12 ounces ground beef and 4 ounces ground pork or 1 pound ground beef
4 ounces Parmesan cheese
1 egg (lightly beaten)
1 cup bread crumbs
1 salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 cup minced onion
1/8 cup chopped fresh parsley
Mix ingredients thoroughly by hand or with kitchen aid with paddle attachment.
Roll into balls, 2-3 ounces each.
Bake at 250 degrees F until internal temperature is 165 degrees F (about 45 minutes).
Another option is to pan fry in olive oil for a crispier, more browned exterior.
