Sam Dalton says:

One of the best spaghetti bolognese recipes ever! This dish is so good, it's perfect to make in the slow cooker. We put this on our weekly rotation and the entire family loves it.

Greg Jones says:

This spaghetti bolognese recipe is so amazing. I don't eat pasta often, but this is definitely a cheat day favorite. The ground beef and pork may seem excessive, but it truly adds to the flavor of this dish. Shave a little fresh parm on top and you're good to go.
