Who doesn't like big, juicy and tasty Italian Meatballs?
My children love MEATBALLS. They could eat meatballs every single day.
Must be the Italian blood running through their veins.
I used to buy frozen meatballs in Costco, but last few years I decided to make my own.
I make a big batch of meatballs every few months and keep them in the freezer.They are quick to defrost and use in many ways for a quick dinner.
My favorite way is to eat them smothered in my special tomato sauce my Slovak grandma used to make and parsley potatoes.
This recipe makes 30 2"-3" meatballs.
Ingredients:
- 2 lbs Ground Beef
- 2 lbs Ground Pork
- 4 Kaiser Buns (day old - chopped)
- 4 Tbsp Italian Parsley (chopped)
- 1 Onion (finely chopped)
- 8 Cloves Garlic (crushed)
- 2 Tbsp Basil (chopped)
- 1 Tbsp Oregano
- 2 Eggs
- Salt
- Pepper
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl till well combined.
Form 3" balls from the meat mixture and place it on a jelly roll pan. Bake it for 30-40 minutes.
Remove the meatballs from the oven and let them sit for 15 minutes before serving.

Perfect little meatballs, I love that you baked them!
I am not even eating meat but those meatballs look absolutely delicious!
How did you shape those so perfectly? My meatballs always come out lopsided, and seem to grow in size as I make them. :)
Delicious!
