
  • 12 cup (120 g) water
  • 12 cup celery, chopped and loosely packed

Stir in the remaining ingredients.

Bring mixture to boiling; reduce heat; simmer, stirring occasionally 3 hours, or until sauce is thick.

Remove bay leaves; skim; or chill, then skim off hardened fat.
