This recipe was inspired by Ina Garten's "Real Meatballs and Spaghetti" recipe but the hubster and I have improved on it, in our humble opinion. :-) -Claire (& David)
Ingredients:
2 pounds of meatloaf mix (ground veal, pork and beef)
4 slices of bread, crumbled
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 large egg, beaten
basil, oregano, garlic powder to taste
Mix all ingredients together and roll into 2-inch meatballs. (I use a tablespoon scoop to make them sized evenly.) Sprinkle with favorite seasoning (We used Holy Voodoo)
Cook in your smoker at 300-350 degrees for about 30 minutes with your preferred wood chips.
Place in favorite sauce and simmer a little while. (I have made sauce from scratch but lately have used Classico Organic Tomato, Herbs & Spices)
Serve with your favorite pasta.
