Music: "Cream on Chrome" by Ratatat
RECIPE
---
Ingredients
-3 cloves garlic, cut paper-thin
-3 small onions (keyword: small) chopped
-1 lb each sweet and spicy italian sausage
-1 beef shank
-1lb veal neck bones w/ meat attached
-1 glug red wine
-3 cans DOP San Marzano tomatoes
-1 tbsp tomato paste
-2 large stems fresh basil
-1 large carrot, peeled and cut into big chunks
-1lb meatballs
-Olive oil or butter for finishing (optional)
-Parmesan cheese (not optional)
Method
In a large stock pot, brown the sausage, beef, and veal in batches until well browned and fond has formed on the bottom of the pot. Add onions, sauté until translucent, add tomato paste and garlic and sauté until fragrant. Deglaze with wine, scraping up all the good stuff on the bottom of the pot. Add tomatoes, crushing with a spoon (or processing with a food mill if desired), and return meats to the pot. Add basil and carrot, and bring to a bare simmer. Let sauce simmer for hours, stirring and scraping the bottom occasionally (don't let anything stick - it will scorch and ruin your sauce). Add meatballs during the final hour of cooking, and simmer until desired consistency is reached.
Remove carrots and beef/veal bones - add a spoonful of sauce to coat some freshly-cooked pasta (preferably something ridged so it holds onto lots of sauce), and serve with meat and extra gravy. Top with parmesan. Eat.

As far back as I can remember I always wanted to liquify the garlic in the pan with a little bit of oil
That's gangster
Look at my chef hat ma ain't it great?
My God, you look like a cook.
Samesies
Guess you're not a made man
I see what you did and I'm dead 😭
"So, to start this dish, we're going to commit a crime and go to prison."
“I’ve decided on breaking and entering as well as tax evasion, but you can choose your own for this part. After about a month or two of forming prison connections, it’s time to slice the garlic.”
I swear I spent like 5 minutes trying to make this a trilogy before realizing it was perfect as is
@@limejelo I always try to do that, but in my head I know I’m probably gonna ruin the joke.
Ideally it should be a year for contempt, but you can make do with 1 - 3 years for armed dobbery
r/cursedcomments: hello
That bit about the garlic liquifying is just part of the lore we tell kids about the magic that goes into the dish. Like I tell my son "The secret to good cooking is everyone else hearing you knock shit around in the kitchen."
Yes indeed
Amen to that
Well.... If you dice it fine enough it kinda does melt away in the pan.
Well said
of course they have red wine in prison
The garlic does dissolve in a little bit of oil, you need to be in prison for it to work.
@@hailervin he was making a movie reference
@@nczioox1116 Obviously... but sincerely I don't know any prison that even has garlic. Unless it came in pre-packaged in something of course as garlic powder.
@@hailervin The Goodfellas only got the garlic because they were wiseguys, they could sneak it in or get the guards to give em some.
@@ricksanchez3557 ah ok
@@hailervin dude go watch goodfellas lol
RIP Paul Sorvino and Ray Liotta. The two men whose acting brought this fine dish to life.
And Tony Sirico and James Caan (Yes, I know he did star in Goodfellas, but "look how they massacred my boy"....).
Oh yeah Robert de niro and joe pesci was useless in the film you're right. So forgettable wasn't they. It was all ray and Paul that saved the film
Amen
They're making this sauce in Heaven as we speak ✝️
And Charles Scorsese, Martin's father, who played "Three Onions" Vinnie in the scene as well.
There was nothing we could do. Babish was a made man and the garlic wasn’t.
It was among the Italians it was real grease ball shit.
This is the best comment in the world
we had to just sit down and take it
@Evan Glickman I want to go to prison just for the food
Here’s the comment I was looking for
Fun Fact: the food in this movie was made by the director's mother.
Another fun fact: she also made a cameo appearance as Joe Pesci's mother
And his father was the one putting the onions in prison
@@mohamedashian604 that was the director himself, I'm pretty sure his dad was one of the guys who whacks Tommy
Grey Matter no i checked it’s the one in prison
@@mohamedashian604 Ah yes you're right, my mistake friend
Honestly this idea for a cooking show is amazing and I hope you get your Netflix series you want. Very deserved!
Thanks so much!
yeah i love this guy,..and he has sexy arms,...so there's that
It's the only cooking show where I don't feel judged for breaking out the liquor.
yes

There was always a pasta course. End of narration.
Johnny Dio did the meat, we didn't have any pans so he did everything outside on the grill, it used to smell up the yard something awful and the mask police used to die, but he cooked a great steak.
Honestly that's how it feels, stuck in slighly more comfortable prison.

