~Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a Dutch oven or large stockpot over medium-high heat.
~ Add the sausage to the pot and brown, crumbling as it cooks.
~ Once the sausage is browned, remove it from the pot with a slotted spoon and discard any excess grease.
~ Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the pot.
~ Add the onion, garlic, carrot and celery, and saute over medium heat until vegetables are soft, 8-10 minutes.
~ Return the sausage to the pot, add the can of diced tomatoes with juices, stir briefly, and simmer for 10 minutes.
~ Add the beans, beef broth and tomato sauce to the pot.
~ Add in all of the seasonings, stir well, increase the heat to high and bring to a boil.
~ Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer at least 30 minutes.
~ Add the dry pasta and continue to simmer on low for another 35-45 minutes.
~ Freeze or serve :-)
