Italian Style Meatballs: (Plus Instructions for Grinding Your Own Beef)

buttermilk (or regular milk)

coarse kosher salt

black pepper

Italian herb seasoning blend

worcestershire sauce

beef

panko bread crumbs

onion

parmesan cheese

flat leaf parsley

garlic

Beef Chuck Roast

sandwich bread

1" x 1" pieces onion

Parmesan cheese

garlic​ ​clove (cut

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-stick baking spray.

Whisk together liquid mixture ingredients in a liquid measuring cup.

Liquid Mixture

(To grind your own beef, see instructions below.)
To use pre-ground beef:
Combine all ground beef mixture ingredients in large bowl and mix gently until partially combined. ( I use my stand mixer with the flat beater on stir speed.)  Then add your liquid ingredients and mix again until just fully combined.  Don't overmix.

Mix Together the Beef Mixture

Lay beef pieces out on parchment lined tray that will fit in your freezer.  Freeze for 20 minutes.  I used the KitchenAid Food Grinder Attachment with the finer grinding plate.  I set my mixer to speed 4.  Add pieces of beef one at a time to grinder, alternating with bread, onion, Parmesan, parsley and garlic.

Place your ground beef mixture in your stand mixer bowl and attach the flat beater.  Add your liquid ingredients to the bowl.  Mix on stir speed until just combined.  Let mixture rest for 5 minutes, so the bread particles can absorb the liquid.  Mix again just for a few turns.

To Grind Your Own Beef Mixture:

Portion and roll your meatballs.  I use a 1/4 cup or 2-ounce scoop for mine.

Place on prepared baking sheet, leaving 2" between them.  Bake for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through.  If I am transferring them to a pot of marinara sauce, I will only cook them until they are browned on the outside as they will cook the rest of the way in the sauce.

These easy oven-baked Italian meatballs are incredibly tender and juicy with irresistible flavors that will have you craving for more. Made with ground beef, onion, garlic, parmesan cheese, and parsley, these meatballs are seasoned to perfection and ready to be served in just 30 minutes!

Melt-In-Your-Mouth Italian Meatballs

bread crumbs

milk (or beef broth)

onion (finely diced or grated)

garlic (minced)

tsp black pepper

parmesan cheese (preferably real Parmigiano-Reggiano)

parsley

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.

In a large mixing bowl, add Italian bread crumbs and milk. Combine well and set aside while preparing the other ingredients, for at least 5 minutes.

Add ground beef, onion, garlic, egg, salt, black pepper, parmesan cheese, and parsley into the soaked bread crumb mixture, and mix with your hands until just combined. Do not overmix.

Portion onto the prepared baking sheet (using a cookie or ice cream scoop will make it easier). Wet your hands with water, and roll meatballs into 2&quot; diameter balls.

Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the meatballs have reached an internal temperature of 165˚F (74°C). Remove from oven and drain off any excess fat. Serve with your favorite sauce and enjoy!
