"I did that sucky noodle thing and it shot right in my eye." That BLOWs. Hazards of the JOB, my friend.

As an Italian who does not eat wheat anymore (yes, I know!) I have found that using some ricotta in place of the bread / breadcrumbs works phenomenally well.

Spaghetti and Meatballs is my family's favorite Sunday dinner. I've been making more or less the same recipe for almost 10 years. Yesterday I followed your instructions and oh brother was it worth it. The meatballs were a lot more dynamic and I would usually add ricotta but I think the combo of the fresh bread w/ milk and the mirepoix made them more moist and less dense. The sauce technique also helped level me up a bit. Thanks so much for making your videos.

When Chef John does that tomato crushing stage, he says in no uncertain terms that you should do it with you hands, then says something like "sure you could do it another way, but then you wouldn't feel what I'm feeling, and I want you to feel what I'm feeling!". So great, and a testament to Sonny that he hits the same mark! Great video, I'll try the recipe sometime soon :)

11:53 we have no other choice, I live in a house with my mom and 3 siblings. When my mom cooks spaghetti she doesn’t cook like 1 or 2 portions per person, she cooks enough spaghetti that we can eat as much as we want and even more for 2-3 days, that doesn’t fit in a pan to cook the spaghetti and sauce, she has a pot of spaghetti and then a HUGE pot of sauce And it’s the best spaghetti I’ve ever eaten (and I’ve eaten A LOT of spaghetti)

A small list of simple, high quality ingredients is what make the dish so good

Hand crushing tomatoes is on par with popping all the bubbles in a roll of bubble wrap!

9:41 when people call for "bars" in their kitchens, they usually mean a place to dispense drinks. Sonny up here dispensing LYRICS!! Nicely done!

Just tossed my meatballs in the oven for a nice Sunday family dinner. Thank you for this! Such a nice recipe. The smells filling the house... This is what I want my family to remember when they're grown up. Recommend when you taste test, throw just a little bit of your sauce in there with it - not on it, just on the side. Give yourself a preview. Soo good.

OMG Sonny.... I've been in therapy for 8+ years straight (blame my mom, don't most of us?), anyway, one of her most remembered reminders is: "You are in the ocean, you are being tossed by the waves, you have to learn to surf the waves around you, best you can, to keep that head above water." It's the same no matter what you are doing, you gotta bob, and dip with the waves, as they travel up and down, that's LIFE, man. It's been one of the most helpful things my therapist ever told me and you are straight up equating it to cooking and I LOVE that. It's so true. You just gotta bob with the waves, dude.

Love your channel & can’t wait to make this!

Yet another fantastic video! I like how you give folks options in the event they don't have skills or the best ingredients. You just want folks to cook and I love that!

Great work as always, brother! Keep up the epic recipes.

Great sauce recipe! Keep on cooking!!

Thanks again for the amazing recipe! I made this for my family tonight alongside some homemade pasta, it was delicious!

Just finished cooking this. Can’t wait to dig in

Oh that looks so good!
