Ingredients

8 slices bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces

1 large onion, chopped

2 28 ounce cans diced tomatoes

1 14 ounce can tomato sauce

1 teaspoon white sugar, or more to taste

0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste

1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

Step 1
Cook bacon in a Dutch oven over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until fat starts to render, about 2 minutes. Add onion; cook and stir until onion softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in diced tomatoes and tomato sauce; season with sugar and black pepper. Simmer until sauce is reduced by at least one-fourth and up to one-third, 30 to 45 minutes. Stir in butter just before serving.
