I grew up on these meatballs. My dad use to make them all the time and now I do for my family and friends and everyone loves them. We make a lot so we can have spaghetti one night and the meatball subs the next! To be honest I made the measurements as best I could but it goes by your own judgment. Once the eggs and bread crumbs are mixed you just shake the spices over the meat to cover evenly.

Ingredients

4 serv.
  • lbs ground beef1 1⁄2
  • teaspoon oregano1
  • teaspoon garlic powder1
  • teaspoon onion powder1
  • teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes1
  • teaspoon salt1
  • teaspoon pepper1⁄2
  • teaspoon parsley1⁄2
  • eggs2
  • cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs, with cheese1 1⁄2

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Place the ground beef ( 7% fat is best ) in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Preheat oven to 375°F.

  3. 3

    Then place eggs and bread crumbs in and mix well with your hands.

  4. 4

    Then put in all spices. The best thing to do is sprinkle them over the mixture evenly. I made the measurements the best I could, but I have never really measured before. I only went by my own judgment.

  5. 5

    Using a broiling pan so that the grease drips down inside of it, roll your meatballs according to size.

  6. 6

    Bake for about 20 minutes, turning the meatballs half way through.
