Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in the bottom of a large saucepan, and fry the garlic cloves 5 to 8 minutes, until brown and fragrant. Remove the garlic cloves and set aside. Place the pig's feet and pork neck bones in the saucepan and fry, turning occasionally, until the meat and bones have browned, about 15 minutes.
- Return the garlic cloves to the saucepan, and stir in the tomato paste and 1 1/2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, and pour in the tomato puree. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 3 hours, stirring from the bottom often to prevent burning, until the pig's feet are tender and the mixture begins to thicken. Stir in the sugar, pepper, and baking soda. Continue to simmer while you prepare the meatballs.
- Soak the torn bread with 1 cup of water in a bowl. Squeeze excess water out of the bread, and place the bread in a large bowl with the 6 beaten eggs, ground pork, ground veal, and ground beef. Mix thoroughly and form into 24 meatballs about 2 1/2 inches in diameter.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, stir in the minced garlic and chopped fresh basil, let them cook for about 1 minute, and then add the meatballs. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and fry them on all sides until brown, about 15 minutes, working in batches, if necessary.
- Place the browned meatballs, along with the oil, garlic, and basil from the skillet into the sauce, stirring lightly to avoid breaking them. Add the whole hard-boiled eggs, and simmer for about 1 1/2 more hours, until the meatballs are cooked, the sauce is thick, and all the flavors have blended.

MY GRANDMOTHER'S SWISS STEAK
There are a lot of swiss steak recipes here, but all of them have a lot of "stuff" in it. My grandfather was a very picky eater, and this is the way my grandmother made swiss steak. Granddaddy loved it, and we all did, too. In fact, my sister always wanted Swiss Steak for her birthday dinner. The gravy is best on mashed potatoes, but it's not too shabby over rice, either. This is not fancy, but it sure is good! My grandmother used her home-canned tomatoes in this, but it's almost as good with store-bought.

- Pour tomato mixture over steaks. Cover (I use foil) and bake at 350 for an hour or till meat is very tender.

GRANDMA STYLE HAMBURGERS (MEATBALLS WITH SWISS STEAK SAUCE)
My mom was not the best cook, bless her heart. Most meat she cooked was so dry you couldn't chew it, including the Thanksgiving turkey. My dad used to tell her "Oh Mama, u cooked the juice right outta the poor thing" lol! For that reason we all became fans of her ground beef recipes. She had a few dishes she made that were outstanding though. This is one of them. It was passed down from her mother and they both always made it on the stove top. I tweaked the recipe thru the years and I always bake them or make them in the crock pot. This prevents the meatballs from breaking up so much. Enjoy!
