-
Process the canned tomatoes through a food mill or blender to remove seeds and skins, creating a smooth puree.
-
Heat a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat and add the ground beef.
-
Brown the beef, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon until no pink remains, then drain excess fat if necessary.
-
Reduce heat to medium and add the tomato puree, tomato sauce, water, paprika, cayenne pepper, Worcestershire sauce, HP sauce, A1 steak sauce, Louisiana hot sauce, dried mint, chile powder, salt, cumin, coriander, cloves, allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, black pepper, white pepper, onion powder, Peychaud's bitters, and sugar.
-
Stir well to combine all ingredients, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
-
Cover the pot partially and let the sauce simmer on low heat for 3 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
-
Check the consistency; if the sauce is too thin, stir in the bread crumbs a little at a time until the desired thickness is reached.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed before serving.
