Amazing Homemade Meatballs Recipes

HOMEMADE MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease rimmed baking sheets lightly.
• Heat bacon fat in a pan over medium heat. Saute onion and garlic in the hot pan until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• While mixture cools, cut the loaf of bread in half horizontally. Scoop out the white bread, leaving a boat-like shell of crust; save crust for pizza bread or garlic toast. Tear white bread into pieces (should yield 5 to 6 cups) and place into a bowl.
• Combine milk, chicken broth, and eggs in a bowl. Pour over the torn bread. Mash bread into small pieces with your fingers. Stir in cooled onion and garlic; mix well. Add parsley, salt, Worcestershire, mustard, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Mix very well.
• Combine ground beef and sausage in a large mixing bowl using your hands. Add bread mixture, about 1 cup at a time, mixing well with your hands between each addition, until all is combined evenly.
• Form meatballs and place on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake until meatballs are browned and no longer pink in the centers, about 30 minutes.

MEATBALLS

Steps:

• 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.
• Heat the oven to 425°F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Using a medium cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop and roll the mixture into 2-tablespoon balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. (I recommend greasing your hands with a bit of olive oil to prevent the mixture from sticking.)
• Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer measures the internal temperature of the meatballs to be 160°F. Remove pan and transfer to a wire cooling rack.
• Serve meatballs immediately and enjoy!

THE AMAZING SWEDISH MEATBALL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a large bowl, combine ground beef, ground pork, chopped onion, bread crumbs, egg, and milk. Season with parsley, Worcestershire sauce, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Mix well with your hands. Shape into walnut-size balls, and place on baking dish.
• Bake for 30 minutes in preheated oven. Turn frequently so they brown evenly on all sides.
• To make the sauce: In a saucepan, combine oil, flour, paprika, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Cook over medium heat until sizzling. Stir in hot water and sour cream until smooth and heated through.
• When meatballs have cooked 30 minutes, pour sauce over the top, and return to the oven for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

EASY HOMEMADE MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Combine beef and egg in a large bowl. Add bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix together, but do not overmix, as it will get tough.
• Shape into 1- to 2-inch balls.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook meatballs in the hot skillet until browned and no longer pink in the centers, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Meanwhile, heat marinara sauce in a pot over medium-low heat. Add cooked meatballs to sauce and let simmer for added flavor, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the Oven to 400°F.
• Use broiler pan or baking sheet with tin foil sprayed with non stick.
• Grate the cheese and cut the onion into small pieces.
• Mix all ingredients except for beef or other meat (great to do while you are defrosting the beef).
• Include the meat and mix together.
• Put small balls of meatballs on the baking sheet or broiler pan.
• Put in oven for 20 minute.
• Put in tomato sauce and serve over whole wheat noodles.

THE BEST MEATBALLS

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.)

HOMEMADE MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix them together throughly with your hands.
• Scoop out about 1 tablespoon worth of meatball mixture and squeeze it several times to pack it tightly.
• Roll the mixture between the palms of your hands to form a 1 1/2" meatball.
• Arrange each meatball on a baking sheet.
• Bake the meatballs at 425 degrees F for 10-12 minutes.
• Once cooked, remove from oven and place on cooling rack.
• Allow the meatballs to cool down before trying to pick them up or they will break apart.
• Enjoy!
