Michael's Of Brooklyn Homestyle Gravy Sauce

Michael's Of Brooklyn Homestyle Gravy Sauce is a small-batch–styled jarred tomato sauce that reads like a short grocery list: imported Italian tomatoes, onions, carrots, Italian olive oil, celery, salt, pepper, fresh basil, fresh parsley and bay leaf — nothing else. On grocery shelves you’d spot it in the pasta and jarred sauce aisle, tucked between other regional or artisan brands, canned tomatoes, pestos and specialty olive oils — sometimes featured near a shelf of gluten-free or non-GMO products. It fits into a wide range of shopping trips: weeknight pasta rescues, meal-prep Sundays when shoppers make large batches to reheat, or cozy movie-night dinners where a quick pan of spaghetti is comfort food. The brand leans on Brooklyn authenticity and Italian-restaurant tradition — vintage neighborhood charm, small-scale craftsmanship, and a target demographic that values “real” ingredient lists and a local story: shoppers who want simple, honest labels without industrial additives. The jar’s label leans into health halos — Certified Gluten-Free, Non-GMO Project verified, and the proud “Nothing Else!” declaration — but it stops short of organic certification. In plain language, this is a processed pantry sauce: made from whole vegetables and oil, cooked and jarred for shelf stability. Sensory notes: a bright tomato aroma, slightly chunky texture with softened onion and carrot threads, a warm olive-oil finish and herb-scented top notes; packaged in a 16-oz glass jar with a screw-top ideal for spooning onto pasta, reheating for a gravy, or using as a base for simmered dishes. The ritual is quick and familiar — warm, stir, serve — a pantry staple that bridges homemade flavor and convenient preparation.
