• Giblets and neck from your turkey
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1/2 to 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 6 cloves garlic, sliced
• 3 bay leaves

1. Cook the pancetta in a large pot over medium heat, stirring, until slightly crisp, about 5 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, rinse the turkey giblets; chop into 1/2-inch pieces.
3. Add the giblets and neck to the pot; cook until browned, about 5 minutes.

9. Increase the heat to high, bring to a boil and cook 5 minutes.
10. Stir, then reduce the heat to low.
11. Partially cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the meat is falling off the neck bone, 4 to 5 hours.
12. Remove the neck; pull the meat off the bone, shred and return the meat to the sauce.
13. Remove the bay leaves.
14. Stir in the parsley; season with salt and pepper.
