Italian Style Meatballs: Plus Instructions and Video for Grinding your own Beef
Italian Style Meatballs that are quick and easy to make! You can use ground beef from the market or check out my video and instructions for grinding your own beef! I’ve been making these meatballs for as long as I can remember, but this is the first time I’ve written the recipe down, making them official! I usually use all beef in my meatballs, but occasionally I will add some pork. Feel free to use whatever meat combo you like to use.
I really like to use buttermilk in my meatballs as it has more flavor than regular milk and it helps to tenderize the meatballs. I like to chop the onion, garlic and parsley very fine, my daughters are not big fans of chunks of onions in their meatballs. Sometimes, I use my chopper to almost puree the onions, parsley and garlic, so the meatballs get all the flavor and moisture from the aromatics, but no one can detect any chunks!
