Grandma's Italian Meatball Recipe

Put extra in the freezer, they heated up very well! Love these.

Can bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes then broil.

took forever, and the meat was tougher than I hoped. Meh. Find a quicker, better recipe

So amazing! Don't skip any step.

Absolutely awesome. Used half sausage meat and half beef for the meatballs. Added cooked Italian sausage to the sauce and browned pork belly

Best meatballs I've ever made. I used half ground pork and half ground beef. I didn't make the sauce. I just used jar sauce 😜

This recipe is definitely a labor of love, but it make a lot of leftovers (especially for 2 people). I plan on freezing most of the leftovers for a faster pasta night.

Added 2 teaspoons sugar and 1 T Italian herbs and 28oz petite diced tomatoes to the sauce. Used half ground beef half ground pork, Added a splash of milk to the meatballs. Grated the onions for the meatballs to draw out more moisture. As always, added far more garlic to both meatballs and sauce. Broiled meatballs on low for 12, flipped and broiled low 4 more minutes. While broiling, made the sauce. Then added meatballs into sauce and cooked in slow cooker 6 hours. Added 1 cup water to slow cooker about 2 hours into cooking.
