Today I'm stepping a little outside the world of barbecue to make some fresh italian tomato sauce to use on pasta and other items.  I have been 'studying' the art of making tomato sauce for a while and this sauce is a basic sauce that can be a base for many other types of tomato sauces.  The recipe is as follows:

2 28oz cans of San Marzano tomatoes (or whatever you like)
Olive Oil
About 3/4 cup of finely chopped celery
About 1/2 cup of finely chopped onion
About 2 tablespoons of finely chopped carrots
About 2 cloves of chopped garlic
3 to 4 leaves of coarsely chopped fresh basil
Salt to taste

Run the tomatoes through a food mill or food processor to puree them completely.  Set aside.  Cover the bottom of a pan with olive oil and bring to a medium heat.  Add the chopped vegetables and garlic to the pan and saute for 5-7 minutes until the veggies are fairly translucent.  Add the tomatoes and couple pinches of salt and bring to a soft boil over medium to medium high heat, stirring occasionally.  Reduce the heat to low and add the chopped basil and simmer for 20-30 minutes uncovered.
