HOW TO MAKE IT!
Meatballs:
Melt the butter and sauté the onion, garlic salt and pepper until veggies are soft.
Mix in the milk and Worcestershire sauce and bring it down to a simmer.
Put the bread crumbs in a bowl and add the sauce and veggies into the bowl.
Put the pork, beef,and eggs into the bowl and squish together with your hands (best way to get it all mixed).
Grease down a baking sheet.
Start making the meatballs in 1-inch balls (I like to use a small the small cookie scoopers).
Pre heat the oven to 400.
While the oven is pre heating put the baking sheet with meatballs in the freezer for 20 mins (cover it with some plastic wrap).
Bake for 25-30 minutes (I like them a little crisp on the bottoms)
Gravy:
Melt the butter and add the flour stirring it until its thick.
Pour in the beef broth and stir together and then add the Worcestershire sauce and lower to a simmer for about 2 minutes.
Add in the heavy whipping cream, salt & pepper stirring until thickened and turn the temp up a little.
I love them on mashed potatoes but also so dang good with some penne pasta!
