Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and brush a baking sheet with olive oil. Pulse the pepperoni in a food processor until ground; transfer to a medium bowl (no need to rinse out the food processor). Add the beef, panko, egg, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the bowl; mix with your hands until combined. Form into 20 golf ball-size meatballs and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Bake, turning halfway through, until browned, about 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the roasted red peppers and tomato paste to the food processor and puree until smooth. Transfer to a large skillet along with the chicken broth and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the meatballs to the sauce and continue to cook, gently stirring to coat, until the meatballs are tender, about 10 more minutes. Divide the meatballs and sauce among bowls.

Steps:
- Combine beef, veal, and pork in a large bowl. Add garlic, eggs, cheese, cinnamon, fennel seeds, parsley, red pepper flakes, roasted red peppers, and salt and pepper. Mix all together very tenderly ( don't over mix , just bring together )
- Blend bread crumbs into meat mixture. Slowly add the water 1/2 cup at a time. The mixture should be very moist but still hold its shape when rolled into meatballs. NOTE: *** Only use enough water to get moist consistency ***
- Shape into 24 meatballs.
- Place the extra virgin olive oil, tomato juice, tomato paste in a large 9 x 13 oven pan. Stir to make a sauce.
- Place meatballs in pan and cover. NOTE: *** You will want to use 2 pans so meatballs have room and not touching each other *** Cook 2 hour at 250 degrees or until done. Serve with warmed crusty bread and sauce and napkins https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/bread/other-bread/the-best-crusty-bread-dutch-oven.html?p=7 *** They Freeze Well Too *** Enjoy !
- Enro Gay's Version for a Family Gathering with her Gravy...
- Enro Gay... " Hello, Bob... the meatballs were a huge success. I reduced the recipe by using 4 pounds meat (2 ground beef, 1 veal and 1 pork sausage) and used dry Italian bread crumbs in place of day-old bread (and adjusting other ingredient amounts to match). Since these were made for homemade meatball subs, I made them much smaller and cooked them a short time in the oven before transferring to my slow cooker. "
- " I did not use your "gravy" as outlined above, but used this instead: "
- Small onion, fine chopped Small green pepper, fine chopped 2 cloves garlic, fine chopped 3 Tbsp EVOO 6 ounce tomato paste 1/4 cup dry red wine 3/4 cup chicken broth 2-15 ounce cans tomato sauce 1 tsp dried oregano 3/4 tsp dried basil 1 tsp sugar Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
- Saute onion and green pepper in EVOO for a couple minutes, add the garlic and cook another minute. Then add the tomato paste and wine, stirring for another minute or so. Then add the chicken broth, tomato sauce and spices, stirring to combine. Bring to a boil, then simmer covered for about 3 hours... YUMMY!
- " I made it the night before, then warmed in up, transferred sauce to the slow cooker and added the meatballs to simmer on low until we got ready to eat. I will make the dinner size meatballs next time and serve to my hubby with spaghetti, a favorite of his. Thanks for a wonderful meatball recipe! "
- " Absolutely... feel free! Even though the sauce and meatballs were sealed up in my locking-lid slow cooker, my mother and I could smell this during our 1.5 hour trip to see my son... just about drove us crazy! :-) "
- " Ummm.. Thank You again... it DOES have that quality!!! Lol!!! " HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY!!!!!!!