“Oh medium rare huh? An aristocrat”
"But he put in two tomata' cans! Two big cans!"
@@ireviewshtuff You don't need tree onions
@@ireviewshtuff I think he used too many onions, but it was still a very good sauce
"Vinny don't put too many onions in the sauce"
"Three small onions that's all I did"
*(BOOM)*
"Paulie why'd ya kill Vinny?"
"Eh, he put too many onions in the sauce."
I personally like to eat my aristocats medium rare...
This isn’t the sauce available to me in the witness protection program. One time I ordered spaghetti with marinara sauce and I was brought egg noodles with ketchup. I get to live out the rest of my like as a snook.

“Wooden Grandma spoon” that sir, is Nonna’s baton. Every Italian is scared of the spoon
Damn straight my grandmother broke 2 on my ass n I still loved her
More than once my mother busted that thing on me. My head, my ass, my father, my brother. She must’ve had stock in the company.
They never seemed to miss when firing at range either
So it’s the Italian version of the Chancla
Don't act up, don't get smacked up.
Love these, It feels a lot more natural and human than those stiff food network shows. Hope your channel gets more recognition, cause you sure as hell deserve it.
Thanks man that's really kind!
@@babishculinaryuniverse it's awesome to see his words coming true for you. You have a fantastic Channel that is delicious to watch. You're tempting me to start Really Cooking.
I made this recipe for Christmas dinner last year.
Can confirm, it entered the clean plate club. Unquestionably the best red sauce I've ever made.
We're doing it for Christmas this year! Did you use two cans of sauce or three? In the movie, he only uses two, but this recipe used three. Was curious
Karen, thats all the sauce we had left!
Underrated comment
Why did u do that! Why did u do that !
They were gonna find the garlic ! They were never gonna find it! Karen!!
You guys shouldda kept Gary Carter
“As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster”
ok
That’s a line from GoodFellas!!! 😃
William Yonts wow really
Be a chef instead.
My friend and I always talked about this scene in goodfellas and how amazing this looked!! Thank you so much for making this recipe available to us all :D
You're super welcome!
"single peeled carrot" puts in an absolute unit of a carrot worth atleast 3 normal carrots
Small carrots are perhaps what you want on a delicate little plate, but for cooking you want the ones that look like a horse's cock on Viagra. They have all the flavour. The carrots that is not the horse's cock.

Ratatouille. Every time my kids watch that movie it makes me hungry.
Black Mamba feast of fiction has a good ratatouille based on the movie 😊🐭
yessss!!!!!
chef steps also has an amazing ratatouille vid
Black Mamba Hell yeah
hehe... that movie has changed rat. for ever. Now it'll always look great, but it will never taste the same.😥
This inspired me to make something like this and I found out it's called a sunday sauce because you spend all day making it, and it's a tradition in Italy to make it on Sundays. I used beef short ribs, Italian sausage, and beef/pork meatballs.
Wow were making this today on a sunday what are the odds
hi
A year late, but it’s also a tradition in Italian-American areas. Youngstown, Chicago, NYC, all have a concept of sunday sauce
i hate your pfp
i used exactly the same meats you did, along with pork neck bones. literally the best pasta sauce i have ever made. even better than the authentic italian bolognese, which surprised me because i thought no sauce could ever top that
Don't forget the stir the sauce! Did you see that helicopter? It's been there all day!
I’m stirring it.
Keep stirring it!
You want to see helicopters? Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr I'll show you helicopters
Dont let it thicken
Ur paranoid
4 years ago today, this was the first ‘recipe’ I tried from babish, and I haven’t stopped cooking since. I started with something difficult, but I have no regrets once or ever. Thank you Andrew for everything, and dont stop cooking, since you’re the best fella out there.
"Paulie had a system where the Shinebox used to liquify in the pan with just a little bit of oil".
Maybe you didn't hear about it, you've been away a long time. They didn't go up there and tell you. I don't shine shoes anymore.
it was a really good system
I was really disappointed when I tried to liquify the garlic after watching the movie. Ruined my childhood.
The AvaloniaN does it not work?
Nathan Wilson
The video itself said it wasn’t true
You watched goodfellas as a kid?!?!?
Rafi Brown i feel like the majority of people who saw the movie saw it as kids
Still tastes delicious so my childhood survived with only minor ruining
I love watching his original videos. Such simple recipes and meals and look at how far he’s come now. Doing fancy and exquisite dishes yet he simplifies them down for all of us to understand and try. Truly an awesome individual. Love you babi
You should make Clemenza’s sauce from the Godfather.
That's what I'm talking about!!
"Little bit of sugar, some wine... and that's my trick"
YES
And than Taste with a peace of breat like Santino
Facts!
Best sause ever!!!!
Just finished making this sauce! Came out absolutely phenomenal thanks for providing the recipe
Amazing how you can actually hear the accent of the actors in your head by just reading the comments lol.
" you gotta have the pohk"
"that's the flavor."
Ahhhhhh that's the flavor!
That's the flavaah
ahhhh that's- that's- that's the flavah
Thas, that’s the flava
Man I absolutely love these videos, also the music fits so perfectly dont ever change it. Keep them coming
please never change the music lol
Anthony Aguinaga what s the song ?

