Ingredients

  • s3/4 pound ground pork
  • 3/4 pound Italian pork sausage, casings removed
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 6 garlic cloves, chopped, divided
  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 (20-ounce) can tomato puree
  • 1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • Soft rolls, split horizontally
  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Shaved pecorino

Directions

Combine the ground pork and pork sausage, red pepper flakes, 2 cloves of the chopped garlic, panko, grated cheese, eggs, parsley, kosher salt and black pepper, to taste, in large bowl. Form into 2-inch-meatballs and set aside on a platter.

Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook until brown on all sides. Transfer to plate.

Meanwhile, start the sauce. Add the 2 tablespoons of the remaining olive oil to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, and the remaining garlic. Saute until the onion begins to brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Season the onions with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the tomato puree and the tomatoes and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, stir in the meatballs and simmer the sauce, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes.

To serve, put a meat ball on the bottom of each roll and drizzle lightly with some sauce. Top with a basil leaf and some shaved pecorino. Cover with the roll tops and transfer to a platter. Serve warm.

    Absolutely, Positively the best meatballs that I have ever made...and that is coming from a 100% Italian mom and wife!! I must say my homemade sauce added to this wonderful recipe....BUT this goes without saying Pat and Gina Neeley you are terrific chefs and I truly enjoy watching your show as well!

    The Neelys are one of my favorite cooks behind Guy. These Meetball Sliders are awesome. These are the best tasting meatballs!!!! I do not use the Neely's sauce, because I use my own, but I imagine that is also wonderful as well. Thanks Neelys!!!!
