I guess I should have read the reviews more closely as I would have changed a few things about the meatballs or left them out all together. The sauce was great though and I will make that again. However, like a few other people mentioned I feel like I've seen these episodes a million times. Doesn't seem to be enough new ones coming out. MHO

I think this is a good base for meatballs and spaghetti. I was not impressed by the taste of the meatballs, maybe it was the nutmeg. I felt the taste was off and missing that zing. But they were very moist. As for the sauce I added some ingredients after reading some other reviews and it turned out well. I like to watch Ina but I have not found one of her recipes that I would rate a 5..I will keep looking and trying them out.

Although the meatballs weren't my favorite, the sauce was out of this world!!! I thought it was close to the best I've ever tasted!

The BEST meatballs I have ever made. I added a few fresh herbs to the sauce, but my company just loved the whole meal.

I have been cooking homemade spaghetti and meatballs for a long time. This recipe tops them all. My family loved it and the meatballs just melt in your mouth. Delicious!!!

I have been making the Rao's sauce and meatballs for a few years, but adding the wine and a few other herbs gave this a wonderful flavor to an old friend.

Up to now I've been using a sauce recipe passed down from the Italian side of the family. I thought I'd try something different. Other than adding garlic to the meatballs, I followed the recipe. The meatballs were moist and tender. I made delicious subs with the leftovers. I'm looking forward to making this again!
