I made Chef John'southward meatloaf a week or so agone and it was quite tasty which fabricated me excited to effort his meatball recipe. The staff of life crumbs I used in this recipe were made from homemade garlic-butter croutons and I cutting back on the salt just a bit. To make uniform meat balls, I used my pocket-sized cookie scoop. Later on baking my meatballs, I drained the fat off of them and added them to a homemade marinara and permit them sit in the sauce for 20 minutes or then before I served them on pasta. The family unit actually thought these were quite good. They held up well (to both cooking in the oven and sitting in the marinara) and had a nice flavor. Adjacent time, I'd double the italian seasoning but that'southward actually but personal to our family.

These meatballs were awesome! I added more than breadcrumbs than the recipe called for, left out the reddish pepper, and used beefiness broth instead of milk. They were a large striking and I even posted a moving-picture show! Thanks Chef John!
06/27/2016

Excellent meatballs! They are perfectly seasoned! I prefer to mix the bread crumbs with milk in a large bowl and allow it to rest for xx minutes then mix in the eggs, parsley, parmesan cheese, the sautéed onions with garlic and all of the dry seasonings into this bowl. In a split large bowl, I mix the beef and pork together then mix the contents of the previous basin into the bowl of meat and identify it into the fridge for an hour or so before forming the meatballs. I remember that by doing so – everything mixes together more evenly. I detect it impossible to mix the beefiness and pork together without using your hands, same goes for mixing the meat with the remaining ingredients. I didn't notice any toughness in the meatballs by doing it my way. I've heard numerous times to not work ground beef too much otherwise the meat will turn tough. I don't believe that myth. I use an ice foam scoop to class the meatballs and pack them into assurance with wet easily. I added half of the cooked meatballs to a simmering pot of marina sauce and finished simmering them in the sauce for an hr. The remaining meatballs were put in a freezer bag and frozen for later on employ.

These are FANTASTIC meatballs! I used meatloaf mix, b/c it was cheaper (believe it or non) than buying the beef and pork seperately. I also used seasoned breadcrumbs instead of plain and stale parsley in identify of the fresh. Followed the recipe exactly otherwise and would not change a thing side by side fourth dimension. I was scared b/c the mixture was so soft (fifty-fifty later refrigeration), simply I proceeded on, and I am so glad I didn't add actress breadcrumbs like I wanted to...these held their shape and were then moist, tender, flavorful and delicious...one of the all-time I've made/eaten! I used my large cookie scoop and got 26 out of this recipe. My family RAVED over these...even my ten month onetime twins couldn't get enough, lol. Seriously, these are sooooo good! I will def be using this recipe over and over~YUM! Thanks for sharing. :)

I just took these out of the oven and they were swimming in liquid!! They weren't browned or even close - the flavor of the meat is good but the consistency of the cooked meatballs is wrong - won't make once again!
01/ten/2013
These tasted really proficient and were super easy to make. Merely a couple of things: I think adjacent time I'll use perhaps a 1/3 cup of milk as they were virtually too juicy to form into balls. Also, side by side fourth dimension I will endeavor baking them with a rack in the pan as they really did brand a lot of grease and I think they would sense of taste improve without sitting in it. 3rd, I wish they would have browned up a picayune better. I even kept them in the oven for a few more mintutes at 450 and that didn't aid. But, again, the best tasting meatballs I've ever made. Zip wrong with the recipe every bit written, just personal preference, a five star recipe for sure!
08/04/2012
Wow. This recipe is a keeper. I followed the recipe to a T and I wasn't disappointed. These meatballs were intended for sub sandwiches with marinara, only subsequently tasting them fresh out of the oven, I felt similar I was doing an injustice to this fine specimen of meat by slopping marinara over it. Thank you for the great recipe. I will exist using this for years.
07/09/2012
I made these by and large every bit written though I halved the recipe for my pocket-sized family unit. They were the tastiest meatball I've e'er tried! I chose to use all footing beef instead of with pork, and used 93% lean for a healthier selection. I loved that this didn't require the pan browning first. Nosotros ate these plain without a sauce with herb roasted potatoes and a salad, and it was such a tasty meal. The meatballs were very moist with a perfect texture. I'll make these from now on, and will likewise add these to my spaghetti sauce!
10/06/2012
Amazing!! Made these to add to my spaghetti sauce and they were delicious exactly as written! Nosotros froze half of them and I can't wait to utilize them for meatball subs!
10/28/2012
Ok I have already reviewed the Recipe, just I had to add this one too. I came home from work and we were having Spaghetti with Meat Sauce. After a couple of bites, I said this was a terrific sauce and asked where my bride had gotten the recipe. She smiled a little then told me how she was a little distracted when making the meatballs and how she merely added the meat to the sauce pan with the onions, and when she realized what she had done it was too belatedly. Very Funny, so I retrieve we stumbled on another Recipe "Chef John's Meat Sauce".

