Mama Iuliucci's FAMOUS MEAT-A-BALLS (Italian Meatballs)

Here it is...my Mom's FAMOUS Meatball recipe! This is THEE most requested of her for anything, anywhere! Whenever there is a shower, birthday, christening, etc. someone is asking for 150 to 200 of her famous meatballs Of course, she always says "Yes"! She is not one for "exact" measurements (a little of this, a dash of that), so I tried the best I could to adapt her recipe. Of course, these are best served with My Mama Iuliucci's "Don't Skip a Step" Spaghetti Sauce My Mama Iuliucci's "Don't Skip a Step" Spaghetti Sauce, but I have used jazzed up jarred sauce and they are still great. However...meat-a-balls like these deserve a homemade sauce, in my humble? opinion!.


36 meatballs
2 lbs lean ground beef ( I used 1 1/2 ground sirloin and 1/2 bulk pork breakfast sausage)
8-10 slices white bread, broken into small 1/2 inch pieces (or you can use rolls or any stale bread you have and want to use up)
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
1 teaspoon italian seasoning (or to taste)
2 teaspoons parsley flakes (or to taste)
1/4-1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (or Locatelli)
1-2 teaspoon salt
1/4-1/2 teaspoon black pepper
olive oil or vegetable oil (for frying)

Mix all ingredients gently in a large bowl until well combined.
Roll meatballs 1 1/2- 1 3/4" in diameter.
Heat about 1/4" of oil over medium heat in a large frying pan.
Fry meatballs in oil, rolling frequently, until evenly browned and juices run clear.
Drop meatballs in your favorite sauce (I highly recommend My Mama Iuliucci's"Don't Skip a Step" Spaghetti Sauce recipe#26947) and let simmer for awhile to flavor sauce or just serve with your favorite pasta and sauce.
Tip: You can also bake or broil these if the frying part is too much of a hassle-- I use my broiler pan if I bake them, so the fat drips down and away from the meatballs.
