    I am a big fan of Tyler's recipes in general, but this one is by far the best! This recipe is so delicious and easy to make. My husband is making this recipe for my special birthday dinner and I am so excited! I actually dream about these meatballs. You must try this one!

    Overall this is a very flavorful recipe and yields a lot of food. If you're like me and enjoy a lot of sauce, then use all the reserved liquid. I added an extra cup and still I added some pasta cooking water to extend the recipe. I had never made meatballs before and loved the end result. I think a bit more bread or less milk would have helped with binding the ingredients. Unless you're making bowling balls, you can easily get a lot more meatballs from the assembled ingredients. I'm contemplating skipping the frying part and just putting them in the oven next time as this was the longest step in the entire process for me.

    I never considered myself to be a person who would like meatballs. However, this recipe could NOT be any better. I have to believe the combination of the sausahe AND the hamburger is what sets this apart r meatball recipes. This dish has become a favoriteof ours, even reaching to our extended family.

    I only made the sauce part of the recipe as I was looking for a good one to use for a chicken parm recipe. The San Marzano tomatoes def made the difference...I found them at my local grocery store...$4.99 for a can but the sauce came out so delicious : This will def be used again in the future.

    Normally I pass on spaghetti but this is fantastic. IT is the only spaghetti my adult children will eat! Depending on how much juice I drain off the tomatos I may have to add more garlic, salt, pepper and basil to the sauce. We find that 14 meatballs is about the right size. Also plan on taking a little more time to prep and cook than stated.

    I gave this 4 stars instead of 3 because I didn't have access to San Marzano Tomatoes and I hear that makes ALL the difference. I thought this was pretty bland. I love fresh herbs so I put in more basil and parsley and also a bit more garlic. I lkie more robust flavors in Italian food. Also, these meatballs would be the size of tennis balls if you only made 10. I got 18 very large meatballs. I love Tyler and will give this another try when I can get some San Marzanos because I am sure it will be better.

    Ridiculously good!!! make sure you get the right Italian white bread..usually looks like the Texas toast type bread but shouldn't be gummy like Wonder bread. These Rock! Also, make sure they are Not too big, because when browning in the pan, then baking they will get too done on the outside without the inside being perfect. they make great meatball sandwiches in the long buns/rolls! The freeze well too! Freeze them in small portions w the sauce for a quick meal. Hope these tips help.

    I have been cooking for over 25 years, and this is truly the best recipe I have found. Not a huge fan of frying anything, but these meatballs are just great. The San Marzano tomatoes are now a curse as I pretty much use them whenever I need tomatoes, more expensive, but worth it. Thank you for the recipe.
    BTW I always add more cheese than called for....ie asiago, romano etc. Sinful but decadent..