This was my kickoff time ever making meatballs. I thought they were a bit of a pain and did non add anything to a recipe. Simply my husband specifically asked for meatballs with his spaghetti and then I decided to try this one since it did non call for them to be cooked twice like every other meatball recipe I have ever read. I could not be happier than if I had not had to brand them at all! This recipe was super easy and super tasty! These were as easy as making meat loaf and tasted better! I cut the recipe in half for just the two of u.s. and put the full recipe corporeality of the herbs every bit my married man likes things spicy. Even the crimson pepper flakes. They were not too hot even for me and I cannot tolerate a lot of hot. I would cut them in half for children though. I was worried about the common salt considering I don't intendance for a lot of salt but I left it lone this kickoff time except for cutting it in half thinking if it was too salty I would cut it adjacent time. It was just right. We both loved this recipe. If you lot effort but one meatball recipe arrive this one you will non exist deplorable! Thank you lot Chef John for sharing this super adept and super easy meatball recipe!

These meatballs were crawly! Like most other people, I did change a few things, but only because I didn't take the verbal ingredients listed. I had 93/7% basis beef so I used ane 1/ii lbs of that and I was going to employ i/2 lb Jenni-O Sweetness Italian Sausage with casings removed. But by accident I had bought Turkey Bratwurst. So I used 2 of them and mashed them thoroughly into the ground beef. I also used about 1tablespoon of dried parsley instead of fresh, only ane/4 teaspoon ruby-red pepper flakes. And when the onion was about finished cooking, I added the chopped garlic to bring out the flavour. For me, information technology made 28 meatballs and each was 2 Weight Watcher points plus. Since it's just my married man and myself, nosotros have 2 more meals now in the freezer already in the sauce that I made and 16 more meatballs (without sauce) bagged in the freezer as well. Now nosotros can accept these delicious meatballs any fourth dimension we want.
04/29/2012
All-time meatballs ever! These were delicious and hit the spot for the hubs who was craving spaghetti & meatballs. Instead of using plain ground pork I used groung italian sausage (balmy). After baking them I let them simmer in marinara with sliced italian sausage to meld the flavors. Nosotros had leftover meatballs so made meatball subs for lunch the adjacent day. Fifty-fifty meliorate the 2nd day. Will definitely make this recipe over again!
05/14/2012
This recipe is perfect!! The meatballs held together very well, perfectly spiced!! I scooped with a cookie scoop to make sure all meatballs were even sized.
01/03/2013
Huge hit w/the boys here! Easy & quick to make. I didn't precook the onions, just chopped them fine in my mini chopper & threw them in. Decreased the common salt & pepper by ane/2 as a personal preference.
09/15/2012
Succulent meatballs. I have always baked my meatballs. Information technology gives them a bully flavor and makes it easier to cook and to cleanup. The but change I made was to employ just basis beefiness instead of beef and pork mixture, its only a personal preference. Cheers for the recipe Chef John.
04/13/2012
My husband hates italian food, but he will eat it occasionally for me and the kids. He LOVED these meatballs!! He really went back for 2nds and 3rds!! Cheers Chef John!!!
05/24/2012
Fantastic recipe - made Neat meatballs sandwiches! I dearest the red pepper flakes, they gives the meatballs a little added punch!
08/14/2012
O then delish. Loved them. I did add more than Italian seasoning, about TBL. Also added more garlic, about 4 gloves. Served them on steak Italian rolls. Put provolone cheese on rolls and so put under broiler until melted. Um Um practiced. Thank you Chef John for the recipe.

