My Dad's Famous Meatballs image

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.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon parsley
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs, with cheese

Steps:

  • Place the ground beef ( 7% fat is best ) in a large mixing bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Then place eggs and bread crumbs in and mix well with your hands.
  • 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.
  • Using a broiling pan so that the grease drips down inside of it, roll your meatballs according to size.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, turning the meatballs half way through.
