The Bove Blog : Musings of the Sauceboy

After last night’s show on the Food Network, we have had so many requests for the lasagna. I still would love for everyone to try the meatballs and the different sauces, because the sauces rock Remember, the key to great lasagna is both the sauce and the meatballs.

Requesting the sauce and meatballs in your local grocery store is the only way to bring what you saw last night to your store. Trust me, the stores will listen. Just put a bug in their ear

So as not to confuse anyone, my name hasn’t changed. People still call me The Sauceboy . . . for now.

I mentioned that everyone would be surprised with the results. Bobby–or, since I lost, Mr. Flay–did have a great tasting lasagna, but he noted there were 2 different styles: contemporary and traditional. Contemporary defeated traditional on that day, but there are reasons why traditions live on. During the episode, when Bobby was interviewing people on the street, one person said that when she conceptualized lasagna, she pictured it as 8 layers of pleasure. I hope everyone gets that same image when they taste our lasagna

The emails are pouring in and I humbly appreciate all of the support. Most of the emails contain requests for us to ship the lasagna. Unfortunately, it’s a very difficult request, but people can check out our recipe page for the original recipe: Nonna’s lasagna. Creating our signature dish needs the secret ingredients: the sauce and meatballs. There is a possibility that your store already carries both. If they don’t, please let them know you would like them to carry them. Stores listen very carefully to their customers. It may be worth mentioning that you saw our sauce and meatballs on the Food Network show Throwdown with Bobby Flay. If that doesn’t get their attention . . . you might want to shop somewhere else . . .

I give my sincerest thanks to everyone who watched the show. Just in case that you missed it, check the Food Network’s site for the future listings. If the show enticed you, come and see us at the restaurant. Please ask for the Sauceboy when you get there . . . and remember . . . “What’s Wednesday night?”

Lasagna Night!
