GRANDMA'S SPAGHETTI AND MEATBALLS
My father's mother (grandma anderson) gave me my very own cookbook of the families recipes when I graduated high school. And I was tickled pink when I saw I had received the famous Spaghetti and meatballs recipe. I love this dish more than any other dish, on my father's side of the family. And, it tastes better the next day,after...

Steps:
- 1. Meat balls..... In a Large bowl, add all ingredients together MINUS the flour. Start cooking your bacon, on a stove top, med. heat untill bacon is crispy, save grease, you will need this to cook your meatballs in. **I use my hands to mix the ingredients evenly,and roll into balls, the size of golf balls, and roll in flour. ** Add to bacon grease and cook till brown on all sides.
- 2. While cooking meatballs, start your sauce. In a large boiling pan, bring All ingredients together, adding cooked bacon as well **chop up bacon into chunks** and add to the sauce. Simmer on low-med for about 45 to an hour, stirring continuously.Add meatballs to sauce once all browned. the meatballs with soak in all the juices.
- 3. Boil 16-18oz of spaghetti noodles. follow package directions. drain noodles once done,plate and serve. I hope you will find my grandmother Anderson's Spaghetti and meatballs your new favorite spaghetti from here on out. ** Double the sauce if you like more sauce than meatballs**, Always better to have more sauce than not enough, incase you really love it. My kids LOVE this recipe, they wont eat any other kind of spaghetti, When I made this for the first time for my husband, I was so neverous, but, he took one bite, and got up from the table and came over and gave me a big kiss, and said, " it is different, but i like it, it kinda taste's like a sweet BBQ sauce" and he's been hooked ever since. Like I said, it does taste alittle different at first, but DON'T give up on it, Its even better the next day :) Enjoy~ and P.S. Don't forget the garlic bread :D

[email protected]This recipe is a waste of time and money. The meatballs were tasteless and the sauce was watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

[email protected]This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I added some garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning to the meatballs, and I also added some crushed tomatoes and red pepper flakes to the sauce. It was much better after I made those changes.