I've made big batch meatballs this mode for the freezer for years, and I use all the ingredients here except for the olive oil and salt. I never make less than v lb meat at a time, and this makes about 6 quart size freezer bags of 30 meatballs each. I don't really measure seasonings anymore, I just eyeball them. I practise have a rule of 1 egg to 1 lb meat, and no more 1 C of filler to 5 lb meat. The rest I wing to sense of taste, as many of the 600+ reviewers too do. I mix the fillers, seasonings, liquids, and eggs in a large mixing bowl, then add the meat and mix thoroughly. I don't precook anything, and information technology all comes out of the oven very tender. I use cookie scoops, small for spaghetti and large for subs, to scoop out a one-half sail pan of balls, then go back and roll them. I bake at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes, pull out the tray, drain grease, then use a spatula to loosen the balls and shake them around at fleck. Back in the oven until well browned (sometimes demand to broil a bit), and drain again before cooling and packing in freezer bags. My hubby likes meatballs, and this is the most painless way for me to satisfy his peckish. I recollect this recipe is more about process and less most amounts as everyone'southward taste is a chip different.
04/28/2014
I tried these meatballs for the start fourth dimension today. I fabricated them exactly according to the recipe like I always do when I endeavor something for the commencement time. Whenever I am looking for a particular recipe I always try Chef John's offset and so this was a footling disappointing. I'd like to make a few comments that others can use or take with a grain of salt (excuse the pun): i.The red pepper didn't make the meatballs spicy or hot and so I wouldn't hesitate to apply it again. 2.The meatballs were not "Italian" enough for me so I, like others, would increase the Italian spices or utilize fresh & 4 cloves of garlic would have been better than iii. 3.The onions only took near 10 minutes to become transparent. You don't want them to brown and taste like "fried" onions then lookout advisedly. 4. The recipe had too much onion and fabricated them taste like meatloaf. I would cut back or eliminate next time. 5. I felt 40 smaller meatballs would be better in the sauce. I made thirty but they seemed big. 6. Mine browned just slightly merely I didn't proceed them in longer as I didn't want them to dry out. May try 450 degrees & decrease the time if I decrease size. 7. I used at least i/ii cup of parsley, pressed down, and it was fine. Question: Any tips on how to keep them from going flat on the lesser? All in all a pretty practiced recipe I volition try once more. Video shows good instructions for forming and mixing. Thanks Chef John.
01/21/2013
This is honestly the all-time meatball recipe effectually! If you use the suggested ingredients and get together the meatballs equally Chef John suggests you will have tasty, juicy, flavorful meatballs every time! They besides freeze well and are just as expert reheated.
12/27/2012
I made this recipe for appetizers, so I made the balls about 1". I baked the meatballs on a cookie cooling rack on the baking sheet so the grease drains off, plus the heat circulates effectually the meatballs (350 for 12 minutes). They are perfect! Very tasty! I plan to reheat the meatballs in marinara sauce on New Years.
07/fifteen/2013
This recipe is super and piece of cake. It is the homemade taste I have been looking for. I made a few changes due to what I had on paw. I used 2 lbs. beef and i lb. Italian sausage. instead of fresh parsley and garlic I substituted with iii teaspoons garlic salt with parsley in it and held the salt equally well. The residue of the ingredients were increased by fifty% to arrange the actress beef. I got sixty meatballs out of my batch!
02/24/2013
Quite good. This recipe makes a lot. If you're non feeding a crowd, I recommend using the leftover meat in "Chef John's Blimp Peppers", which are super skilful
08/06/2012
These were some of the better meatballs I've had.
08/01/2012
Followed this to the letter; makes fabulous meatballs! Family loved them! Thanks!
03/11/2013
These meatballs were the BOMB! I have never made meatballs before that were very expert. I accept tried with like ingredients but never had a adept event. These would also be great in meatball sandwiches, because they were so flavorful. FWIW, I did not chill the meatballs because my ingredients were already cold and I was hungry! I made them well-nigh two" in size. And I did utilise fresh parsley. Dear this recipe!
03/01/2015
My Sicilian hubby said these were the best meatballs he ever tasted - even better than his female parent's - and in 10 years of marriage, I've never heard him say that almost annihilation! I pretty much stuck to the recipe, simply did add a pound of mild Italian sausage and a parcel of chopped Prosciutto (and increased the residual of the ingredients 1 1/2 times to make up for the increment in protein). Sorry John, but I remember that made a big difference in the flavor! I would strongly recommend at least adding the sausage - it makes a large impact!
12/02/2013
My swain made these meatballs. He stunk of garlic for 2 days. My dog loved information technology considering it was coming out his pores!
xi/23/2014
