Homemade Meatball Recipe
Ever since I watched the movie “Wedding Singer” with Adam Sandler, I wanted to learn to make delicious meatballs like the old lady who performed, “Rapper’s Delight.” Not that I wanted to make a meatball that I would just hand to someone, but one that would actually stick together and taste good! I searched and searched for recipes online and couldn’t really find anything that sounded like the ingredients I wanted to use. I asked my family and friends and amazingly enough, nobody really knew of a good recipe. I refused to spend $17.00 on a bag of meatballs at Costco any longer and was determined to make my own. And tonight, we did. That’s right…my husband and I together made a delicious, easy Meatball Recipe that we will be making again in the future, as well as sharing with family and friends. Basically, we combined a few different recipes together with our favorite ingredients and came up with this delicious Meatball Recipe!
If you’re a fan of meatballs and are looking for a twist on the classic recipe, then venison recipes might be just what you’re looking for. Venison is a delicious and healthy alternative to beef and can be used in many different recipes, including meatballs. With its rich, gamey flavor, venison can add a unique and delicious twist to this classic dish. If you’re looking to try something new and delicious, then give venison meatballs a try with this easy recipe given in this link here.
INGREDIENTS
- 3 lbs Ground Beef (80% lean)
- 3 tsp minced Garlic (I use the jar of garlic)
- 1 cup grated Parmesan
- 2 cups Italian Bread Crumbs
- 4 large eggs, beaten
DIRECTIONS
1 – In a small bowl, slightly beat the eggs.
2 – In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, minced garlic, grated parmesan, bread crumbs and eggs.
3 – Shape the meat into meatballs and cook in a skillet or countertop electric skillet.
4 – Cover and turn occasionally. Drain grease and serve with spaghetti noodles and sauce or with sauce alone. Enjoy!
This is a really yummy recipe and I am so excited we made a recipe that our family enjoys (kids included – woo hoo!!). I definitely encourage you to try this out and let me know what you think of it. I hope you enjoy it!
Have you tried the Homemade Meatball Recipe?

I haven’t tried the recipe yet, but I’m going to. I haven’t had homemade meatballs in a long time. I prefer homemade over frozen meals.
This was my first time making homemade meatballs and I love the way they turned out!!! You should definitely try making them and let me know what you think.
I need to try this. I admit, normally I buy the already made meatballs but I bet these would be so much better!
I used to buy the pre-made ones, but haven’t because they are so dang expensive. I’ve been looking and looking for a good meatball recipe, but hadn’t found one. So I combined a few and added the spices I love to use and wah lah! Yummy meatballs!
I bet homemade meatballs are just THE BEST! They are going to make everything so much batter and I’m going to have to try and stop being lazy and make some myself.
We used leftover meatballs to make Meatball Sandwiches and they were delicious! I’ll be sharing about those on the blog.
Oh my gosh YES! This exactly what I am craving! This looks amazing! I need to make this for dinner!
They were good on pasta, in sandwiches or just by themselves. If you try them, please let me know what you think.
Now, I’m craving a big pot of spaghetti and some homemade meatballs. This recipe sounds simple and delicious!
It was super easy and yummy with Ragu sauce and spaghetti or angel hair pasta (or even linguine). So yummy!
I just bought ground beef so I am ready for some meatballs! My sister suggested a meatball sub as a dinner option before I went shopping.
I can still remember that Adam Sandler scene. It also makes me interested about meatballs. I think your recipe is awesome.
This is perfect! I have always struggled with meatballs, which I love, love, love. Thanks for explaining it so much.
My whole family loves meatballs. I should make them tonight! Yummy!
I have tried to make my own meatballs at home, and usually, they come out mediocre. I’ll have to give this a try! I am always up for a good meatball sub or meatballs on my spaghetti.
I haven’t made homemade meatballs in a long time. Looking forward to giving your recipe a try.
This looks amazing. Homemade meatballs are the best. I’m going to have to give this a try soon. My youngest loves meatballs.
There’s nothing like homemade meatballs. My hubby gets together with my brothers-in-law about twice a year and they make large batches of meatballs then cook, seal & freeze them. It makes my life so much easier not to have to make them every Sunday (pasta day). Your recipe is very similar to theirs so I know they taste awesome! 😉
I am married to an Italian so meatballs are HUGE in my house. This recipe looks wonderful, thanks!
My family loves spaghetti and meatballs and this recipe is so simple!! I’ll have to give this a try 🙂
We all love homemade meatballs. This recipe seems easy enough. I totally want to try your version – it’s a bit different from others we’ve made in the past.
As I can’t use bread crumbs (diabetic and need low-carb) do you have a suggestion for a replacement by chance? Sounds like you know a lot of great recipes!
I’m like you,I always usually buy meatballs already made!! Yours look so good and simple ingredients!!
My kids love pasta and meatballs. The dish looks so good and the recipe sounds pretty easy to make!
I am looking out for some new meals to serve as my husband is coming home next month. I want to surprise her with different recipes I got.
These home made meatballs look delicious.
This looks super easy and yummy. My kids love meatballs. I will need to try this soon. 🙂
Hey shannon, these look great. Meatballs are my serious comfort food!