"I'm sure they wouldn't do this in prison, but... it's my house"
I don’t get it. You’re just quoting the video.
Ducky Duck he’s saying it’s funny
Sawcon Deez nuts
Nah, he’s just quoting a funny part of the video to get likes.
Ducky Duck if people want to like it let them like it you’re actually getting butthurt over a comment from 2 years ago
Sawcon Deez nuts
I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to sound butthurt. You came with an explanation and I responded with a more likely explanation. I don’t see how that sounds butthurt but ok.
In my opinion, this video is really what made Babish a legend. He started strong with Parks & Rec, but this dish is different. It is the dish everyone remembers. It set up Babish’s potential and execution of his larger image. Epic.
Honestly still one of my favorite recipes you've ever done. I always comes back for this one
You forgot the most important step,
Getting your shinebox.
MMMMOTHERFUCKING MUTT
I actually burst into laughter
Hahahahahahaha awesome
😂😂😂
Now the problem here was that OP was a made man...
Vinny was played by Scorsese's dad, and his mom played Tommy's mother.
I need to stop watching cooking related videos before bed.
Same
Tell me about it.
And eating crisps.
This series honestly makes me feel so much better. Cooking is my therapy and so this series is true comfort. Thank you babish. It makes my day with every episode
"Few stems of Basil" Whole plant goes in.
Rest in peace Ray. Easily some of my favorite roles of all time.
I remember watching goodfellas and the scene of them in prison was the main one I went “this really is too much now, there’s no way this is true.”
Watched a documentary about the real life story and it was real prison guards who worked the prison at that time saying it was exactly as it looked on camera.
what's the documentary called
Where can I find that doc?
@@Sarah-ev1gj I believe the documentary was called....the guy who becomes a goodfeller but turns rat in the end
I thought the exact same thing. The goodfellas probably got some privileges from bribery, but they played it up for the movie. Then read an article in the paper about 25 years ago concerning prison guards in upstate New York. They were busted for providing wiseguys in the joint with pretty much what Henry describes.
If you look up michael franzese, he’s a real life gangster, he said it was all fake that this never happened in prison
The sausage big Paulie was whippin up when he gave Henry the "so long" cash gets me hungry everytime

This is the second recipe of yours that I have made and it turned out amazing. Fairly straightforward sauce but the flavors are so complex and every ingredient plays it's part perfectly.
This was made for a going away for an Italian friend of mine and he was blown away! Thanks again for another fantastic recipe!
If you ever have another make/eat what you watch contest, I would love to compete!
Watching this in January of 2021, it's great to see how far you've come. Cheers to you Babish!!
My friend and I cooked this for my dad over several hours. We had to go to two butchers to get the crazy amount of meat, and we started at 6.00 and didnt eat until 11.00. Didnt care though, it was one of the most delicious things we've cooked. You sir are the real deal!
You could be sitting on the couch with your top pants button undone ten minutes after finishing Thanksgiving dinner and if this scene comes on, you’re going to feel hungry again.
I just downed two and a half bowls of homemade chili, and I am so freaking full. This just made me hungry again.
“Let those guys get to know eachother” the quote has lived on
How about a Big Kahuna Burger from Pulp Fiction?
Good idea - I can't remember, do they ever mention what's on the burger? Presumably grilled pineapple?
I thnk Pineapple, but other than that it's just "a tasty burger!" Plus, it has ketchup.
ALSO, this series is fantastic, I really look forward to new episodes. Got a wonderful, casual style that combines the slight silliness of You Suck at Cooking with the seriousness of perhaps Foodwishes. Plus, the Fraiser music and references certainly help!
No pineapple, there is a shot of Jules eating it, it's really really simple, just meat, cheese, bun and ketchup it looks like, maybe some onion.

