How To Make Meatballs

  • 1

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds 80/20 ground beef
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs

Preparation

Step 1

So here’s the line that’s going to make reading this whole post worth it: Start by beating together everything except the meat. Garlic, onion, oregano, salt and eggs.

Once everything is thoroughly mixed, then you add the meat and mix it all together.

I wanted to go with 8 balls per pound, which means 16 for 2 pounds of meat. So divide the meat in half, in half again, and again, and again.

Or you can weigh each meatball on a scale and be all picky about it.
Now roll each portion between your hands until it’s ball-shaped.
