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 recipe #26947, 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!

Steps:
- 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.
FAMOUS MEATBALLS
These meatballs are a favorite for any occasion. I made 14 pounds of meatballs for my sister's graduation party and I only had 1 medium container left over. My mother made sloppy joes and needless to say they had a lot left over because everyone loved these meatballs. Guaranteed favorite!

Steps:
- Place all the above ingredients, except parsley, marinara, and olive oil, in a medium sized bowl and mix thoroughly by hand until they are completely combined and the mixture is uniformly firm.
- Coat your hands in olive oil, and using your hands form into balls slightly larger than a golf ball.
- Drop the meatballs into the marinara sauce and add some water so that the sauce can reduce and simmer. Let cook for about 10 minutes on one side.
- Turn them over, add some more water and cook for another 10 minutes, covering in the sauce with a spoon as they simmer.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Garnish with chopped parsley, salt and pepper, more shaved parmegiano reggiano and a drizzle of olive oil.
Tips:
- Use a combination of ground meats for the best flavor. Ground beef, pork, and veal are all good choices.
- Don't overwork the meat mixture. Overworking will make the meatballs tough.
- Season the meatball mixture well. Use a variety of spices and herbs, such as garlic, onion, parsley, and oregano.
- Be sure to chill the meatball mixture before cooking. This will help the meatballs hold their shape.
- Bake the meatballs in a hot oven. This will help them brown and cook evenly.
- Serve the meatballs with your favorite sauce. Marinara sauce, spaghetti sauce, or even a simple tomato sauce are all good choices.