I've made these twice now, and I don't recall I'll ever bother to look for another recipe. For years -- well, decades -- I've gotten frustrated trying to fry meatballs without them falling autonomously, and they ever turn out a bit tough if you get them dry plenty to hold together. With these, the mixture is a chip wet, just it doesn't matter at all because they're baked, like miniature meat loaves, which is what adept meatballs should be anyway. They're easy to make, plow out terrific -- tender and flavorful -- and cleanup is a snap as long as you lot employ wide, heavy-duty foil so information technology completely covers the pan and doesn't tear. These volition be a new standard in our house.
04/xxx/2018
I accept fabricated this recipe three times and got keen reviews each time. The first fourth dimension I followed the recipe exactly. The second time I used majority hot Italian sausage for the ground pork.
08/13/2013
This was succulent! I will definitely be making these once more. I halved the recipe, using 1 lb ground beef (I didn't accept any pork on hand) and got xviii meatballs. I added the garlic to the onions about halfway through the cooking time, and used Italian breadcrumbs. Thank you lot, CJ!
02/08/2015
I had to add together more staff of life crumbs ( the practiced Italian ones that we all use.) I did not have parm cheese on hand ( oops.) I did his cooking method. I wanted to simply throw them in the sauce uncooked. I only made 20 balls . wife loves big assurance.......so I saved half the balls for some other noodle journeying. excellent balls!
02/12/2014
These were the all-time! We used two lbs of beefiness and 1 lb pork, everything else the same. They were crawly. Nosotros freeze ours into smaller portions with our foodsaver, and just pop them into the crock pot effectually noon in sauce for them to be ready for dinner! We utilize grass fed beef and local pork from a local farm too. I experience much improve about eating these than store bought!
12/21/2014
I MADE THE 1/iii Beef , 1/3 SAUSAGE ,one/3 VEAL !!! They came out fantastic !! I used my mother~in~laws family sauce recipe . It was a great compliment to sauce . I will utilise this "meat ball' recipe from now on cheers for making it then easy for me !!!!
09/24/2014
I am a meatball fanatic. These are the All-time meatballs I have ever tasted in my life! If you follow the directions, they are to perfection!!!!!
02/10/2014
Best meatballs I've ever had. I made without he onion, and parsley later on trying them with and liked them ameliorate without. Make them every fourth dimension I make spaghetti now. The entire family loves them.
06/21/2013
These are EXCELLENT as is! I retrieve that next time I will endeavor doubling the spices to add more than flavor. The taste and the texture were so good that nosotros desire more of that taste!
07/08/2013
BEST MEATBALLS EVER!!! My half-dozen-yr-one-time hates meatballs, only I made her endeavour 1 of these anyway. She went back & attempted to load her plate down with as many as she could get! I did brand i major change to this recipe: Spinach. Instead of the ground pork, I used a 10-oz pkg of chopped spinach (squeeze all the water out after thawing). I had to stop myself from eating these before dinnertime! YUMMY!!!!!
12/28/2013
theae are the bomb. Hubby got up in the dark and ate another plate. Made very few changes due to personal taste( no black pepper or pepper flakes, more parmesan and added minced green pepper). Cooked the meatballs and cut upward italian sausage in cheap canned sauce in the oven, allow it cool and skimmed the fatty, awsome.
02/09/2014
I made this tonight and they were really good. Quick and easy to make!!
09/02/2012
WOW! These are the best Italian meatballs I've ever had. Left out the parsley because I didn't accept, and decreased the cerise pepper flakes considering my family doesn't like. Still, but pure yumminess!
03/xviii/2014
These were astonishing meatballs. My daughter considers herself a meatball connoisseur and she rates these a v every bit well. I besides used more beef to pork ratio; approx 60/40 due to personal gustatory modality. Used convection bake setting and turned the meatballs halfway through baking. Information technology gave them beautiful brown colour. Using actress lean ground beef and lean footing pork resulted in very little meatball shrinkage or greasy run-off.
05/27/2012
I fabricated one-half this recipe to endeavor information technology out. I used hot Italian sausage that I took out of the casing, forth with the basis beef. I didn't sauté the onions, but rather diced them very finely and merely added them to the mixture. Later on refrigerating for an hour, the meat mixture was however quite loose and I wondered if the meatballs would concur their shape. Well, they did and were washed in xv minutes in my oven. I liked the softer texture of these, but I may endeavor a unlike ground sausage next time. Cheers for the recipe, Chef John.
09/28/2013
This is now my homemade Italian meatball recipe; I volition never use another recipe. I had no issues with the meatballs being likewise "liquidy", and in that location was hardly any grease at the bottom of the baking pan in one case they were done cooking. I love that he has usa cook the onion earlier calculation it to the mix - I don't similar crunchy chunks of onion in my meatballs, which is how my female parent'southward were (sorry Mom). This is a great base recipe - add together different spices and amounts to your liking. Every bit a side notation, I always know I've establish a expert recipe when my married man asks, "Hey, how'd you make that?!" He even says the recipe is a keeper, and so information technology shall be. Thanks for sharing it.