Made this for my school. I, my family, friends & peers loved it. Thank you so much Babby, papa bless.
When my Italian girlfriend would make tomato sauce for spaghetti (or other pasta) she would add some coffee creamer into the pasta sauce to mellow out the acidity from the tomatoes. She would mostly use powdered non-dairy coffee creamer for this. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of using a carrot to offset some of the acidity… but I am definitely going to give that a try the next time I make anything that includes tomato sauce. Loving the videos! Greatly appreciated! Mangia!
Did she put too many onions in the sauce
My big brother would have loved this lol

I'm vegan and yet I still find myself watching your show. I made your pasta recipe earlier today, and I'm trying the pizza later next week. I love the show. Such a great idea!
Now that's high praise - thank you! Also try out my apple pie - apart from the egg wash, should be totally vegan - just use vegetable shortening in place of the butter!
Andrew Rea oh that's so nice of you, thank you so much! i love apple pie but haven't had it since going vegan. i'll definitely try it :)

So I'm from an Italian family from NY and the way that Vinnie is defending himself, justifying the amount of onions, is such an Italian way to talk. I truly do love this movie and also The Sopranos because they get it right and it sounds just like growing up.
You mean an “Italian-American” family from New York. In Italy they are called Americans.
who would have guessed that this fun little show four years ago would explode into what we know now nice job man you earned it.
Thank you, thank you and thank you. We made the Goodfellas gravy and followed your video and recipe. A few discrepancies but we mad it through it. We also followed your meatball recipe to add in this incredible iconic Italian meat. My thoughts. 1) When the sauce was fresh, it was very good. The next day, it was life changing. 2) When the meat balls were cooked, they fell apart and we question the quantities of cheese, bread crumps, and other ingredients. The meat balls were not to our likening on day one. On day two, we took out uncooked meatballs that we froze and put them in a "Air Fryer". This made the meatball literally the best I have EVER eaten. Thank you again for your video's, website and recipes.
"Vinny, don't put too many onions in the sauce!"
Im not put too many onion in the sauce!
@@phuquoc3012 three small onions
Happily ended up here after watching random GoodFellas clips.
You need to quit whatever job you have and do this full time. Your videos are spectacular and the food is amazing. I made my wife the Croque Madame last weekend, couldn't find gruyere I could grate which pissed me off, but she loved it....and me, wink wink.
Haha thanks dude!! And sweet I got you laid, awesome. Lotsa stuff you could use in place of the gruyere - white cheddar, fontina, even parmesan would prolly be pretty good! Just get a relatively good-melting cheese with an aged flavor.
Um, NO (said the boss of his full-time job, who doesn't want to lose access to BwB leftovers and occasional homemade snack at the office).

Man, I remember watching this four years ago. Babish has come a long way.
This was back when this channel had soul.
With the 9+ million subscribers this channel accumulated over the years, I sincerely thought I was the only one who noticed the lack of a certain kind of charm in his recent work
Wow that was quick. 🤣😅
As a Vinny who uses too many onions in the sauce, I approve this content...
This has to be the most appetizing food scene in film history
Looks phenomenal as always. Great work man!
Thanks so much!!
In Memory of Ray Liotta (1954 - 2022) 😢🙏🌹🕊
Hey you should compare this to clemenza's tomato sauce from the godfather
Yasss
The Godfather food looked atlot better than Goodfellas dishes.
"Clemenza, don't put too many onions in the sauce."
@calo10able the food that henry made for micheal looked delicious
A little sugar
The cooking scene from Goodfellas, oddly enough, was always my favorite part.
Me too!
If anybody is curious, garlic will liquefy under heat. The key is not burning the outside, which is where it usually goes wrong when people try to do it in a pan.
Try this. Peel whole garlic cloves, wrap in tinfoil, put in the oven at 300 without preheating, you want it to warm up slow. Given ~45 minutes you will have "liquid" garlic. It's the consistency of room temperature butter, basically. Stir it into oil and it disappears.
"Goodfellas Prison Sauce." Why does that sound like a euphemism?

RIP Ray Liotta
