  • To the slow cooker, add the wine, broth, tomatoes, tomato paste, onion, garlic, celery, carrot, thyme, sage, red pepper flakes, butter, and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
  • Once done cooking, remove the beef, let cool slightly, then shred the meat and discard the thyme. Add the shredded meat and parmesan to the sauce.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain well.

For Salad:
