Buttermilk Meatballs image

Not sure exactly where I found this but I do know it was a personal blog online. I modified the original recipe just a little and think these are the BEST! They let just enough of the buttermilk flavor through and are super moist without falling apart. I use these for tomato sauce, sweet and sour, and Swedish meatballs.

Categories     Meat

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 slices crustless white bread, torn into small pieces
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 lb ground beef (I use 80/20 hamburger)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley or 2 teaspoons dried parsley
1 egg
1 teaspoon minced garlic
3/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Combine bread pieces and buttermilk in a bowl. I use my Kitchenaide so just put it in the mixing bowl.
  • Let the bread and buttermilk sit for 10 minutes.
  • Then mash, or mix, to a smooth paste.
  • Add other ingredients and blend well, but be careful NOT to overwork the mixture.
  • I then place the mixture in the freezer for about 15 minutes. This just firms the mixture and makes it easier to handle.
  • Next I form 1 inch balls and deep fry them at 310 degrees for 3-5 minutes. Not sure how they would be baked but please let me know if anyone tries that.
  • Last I usually put them in the crock pot with my sauce for about an hour to insure the middle is done well and to let the flavors blend.
  • So far this recipe has never failed me.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I made these meatballs with almond milk instead of buttermilk. They were still really good!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my meatballs turned out really tough. I think I overcooked them.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made these meatballs with tofu instead of ground beef. They were still really good!

These meatballs were a little too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some more buttermilk next time.

I'm not a big fan of meatballs, but these were really good. The buttermilk made them so moist and flavorful.
