Homemade Meatballs

35 minutes || My rating: 10/10 || Difficulty: Easy

These meatballs are great for a party or for some awesome spaghetti and meatballs. This recipe yields 30 large meatballs. 

1. Mix all the following together until blended, but do not over mix:

• 2 pounds ground beef
  
• 2 pounds pork sausage
  
• 1 cup shredded parmesan
  
• 2 eggs
  
• ½ cup of fresh chopped parsley
  
• tablespoon of salt
  
• ½ tablespoon pepper
  
• 3 cloves minced garlic
  
• ½ cup of seasoned breadcrumbs

2. Make 30 evenly sized meatballs and place on a sheet pan with a greased cookie grate over it – you may need 2 pans. Pro-tip: the cookie grate allows you to get even browning around the entire meatball, but you can just bake these in a 9 by 13 pan if you don’t have one. 

3. Bake for 20-30 mins at 350 degrees until cooked through, about 160 degrees due to the pork sausage. Note: You can freeze these if desired or use immediately. I like to put these in a crock pot with marinara and use for meatball sliders.