03/29/2013
This recipe is WONDERFUL! Don't fifty-fifty bother trying to find a ameliorate recipe. Information technology is so uncomplicated..the meatballs besides freeze well. Just make, freeze and broil them afterward. Thank you, Chef John!
07/27/2012
Best meatballs I've fabricated.
05/10/2016
Absolutely delicious! I knew this would be probably crawly because I had previously saved/fabricated other Chef John's recipes, too, so I knew that creating this one would be worthwhile the endeavour :-))
11/11/2014
This is a great recipe. Very similar to something that I've comeup with myself, without the parsley and cheese. The recipe I mad, I used hot italian sausage rather than pork sausage (which I've used in the past), I didn't have milk and then I used buttermilk powder and water, and I didn't have straight Parmesan so I used an Italian blend. My end effect was fantastic, merely really the pick of a pork sausage rather than my option of a hot Italian sausage (what the recipe chosen for) would accept been much amend. Milk vs. Buttermilk and Parmesean verses my Italian homo ten (good quality) were non important. The texture, moistness and general flavor (ignoring the hot Italian sausage) was admittedly FABULOUS....I volition absolutely make this again withwhat the recipe calls for....ground pork, not my substitution of hot Italian sausage. This is a fabulous recipe, only flawed by my on substitution.
07/03/2012
Delicious! Meatballs held their shape nicely and stood up to slow cooking in my pot of gravy. I used home made breadcrumbs, subbed my own broth for the milk and used fresh herbs in identify of the dry out. I did add a considerable amount more of crushed ruby pepper and skipped the salt due to dietary restrictions. I used soy Parmesan cheese every bit well. Great recipe and it easily amended to my needs.
03/24/2015
I made these meatballs for dinner tonight, and they were absolutely fantastic. I used ground beef and ground turkey but otherwise followed the recipe. My husband loved them, besides. I volition definitely make these again.
09/07/2015
These are by far the All-time meatballs! Everyone raves over them. I like to make a big batch, cook them and freeze. They are my go to. Cook them all the time! Great for meatball grinders too.
05/18/2014
Phenominal! This is comfort food at its best! Only made slight adjustments...used gluten gratis bread crumbs & ane/2 cup ground parmagiano reggiano cheese (cuz I bought it and was leap to utilize it!). I besides blended all dry out ingredients together (including garlic & cheese) & separately blended lightly beaten eggs to the milk/bread crumb mixture before adding each to the meat mixture. (This was so I would take to handle the meat less.) Also, I fabricated a examination burger to check taste & consistency... it simply needed a little more bread crumbs. Information technology melted in my oral fissure! Later baking 'til browned, into the simmering marinara sauce they went...heart be yet...Loved information technology!
03/fourteen/2015
Best meatballs I ever made. I added more garlic.
01/17/2014
My family went crazy over these meatballs! I was able to make eighteen with this recipe-I similar a squeamish size meatball! The only ingredients I changed was the meat. I used 1lb basis beefiness and 1lb ground Sweet Italian sausage. Volition be making these is batches and freezing them.
02/18/2015
These meatballs are fantastic! I brand a double recipe and so freeze them - they brand a great, easy weeknight meal because they defrost apace or but throw them in some sauce to simmer. I use half the salt, italian breadcrumbs and Jimmy Dean Sage sausage. YUM! Another play tricks is to utilise a minor fruit/cookie scoop (mini water ice cream scoop) to make the meatballs instead of using your easily - much neater and quick!
07/17/2017
Delicious. Volition make again. Substitutions / Additions: (1) subbed panko for regular breadcrumbs (worked not bad); (2) added 3-four TBSP actress Panko; (3) added 1 TBSP extra italian seasoning; and (4) used 1/2 Vidalia onion instead of whole onion. Cooking Notes: Made 2" meatballs, so they took a little longer to cook. Would utilize parchment instead of foil next time. Turned once halfway through cooking to brown both sides. Ran under the broiler for a minute to requite a footling extra browning at the finish. Simmered in marinara and served over a lilliputian chickpea pasta. Hearty and filling meal.
04/02/2013
The meatballs are FANTASTIC! I have e'er had trouble making meatballs but no more with Chef John'due south recipe! The meatballs are so moist and filled with such wonderful flavour - and they're great for meatball sandwiches,too - Thank You, Chef John!
02/09/2014
These meatballs are delicious. I used 2# ground beef and no pork and left out pepper flakes. Baked them as directed and cooled. Served them on a long loaf of French staff of life which I had removed some staff of life and so the meatballs would nestle in the loaf. Before calculation meatballs spread a light coating of pesto on elevation and bottom, added meatballs and topped with provolone. Added another very light coating of pesto to top of loaf. Wrapped in foil and broiled for thirty -40 minutes at 350. This sandwich was a huge hitting with my family. Served with hot broccoli cauliflower beer cheese soup and tossed salad.
