Tips:
- Choose the right meatballs: For the best results, use a combination of ground beef and pork. This will give the meatballs a juicy and flavorful texture.
- Don't overmix the meatball mixture: Overmixing will make the meatballs tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Brown the meatballs before slow-cooking: This will help to develop their flavor and prevent them from becoming dry.
- Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what will really make your meatballs shine. Choose a sauce that is sweet, pungent, and flavorful.
- Cook the meatballs on low heat: This will help to keep them moist and prevent them from overcooking.
- Serve the meatballs over rice or noodles: This is a classic way to serve meatballs, and it's always a crowd-pleaser.
