My Italian MIL taught me to always make my sauce with a big hunk of beef in it, so if you come across a recipe that calls for beef broth, rest assured it is only going to add lots of rich flavor- make sure your sauce starts out nice and thick,though-use tomato paste and lots of sauteed onions, that's her secret.

I've done it with good results. You may want to take a look at Rachel Ray's recipe (I think it's under tomato sauce) on her section in Food TV's website.
The beef stock (make sure you use unsalted or low-sodium if you're not using homemade) gives the sauce a deeper flavor. I'd recommend going lightly on the stock and tasting as you go to make sure you don't overpower the basic tomato taste.
Hope this helps.
Jim

I should think beef broth added to homemade spaghetti sauce would taste great.I regularly add it to homemade chili and it make an incredible difference.

I don't think I would add broth to my spaghetti sauce because it would make it pretty runny. I like thick sauce. My former MIL used to put the drippings from broiling a steak into her sauce. (yummy).I add Au jus to my sauce to give it that beefy flavor.
You buy it where the sml. packaged gravy mixes are at the grocery store. For a large pot of sauce I add about 4 or 5 tsps. Give it a try and see what you think. Judy

I always toss in a tablespoon or two of Miller's Beef Flavored Soup Base when I make my sauce, it gives it a great flavor. You can find it in the soup aisle, comes in a one pound plastic jar. You can also use the soup base for making gravy and even as a seasoning when making casseroles, soups etc.

I've always added a couple of beef boullion cubes to mine and it gives it a richer flavor I think - I do the same thing with pinto beans -

Definitely add it--the more flavor, the better. If it does make it too thin, just add some more tomato paste to help thicken it up.
I always save leftover beef gravy/juices in a small container in my freezer and add it to the large pots of sauce that I make from scratch. It really enhances the taste.

Yes, beef broth is great with most tomato recipes. Adds a real richness. Try it, you'll like it!

I use brown gravy mix to soften the tomato presence in my spaghetti sauce, and I never use tomato paste - it's too strong. Tomato sauce and a pkg of brown beef gravy mix is perfect.

I have sauce on the stove right now & it needs a meatier flavor. I have brown gravy mix in the pantry & wondered if I could add it to my sauce.
Thank you for answering my question! Im going to add it right now!

Yes, its delicious and my Italian grandmother used to add it to her sauce every time. Her key for rich flavor is start with browning meats to the pot first then add sautéed onion and garlic in the meat juices with a little EVO and lightly caramelize before adding the rest of ingredients to cook. Then she would add one or two cubes of beef bullion while it was simmering very low for a few hours.
