- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the pork neck bones and brown them on all sides, allowing a rich crust to develop. This step enhances the flavor of the dish.
- Once browned, remove the neck bones from the pot and set them aside.
Preparing the Sauce:
- In the same pot, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until the onions become translucent and fragrant.
- Pour in the diced tomatoes with their juices, tomato sauce, and chicken broth. Stir to combine.
- Add the dried thyme, oregano, smoked paprika, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Return the browned neck bones to the pot, ensuring they are nestled into the sauce.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the neck bones are tender and the flavors have melded.
Adding Macaroni Noodles:
- In the last 15 minutes of cooking, stir in the cooked elbow macaroni noodles. This allows the noodles to absorb the savory flavors of the sauce.
- Adjust the seasoning if needed and continue simmering until the macaroni is warmed through.
- Remove the bay leaf and discard.
