SUPER MOIST ITALIAN MEATBALLS
Craving some tender and juicy meatballs?? Give this recipe a try! The two secrets are the extra eggs, and cooking the meatballs in the sauce, instead of pre-baking or frying them. Ground chuck or a 50/50 mix of chuck and sirloin work best for full flavor and moistness.

AUTHENTIC ITALIAN MEATBALLS
Meatball recipes are often challenged by chefs who claim, "Mine are the best!" Even though my meatballs ARE the best, I will make no such claim. Try them for yourself! This meatball recipe was given to me by my father who got it from a little old lady from Italy that he knew. It's amazing that she gave up her recipe to him, but I sure am glad she did!

ITALIAN MEATBALLS
This is a combination of lots of different recipes. The sauce is slightly spicy, but can be altered by adding more or less crushed red pepper flakes and peppers. We eat these on a sandwich, over pasta, or even on pizza. They freeze really well either in the sauce or alone. If freezing without the sauce, place them on a cookie sheet and place in freezer until solid. Then the meatballs can be placed in freezer bags and added to pasta a few at a time.
