Uncle Steve's Italian Specialties Information

A family man with traditional values and an appetite for life, Steve Schirripa, best known for his role as Bobby Baccalieri on the acclaimed HBO series, The Sopranos, created Uncle Steve's Italian Specialties in 2014 as a tribute to his late mother who made a great sauce, the best sauce in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, per Steve's childhood friends. “We start with organically grown whole tomatoes from a small farm in Italy. Fresh organic vegetables are chopped up with a little olive oil, sea salt and pepper and the ingredients are simmered over a low flame for many, many hours to break down the tomatoes. Because our tomatoes are naturally sweet, we don’t add any extra sugar. With no GMOs, no pesticides, and nothing artificial, you can be confident you are feeding your family not only great tasting products, but nourishing them as well,” said Schirripa. Uncle Steve’s tomato sauce is USDA organic certified; it is certified kosher and parve by Kof-K of New Jersey and in 2016 Uncle Steve’s was granted certification by the Paleo Foundation, a group organized to maintain the integrity of the Paleo label, while helping Paleo dieters easily recognize clean food products. Out of thousands of certified products, Uncle Steve‘s is the only tomato sauce certified by the organization. For more information about the foundation and its mission visit paleofoundation.com. Steve Schirripa can be seen Friday nights on CBS’s Blue Bloods as Detective Anthony Abetemarco.
