The Best Meatballs Youll Ever Have Recipes

THE BEST MEATBALLS

I never knew how to make good meatballs until I found this recipe. I normally make mine with just ground beef and they still taste great. I've used the combination of pork, beef and veal and they are equally good. Definitely use fresh bread crumbs and freshly grate your cheese instead of using the canned variety...it really does make a difference.

Steps:

Combine beef, veal, and pork in a large bowl. Add garlic, eggs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper.
Blend bread crumbs into meat mixture. Slowly add the water 1/2 cup at a time. The mixture should be very moist but still hold its shape if rolled into meatballs. (I usually use about 1 1/4 cups of water). Shape into meatballs.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Fry meatballs in batches. When the meatball is very brown and slightly crisp remove from the heat and drain on a paper towel. (If your mixture is too wet, cover the meatballs while they are cooking so that they hold their shape better.)

THE BEST MEATBALLS EVER

I am posting my recipe so I won't lose it. I changed my recipe a while back and they are even better than ever. I have made these many times and my family says they are the best they have ever had. This makes a ton of meatballs, but when you're making, it's just as easy to make a lot as a little. You can freeze them.

Steps:

Mix all ingredients well.
Shape into meatballs.(I make the meatballs a good handful. They are probably 1 1/2 inches in diameter or more).
You may freeze for later use or refrigerate for 24 hours.
Bake at 350 for 20 to 25 minutes. Test for doneness because it does depend on the size of your meatball.
These may also be simmered in your sauce without baking. I bake them on a roasting rack to let the fat drip into the pan below, but you don't have to.
To cook in sauce,drop gently into simmering sauce and don't stir for at least 25 minutes or the meatballs will break. Simmer for a total of about 45 for your meatballs to be done. Test one to be sure.
Skim the fat off the top of the sauce if you simmer the meatballs.

BEST EASY MEATBALLS

Full of flavor from Italian herbs, Parmesan cheese, and a blend of ground round and Italian sausage, these meatballs have a nice crust thanks to a bit of time in the oven before they're slow-simmered in marinara sauce. They're the perfect complement to Sunday spaghetti!

In a large mixing bowl, stir together the panko and milk until combined. Set mixture aside to soak for 5 to 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Add the ground beef, ground pork, garlic, eggs, Parmesan, fresh herbs, onion and Worcestershire sauce to the (same) mixing bowl. Sprinkle the oregano, salt, black pepper and crushed red pepper flakes evenly on top. Use your hands to mix the ingredients until evenly combined, being careful not to over-mix the ingredients.
To make the meatballs easier to form, I recommend covering and chilling the mixture in the refrigerator for 1 hour. But if you’re pressed for time, you can skip this step.
