Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
- Combine ground beef, pork, bread crumbs, 1/2 cup milk, egg, garlic, salt, pepper, and allspice in a large bowl; mix until just combined. Use a rounded 1-tablespoon measure to form mixture into meatballs. Place meatballs on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through.
- While the meatballs are baking, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour. Cook, whisking constantly, for about 1 minute, being careful not to burn or brown the flour. Gradually whisk in the remaining milk and broth. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until sauce has thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce to taste and remove from the heat.
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rapid boil. Cook egg noodles at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 7 to 9 minutes.
- Drain any grease from the meatballs. Add meatballs to sauce; toss gently to coat. Turn on lowest heat to warm. Add milk or water to thin sauce if too thick.
- Drain egg noodles and serve immediately topped with sauce, meatballs, and parsley.

- Cut Bell Pepper, Vadalia onion and zuccini into slices and set aside. Begin to boil a pot of water for noodles.

Tips:
- Choose the right beef. A combination of ground beef and ground pork works well for meatballs, as the pork adds flavor and helps keep the meatballs moist. If you're using all beef, choose a ground chuck with a fat content of at least 20%. This will also help keep the meatballs moist and flavorful.
- Don't overmix the meatball mixture. Overmixing can make the meatballs tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use wet hands to form the meatballs. This will help prevent the meat from sticking to your hands.
- Brown the meatballs before simmering them. This will help give them a nice flavor and texture.
- Use a good quality Swiss cheese. A good Swiss cheese will melt smoothly and have a rich, nutty flavor.
- Serve the meatballs with your favorite sides. Mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice are all good options.