12/thirty/2013
I did tweak this recipe a fleck. I didn't saute the onion, put it in the food processor (later I made my bread crumbs), and then added all of the wet ingredients with the bread crumbs and let it sit. I added the meat and mixed all together by hand. The meat mixture was a fleck loose (wet) and I thought information technology would be a mess, but they were great!!! I'thou sure the flavor would have been even ameliorate had I sauteed the onion. This will exist my go-to recipe for meatballs!
ten/18/2012
Recipe yield was 31 meatballs for me. Used a small ice cream scoop so they were uniform size. Although not seared on the exterior like pan fried they were very good and stayed together well in the sauce. Were going to do meatball subs, add some mozzerella with the left overs. Keep easily wet when shaping, makes them smooth and stay together. Volition definately make them once again.
10/01/2013
I didn't have onion pulverisation on paw, then I used a large onion sautéed in the olive oil. I commonly make my meatballs using the boxed onion soup mix, so these were a little banal for me! I'grand not certain I like baking the meatballs vs. frying them, I used a rack on the cookie sheet, only still had to balance the meatballs on paper towels later on to soak upward the grease. Not sure how much that saves on fatty calories, hopefully it does, because information technology's just equally much work and make clean upwards. I would probably make these again, just make sure I accept all the ingredients.
06/02/2014
I started to make this recipe exactly as the recipe states only had tremendous issues after adding the eggs. It produced a rather loose mixture that I could not whorl up. I did use eggs from my chickens then the sizing may take been off but the recipe does non mention egg size. I used 2 large eggs and I shall change that to two medium eggs next time. I ended up having to add together a lot more breadcrumbs to make upward for the wetness of the mixture. As others had mentioned I regret not cooking these on a tray that would drain the grease. Also something I volition do adjacent time. Overall great flavour. Later my adjustment they held together and held their shape. I did cook the meatballs for a niggling longer than specified simply more to time with the rest of the meal. I wish I had taken them out at the right fourth dimension (tasted and they were perfect) as they ended up a piffling chewy leaving them in for a little longer. Thank you for sharing. I will be making again.
04/28/2012
My Son chose this recipe for one of his cooking grade categories, so he had to follow the recipe to a tee. First of all information technology was fun to watch him practice this all by himself. Just he did a great job and the meatballs turned out amazing! Would not modify the recipe one chip. But we did used the basic ideas of this recipe to make burgers. Whoa, loved it!!!!
12/24/2014
We have allergies at our firm (corn, dairy, and tree nuts) and then I am e'er looking for recipes that I tin adapt. These meatballs were perfect even adapted to our needs! I left out the parm cheese and used slightly ground oatmeal (instead of staff of life crumbs) soaked in hemp milk. Otherwise, I used the same seasonings. Meatballs nevertheless held upwards in the sauce and sense of taste so great!!
03/21/2013
First time making meat balls. Lets but say I have only sucessfully made meatloaf once where it did Not fall apart lol. These meatballs stayed in form! I did not have whatever breadcrumbs then I googled and used oatmeal instead and added three eggs in place of 2. I used all hamburger no pork. I also used almond milk in place of cow's milk and added Chicago Steak & Chop croaky pepper and garlic alloy to the mix too. Def will exist making these again, my 7yr old is always upset I exercise not brand meatballs in our speghetti so now I have a recipe that doesn't crumble on me.
05/13/2012
Very tasty -- only slightly rich
06/09/2013
I left a review saying I did not similar these when they came out of the oven. Said to much Italian season. UPDATE: I put these in my home made sauce and cooked for an hour. Fantabulous! The Italian seasoning didn't overpower the meatball, they were tender and juicy. Even got a UMMM from Husband! Will without a dubiousness make these over again!
04/01/2013
We had to make a few nutrition modifications but this recipe is AMAZING!! One of my sons is gluten-costless & another is dairy-complimentary so I had to use gf 'bread' crumbs and unsweetened almond milk. I had 2 lbs ground beefiness, no basis pork, but this recipe is then solid that fifty-fifty with all of these changes it still ROCKED. I have made it twice and it was perfect both times. Thank you Chef John!! Information technology's a crowd-pleaser, even for my hubby & oldest son who have no dietary restrictions.
01/xiv/2015
However another great recipe from Chef John!! Made these for meatball bombers. I left out the reddish pepper flakes and doubled the batch. Definitely use foil every bit these are messy while baking. They were gone in two days with 4 of us eating them.

