Best meatballs ever! I always double and freeze the leftovers for easy week night dinners. I have been making these since my daughter was a toddler - they are great for little ones! I don't change a thing about the recipe other than most of the time I use all ground sirloin.

I followed this recipe almost exactly, except I left out the spinach and substituted panko for regular breadcrumbs, and the results were delicious. I would suggest, however, to leave off the breadcrumb coating if you are pairing them with polenta. (That may be a personal preference, but I think the soft texture actually lends itself more to the soft polenta. Outer coating did go well with spaghetti though! Thanks Alton!

Possibly the best meatballs I've ever made. The were fantastic! I don't care for lamb so I made them with equal parts ground pork and ground beef. I was a little leery about the spinach, but it was great. Alton has done it again. Delicious.

I made these with organic ground turkey and organic buffalo. So very good! I may have to whip another batch up tomorrow! Thanks Alton for another delicious recipe!

Please don't think I'm totally crazy. Made some changes to this recipe because I REALLY wanted spaghetti and meatballs for dinner and I REALLY didn't want to go to the grocers. So: Used 1.5 lbs 80:20 ground beef and 1.5 lbs sweet Italian sausage. Didn't have any spinach so I used 1/3 of a can of southern style seasoned mixed greens. (Yeah, I know, crazy!
I admit they weren't classic Italian, but they were the best meatballs I have ever eaten. Moist, savory, wonderful. This will be my "go to" meatball recipe from now on. Some day I might even try it like it was actually written! Ha!

My son was craving meatballs. we'd never made them before, but we found this recipe and followed it pretty much to the letter, except for the following:
we only used 1/b of ground beef, so we cut everything else back to 2/3 except the egg.
we also didn't have red pepper flakes, so we used freshly ground black pepper.
We used fresh spinach... about 1/2 cup. the meatballs came out perfectly and were very delicious served with spaghetti and marinara sauce. I will definitely double the ingredients next time so we can freeze some. thanks for the great recipe!!!

I love this recipe. They aren't greasy and they brown nicely in the mini muffin pan. It is so simple and easy to clean up after cooking. I have used different meat combos and they have all been good. I've never had a problem with this recipe, even when I substitute ingredients. I double the recipe and freeze the extras for a quick meal.
