Steps:
- Place neck bones and water in pressure cooker and after it starts steaming, cook for 30 minutes. This cooking method is used to remove fat from the neck bones.
- You can also boil the neck bones in a pot for 90 minutes.
- Remove the liquid from the neck bones in the cooker; replace liquid with the spaghetti sauce.
- Bring to a simmer stirring often, so the neck bones or sauce won't stick to the bottom.
- Simmer for about 15 minutes to heat up the sauce.
- Serve with cooked pasta sprinkled with cheese.
- NOTE: If you serve this to your guests, warn them before hand that this dish is so good it'll curl their toes and make them speechless for a while.
- I felt like I was in heaven while eating it. LOL.

NECK BONES (PORK NECK AND NOODLES)
This simple dish features pork neck bones simmered in seasoned water that slowly cooks into a broth. Elbow-shaped pasta is then added into the water to absorb all the meaty flavors. Erika Council, a software engineer who is also a professional cook and a food writer, shared the recipe, which she learned from her maternal grandmother, Geraldine Gavin Dortch. It shows up amid the more elegant dishes on the family Thanksgiving table as a subtle reminder of the food their enslaved ancestors cooked from the parts of the pig they had access to. It's a surprisingly rich, comforting and delicious dish coaxed from only a few ingredients.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Season neck bones all over with salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes. Add neck bones to pot and sear for 4 to 5 minutes, then flip and brown the other side, 4 to 5 minutes more. Add onions and 3 cups water. It's O.K. if the water doesn't cover all the neck bones; they will cook down.
- Reduce heat to low, cover and slowly simmer, stirring occasionally, 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the meat is very tender and falling off the bone.
- Remove the cooked neck bones to a separate bowl. Bring liquid to a boil, then add pasta and more salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Stir constantly for the first 2 to 3 minutes to keep pasta from sticking. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes, or until pasta is al dente.
- Meanwhile, if you'd like, remove the meat from the bones using your fingers or a fork. Discard bones and any cartilage. When pasta is done, stir the cooked meat back into the pot. Serve hot alongside a heaping of greens (collard or mustard) and a hunk of cornbread.