Hmmmm, delicious! I used this recipe to brand a meatloaf. It was and so tasty and everyone like information technology. Can't await to effort it as meatballs. The only thing I HAD to change was I to use all beef, (allergy). I really liked the season of all the correct on spices, and I also liked the moistness of the meatloaf, it was not dense but held nicely. Out with my former recipe and in with this one. Thank you Chef John!

I've been looking for the right meatball recipe ever since the cooking duties fell to me when I became a stay at home dad. This one nails it perfectly for me. No more than frozen meatballs for this family!

Very piece of cake and fast to make. I baked the meatballs and tossed them in to simmer with sauce for subs. They held their shape very nicely, and were perfect on our meatball subs. My kids didn't love the occasional spice from the red pepper only ate the whole pan of meatballs anyway. This one is a keeper!

The combination of great texture and gustation makes this a standout winner. With countless reminders over the years, it'south no secret about Italian Americans believe their grandmother makes the all-time Italian meatballs. Chef John somehow figured out which one was the real bargain, and pried it abroad from her. Great chore, Chef John.

I just made these...and like another reviewer said I used a small ice cream scoop (actually the small pampered chef cookie scoop) to make the balls...fabricated it soooo like shooting fish in a barrel. Saved a ton of fourth dimension. They had slap-up flavor. I've tried several different meatball recipes and this one is past far my favorite. They have a petty seize with teeth from the pepper flakes (might want to omit for kids) other than that I wouldn't change a thing...thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe Chef John!

Splendid! I used Italian breadcrumbs, added two table spoons of worcestershire sauce to the milk, and used lean basis beef so they weren't swimming in liquid like some other reviewer said. Thanks!

I made these last night and I did not change a thing. I always similar to follow a recipe to the letter of the alphabet when making it for the first fourth dimension. I can tell you that these are the best meatballs I have ever fabricated! Turned out admittedly wonderful. At present in that location is no need to search for any other meatball recipe. Thank yous Chef John!!

