Made meatball subs for the work crew yesterday. Never made meatballs until college, but now they're one of my favorite dishes. The original recipe I found called for making your own sauce, using three kinds of Italian sauage, etc., so needless to say I simplified it quite a bit.
1-2 lbs. ground beef, chuck, or round
1 package Italian sausage with casings removed
2 eggs
1/4 to 1/2 can of Italian bread crumbs
Minced garlic (at least 2 cloves)
Minced onion (about 1/2 a small yellow onion)
Combine all of these in a large mixing bowl, take of rings and watches and let the fun begin. Bake at 350 degrees until done all the way through. Then, depending on when you'll be serving them, you can put them in a slow cooker with a large jar of Prego or heat the sauce up immediately in a large skillet and stir the meatballs in with the sauce.
I did find that yesterday the longer the meatballs sat in the sauce in the crock pot, the better they tasted.
Serve with provolone or mozzarella cheese on a hoagie roll and enjoy. Also great the next day reheated, but there probably won't be any left.
