Directions
Approximately Aurelio’s Pizza and Pasta Sauce, Aurelio’s sauce has been a family secret since Joe Aurelio opened his first restaurant in Homewood, Illinois, in 1959. Some people call the sauce sweet, but I would describe it as mild and tomatoey. There is some controversy over whether the sauce actually contains beer or not. This is the recipe we have found to be closest to the original. If you don’t wish to use beer, a little malt extract will add the same flavor. Thanks to HandsomeG and Gaga at pizzamaking.com for some clues that led me to create this recipe., Not sure where Aurelio’s is, but this reminds me of the sauce that they use at the pizza places near the beach in my region of the country. A bit sweeter than I usually make pizza sauce, but the beer keeps it from being overly sweet. used this on a Shipyard beer-flavored pizza crust, topped with lots of shredded mozzarella, sliced Genoa salami and chopped-up portabella mushroom caps. This makes quite a bit of sauce probably enough for at least 4 or 5 heavily-sauced large pizzas, I’m guessing, so I froze the remainder of my batch so it won’t spoil before I can use it up can’t be filling up on personal pizzas right now, not with Quest food to be eaten, haha.
