Meatballs 'n Gravy image

This is just good old comfort food! I started doing this over 30 years ago, because Hubby loves gravy, and he devours meatballs!

Number Of Ingredients 12

THE GRAVY
4 Tbsp butter
8 Tbsp flour
32 oz beef stock
seasonings of your choice: parsley flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, to please your taste buds
THE MEATBALLS
1 lb good quality ground beef
1 small onion, chopped fine
1/3 c dry seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 c milk
1 large egg
salt and pepper to your liking

Steps:

  • 1. I start by mixing together the ingredients for the meatballs in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate, while preparing the gravy.
  • 2. Now for the gravy. In a sauce pan, melt the butter. Add the flour and mix well. Gradually add the stock, stirring so there are no lumps. Add the seasonings of your choice. Over medium heat, bring to a boil, continue stirring. Cook for about 5 minutes until gravy thickens. Remove the gravy from heat, cover and set aside.
  • 3. Back to the meatballs. Form meat mixture into small balls, (I use a small scoop.) and brown in a skillet.
  • 4. When all the meatballs are cooked, drain and place them in a casserole dish, or you can use your slow cooker. Pour the heated gravy over the cooked meatballs. Cover the casserole dish and place in a 200 degree oven until ready to serve, or at least 30 minutes.
  • 5. While the meatballs 'n gravy are in the oven, this gives you time to prepare the wild rice. We just love the Meatballs 'n Gravy served over rice! It's good over egg noodles too!

These meatballs are a great way to use up leftover ground beef. They're also a great freezer meal. I like to make a double batch and freeze half for later.

These meatballs are so easy to make and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can make them ahead of time and just reheat them when I'm ready to serve.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The meatballs are so moist and flavorful, and the gravy is perfect. I usually serve it over mashed potatoes or rice.
