Steps:

• Combine seasonings with tomato sauce. Mix with ground beef as if you are making meatballs. Put the mixture into the crock pot and cook on low for 2-4 hours. When cooked, the meat will need to be broken up. The sauce is traditionally has no chunks of meat, the meat is broken up to a very fine consistency.
