I made this exactly as written in the recipe. I was surprised with the total simmer time being 4 hours. I tasted the sauce and meatballs after 1 1/2 hours and the meatballs are perfectly moist and the sauce is delicious. Since I made it the day before serving to marry the flavors so I am going to cut back the cook time to 2 1/2 hours. Has anyone else done this?

No, I serve them whole, but you can chop them up if you would like.

This is way more than just spaghetti! It is like it is straight from a movie! I cannot wait to make it again!
