How To Serve

You can serve these meatballs over mashed potatoes (my favorite), white rice, or egg noodles. A side of green peas or Southern-Style Green Beans goes great with them.

What Type Of Ground Beef To Use

Don’t use ground beef that is too lean or the meatballs will be dry and lacking in flavor. Ground beef in the range of 85-90% lean is perfect. Ground chuck can be used but it has a lot of fat and the meatballs will produce lots of grease as they cook.

Recipe Tips

Don’t overwork the meatloaf mixture. Gently mix it with your hands until evenly combined. Overmixing can result in tough meatballs.

Make Ahead and Storage

This recipe makes a large batch of meatballs. The meatloaf mixture can be mixed a day in advance and even shaped into meatballs. Cover well with plastic wrap and refrigerate until you are ready to cook them. Leftovers reheat well and will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days. Leftovers can be frozen for 2 months.
