Moist Tender Meatballs Recipes

Steps:

• Soak the bread crumbs in the milk while you prepare the other ingredients.
• Put the beef and pork into a large bowl. Add the onion, butter, eggs, and parsley and season well with salt and pepper. Put the soaked bread crumbs into the bowl and mix it all together well with your (clean) hands. Form the mixture into meatballs about the size of ping pong balls.
• Heat about 1/4-inch of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the meatballs until they are browned on all sides and cooked through, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
• Shape into small meatballs (at this point you can place on a jelly-roll/baking sheet and freeze to use later, or cover with plastic wrap refrigerate up to 24 hours before using).
• Drop the meatballs into simmering pasta sauce, do not stir for at least 20 minutes or you will risk breaking the meatballs.
• Continue cooking in the simmering sauce for another 20 minutes (depending on how fast your sauce is simmering 40 minutes total should fully cook the meatballs).
• After the 40 minutes cooking time continue cooking your sauce with the meatballs in for as long as desired.
• **note** you may also bake the meatballs at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes or until cooked through.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet. Add onion, cooking until soft but not colored, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and cool slightly.
• Combine bread and milk in a bowl to soak for 5 minutes. Squeeze excess milk from bread and finely chop. Add chopped bread to the bowl with onions. Add all the remaining ingredients except the tomato sauce. Gently fold with hands to incorporate ingredients, but do not overmix or meatballs will be tough.
• Bring tomato sauce to a simmer in a large deep-sided skillet. Pinch 1/4 cup of the meat mixture and gently form a ball with wet hands. Drop the meatballs, as they are formed, directly into the sauce. Cover and simmer, stirring carefully a few times until meatballs are cooked through, about 30 minutes. Serve meatballs with sauce and grated Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, croutons, sweet onion, egg, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, red pepper flakes, and Cajun seasoning. Form the mixture by hand into meatballs.
• Heat the olive oil and melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the meatballs in the skillet, and cook, turning constantly, 20 minutes, or to desired doneness.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine beef, bread crumbs, cheese, eggs, garlic, pepper, salt, and wine. Mix well.
• Shape mixture into 1-1/2" or 2" meatballs.
• In a large pot, bring sauce to a boil. Add meatballs one at a time, and simmer over medium-low heat for 40-45 minutes.
• Serve over pasta, or on hoagie buns for meatball subs.

Steps:

• Allow meats to come to room temperature, and place in a mixing bowl.
• Separate the egg, discarding the white, add yolk to meat.
• In a separate bowl add milk to breadcrumbs and mix thoroughly to a loose but soaked slurry.
• Combine all ingredients with meat, and, using a fork, mix thoroughly until meats are fully mixed and seasonings evenly distributed in the mix.
• Allow to stand for 20 minutes, allowing herbs and seasonings to mix with the meats.
• Pluck the meat out gently, and gently roll into 1-1.25" balls of regular shape, smooth on the exterior, and place on a griddle pane.
• Insert in a 350* oven, and cook approximately 20 minutes, or until done.

Steps:

• Mix all meatball ingredients well. Roll into balls and place on a cookie sheet. Place cookie sheet in the freezer. When meatballs are frozen, place in serving-size baggies (plan on 5-7 meatballs per person). (Using a Food Saver works well). Freeze until ready to cook (do not defrost). Place frozen meatballs in a covered casserole dish or dutch oven and pour bottled barbecue sauce (such as Kraft Spicy Honey) or the sauce of your choice over meatballs and bake covered at 350 for 1 hour. Serve over rice or make meatball sandwiches.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients except for the flour and oil.
• Use your hands to form the mixture into about 24 walnut-sized balls.
• Spread the flour on a plate and coat the meatballs.
• Heat the oil in a skillet, add the meatballs and cook over high heat for about 3 minutes, turning to brown all sides.
• Lower the heat a little and cook for about 12 minutes or until cooked through.
