How To Make Grandma’s Italian Meatballs
1– In large bowl, combine the meats,cheese, bread crumbs soaked in milk,onion, eggs, garlic, parsley.salt ,pepper,italian seasoning, and worchestershire sauce
- 2– Mix thoroughly, but don’t over mix, will make the meatballs tough.
The trick to moist meatballs is softening bread crumbs in the milk 3– Form into 2 inch balls..brown in skillet with small amount of oil, on med heat, or bake in the oven for 20 min at 375. I do the oven method,Grandma always browned hers in olive oil and a little vegetable oil combined.
4– Serve with your favorite spaghetti sauce, ENJOY!
I make the balls bigger if using for meatballs subs. I slice them in half,flat side down on hoagie roll, add sauce, cheese, broil for about 10 min…
I also smash them up and add them to my sauce for lasagna..
