In this video, you will learn how to make Italian meatballs like a pro from my brother Chef Dom.
His step-by-step instructions will show you how to make his juicy meatball recipe like the top chefs in Italy. This is one of the best Italian meatball recipes, which rivals how any Italian Grandma makes meatballs. Great with spaghetti, as an appetizer or on a hero sandwich!
So, what makes the best homemade meatballs? We use 1/3 veal, 1/3 beef, 1/3 pork, and only the freshest ingredients. In this episode we went ahead and fried meatballs as well as baked them. My favorite way to eat them is by frying them, but baked Italian meatballs taste great as well. Once you have made and tasted these Italian meatballs, you will agree this is one of the best meatballs you will have ever eaten. You can also get my tomato sauce recipe by subscribing to our channel.

BTW, out here in Washington State, we have a few great pizza places now (not so back in the day), one such is, ....tah-dah---- BROOKLYN BROTHERS PIZZA. It's far to go when the traffic is bad (when is it not?) but my taste buds love it.... we used to have another pizza place called NY No.1, but the man retired and made me sad. He brought everything including the ovens and the tables and booths.... those were the days....

You should try carbonated water instead of plain water. They use it in making Sevapi which is a Bosnian meat that looks like a breakfast sausage. The carbonated water makes the meat very juicy.

The 3 meat combo is what makes the wonderful taste to these, very similar to my Grandma' Susie's recipe as passed down to me via my Irish mother, who learned to make Italian Gravy for my Dad. I would change just a bit, to match my Grandma's technique.... 3 less eggs, maybe just one egg per pound of meat; no cheese at all. Add both fresh and dried garlic spice, as they have different flavors, both I love. My mother never used fresh and we loved it. So, I use both. Add cheese when serving, as desired. Add fennel seeds and red pepper for sausage flavor.

My recipe is similar. I grind my own beef from the chuck and pork from the loin. I use 2/3 beef and 1/3 pork. Fresh ground multi-colored pepper, half as much cheese and garlic plus a pinch of ground cloves. In the summer I throw in some fresh basil. If I'm putting them in the sauce, I bake them, if in a sandwich I fry them. I enjoyed the video. Good job!

Very close to my 100 year old Italian grandmother’s recipe … except for the “seasoned” breadcrumbs. We’re from Naples… so we add raisins, stale Italian bread cut into small chunks & sprinkled with Extra Virgin olive oil… or unseasoned breadcrumbs and a little wine. The deep frying is also a no-no… 80% cooked in shallow oil… then fully cooked in the sauce which simmers all day… which tenderizes the meats like butter!

We baked ours because of the length of time it takes to fry. We used “Italian bread” or what Floridians think is Italian bread soaked in milk , crumbled and added to our meatballs. Made them super moist. You could make a fortune coming down to soflo and make real NY Italian bread instead of this white bread Italian bread they sell here.

I think my Italian grandmom used 50% beef and then 25% pork and veal... but I lost the darned recipe during a move from Arkansas to Pennsylvania and sadly my mom started showing signs of dementia and can't remember where she put her copy.

Don't know how I missed this meatball video. I just watched it and as usual you guys brought back memories for me. First, my grandmother didn't own a measuring cup. LoL. All hand measure like you. She had virtually the same recipe you have. Once in awhile she didn't have veal. We'd sit and watch her make them as kids and fight for the first one out of the frying pan..The frying pan? When she passed away I didn't want anything from her house but that frying pan. When she died it had been frying meatballs for at least 70 years. A well seasoned pan. I've got that frying pan and I could fry the same meatballs in a second pan at the same time and you could tell which were made in her frying pan. When I die my nieces get to fight over it...lol

Fellow Italian here. I use the same ingredients, except I like to add ricotta cheese in the mix. It helps keep the meatballs moist and tastes great.
