Then you might want to break the tomatoes up before you put them into the pot, Tyler. If I'm making something that I don't want to be too juicy, I do like tenspeed said and break them up with my hands. That gives you the chance to leave juice behind and cook up just the tomato meat. It's like playing in the mud as a child, but tastier. If you want it a bit smoother once it's cooked, you could use a potato masher to get a more rustic texture.