OMG! These are the best meatballs! My niece and I made them and they were to die for. I later modified the recipe and made a meatloaf. Information technology was as fantastic!
03/14/2015
These were actually good. Merely affair was the meatballs lost half their size while cooking. Adjacent fourth dimension I'll use a bacteria meat or make them bigger and put them on a cake rack or bake pan so they're not sitting in and then much liquid at the end.

I made this last nighttime and it was unbelievable!!! I added more garlic and the same amount of parsley. Used venison, beef,pork and veal. Used or bootleg sauce made from heirloom tomatoes we grow. Flavour! Season! Flavor!

Excellent!

Very good! Didn't refrigerate the meatballs before cooking....other than that followed exactly. They held upwards well when added to sauce. Oh and i didn't use foil on the pan either. I don't call up it's necessary, they did not stick
04/thirteen/2014
Very good tasting. The only thing is that if you bake them like we always do, they flatten out.
12/25/2014
The most flavorful meatballs I have always had! I merely had to leave out the cheese due to allergies., otherwise made them per the recipe. Large hit!
05/03/2016
I didn't brand whatever changes at all and they came out perfectly. This is now my go to recipe for meatballs!
09/21/2013
Expert flavor. Waaaaay also much onion. Very loose, besides. Meat did non concur well together. Will brand again, but will brand my ain adjustments.

Everyone in my family loved these meatballs! I followed the directions for the most part only deviated slightly with the seasonings- I took the advice of another reviewer and increased the Italian seasonings to i/2 tsp of basil, i/ii tsp of oregano, and 1/4 tsp of thyme. I used fresh parsley and garlic and. Tsp of carbohydrate. Wow! These were the best recipe I have followed on AR and will make these again and again. I will cutting back on the amount of common salt used- they were a tiny scrap too salty for our tastes.
09/25/2014
These turned out super tasty and moist. I baked on parchment paper and it wasn't a soggy mess. Make sure to give yourself the fourth dimension to let the mixture sit down in the fridge for and hour, really helps the mixture agree together. Thanks!

So delicious!!!!! I used a meatloaf mix for the meat, and left out the fresh parsley and ruby pepper flakes. I baked them for xv minutes and they were perfect. I used a disher and information technology made 27 meatballs. Adjacent time I will cut out a petty of the table salt, but other than that, I wouldn't change a thing!

I grind my ain pork, chicken or turkey meats. I used 1.5 lbs (1/3 each) ground chicken, pork and 85% grnd beef. I utilize ground pork rinds or coconut flour for a binder with heavy cream as I am doing Keto. I upped the seasonings a bit and instead of salt I used beef burgoo granules. I skipped cooking onions; used 2 t dried minced onions instead. I adjusted some ingredients due to using 3/four of meat chosen for (24 oz). Oh yes, I make the mixture a twenty-four hours in accelerate to allow all flavors to develop. I baked at 375 for 12 mins, flipped, turned oven off and let em ride for 15 more with oven off I shape mine a bit larger so golf ball size. Great stuff CJ! I wet my hands a few times while rolling raw meat s so none of that sticks to my hands. If your making extra: allow cool completely b4 freezing. Otherwise for some reason they turn out dry and dumbo.

This is my starting time time writing a review. My husband and I loved these meatballs. I made 19 meatballs using and ice foam scoop measuring two 1/iv inches. I also used panko crumbs instead of hurting bread crumbs. Instead of regular milk I used up my half & half. I put the meatballs that were left over (fully cooked) on a cookie canvas and put them in the freezer and then placed them in a zip lock bag. This recipe is a 5 star. These are the best meatballs.

I followed this recipe to the T and these meatballs came out with the texture of hamburger assurance.
02/06/2017
Made with veal, pork and beef as mentioned in the option. No other changes. These were succulent, not as well spicy but full of flavour. I may accept made them a bit small because they were a little dry but think that was my error. They proceed well in the freezer. Am going to attempt them again, making them a fiddling bigger. A keeper for sure.

Hi Chef. I didn't take fresh parsley on hand so I guesstimated a heaping Tbls of dried, and while I had nice freshly ground beef in the freezer the only pork I had was sweet Italian sausage, otherwise I followed your recipe.
