Our Family Tradition to Yours
If you poll the Demos family, you will find that collectively Meat Sauce Spaghetti is our most favorite sauce.
My father had a friend from Sicily who gave him the recipe, and he knew from the beginning that he wanted to use this in a restaurant eventually…but for decades, we ate this at home on a regular basis.
When his friend died, my father suggested to an old business partner to put this recipe in another restaurant, and he was laughed and told that no one would buy spaghetti outside of an Italian restaurant.
Naturally, being a bit of a rebel at times, Meat Sauce Spaghetti was the first item he put on the menu when he was designing Demos’.
For years, there were only two people that knew the spices that went into the meat sauce spaghetti, (my father and myself) and we would make all the sauces for the two locations we had at the time.
We currently sell over 5,000 gallons in the stores and ship more through Shop. All these years later, we still get tickled that an idea that was laughed at by others has become not only our family favorite but a favorite of many of our customers as well.
