Cover and set aside. In a large saucepan saute the ground beef and sausage in the salt pork grease until well crumbled and cooked. Add all the ingredients in step three, cover and simmer for about 2 hours stirring occasionally. If the sauce begins to thicken and dry out add a little water. The sauce should have the consistency of a good spaghetti sauce when done and the vegetables should be cooked down and well blended. Add the meat to the sauce, cover and simmer about 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Add water if necessary to keep the sauce at the proper consistency. Just before the judging or serving add the brown sugar and mix well. Serve hot. Makes 2 quarts. NOTES : I have used this recipe in cookoffs and taken a first and second place with it.
