We served this scrumptious dish at our wedding. It went over so well that it’s been served at other weddings and family functions, and the requests keep coming!

REVIEWS:

This is a keeper, I made a large batch for a baby shower anticipating leftover but they were all completely wiped out.

So yummy! I make 1.5 times the sauce so there's enough sauce to eat them over rice.

I made these meatballs for my son's 3rd birthday, 14 years ago; they where a big hit. Everyone love them. I still make them for all the parties I go to.

This recipe is my "go to" meatball recipe. The sauce is also very good; however I usually use the Ocean Spray recipe and use 1 can of jellied cranberries and a bottle of chili sauce. Absolutely delish!

This recipe is absolutely the best!!! I make when we have parties at our house, and it never fails that somebody wants the recipe. My husband loves them and requests them often.
