This is the second installment of my kitchen basics series, and I am sharing my best ever homemade Italian meatball recipe. These meatballs are juicy, light, and the flavor is off the charts. It's all about using the 3 different meats for this meatball recipe and soaking some bread in milk to help lighten the meatball texture. I like to sear these these homemade meatballs in a hot pan to help form a tasty crust before finishing them in some homemade marinara sauce. I hope you guys enjoy my best ever recipe for homemade Italian meatballs and try them for yourself! Let me know what other basic recipes you wanna see and make sure to share! #KeepOnCooking Dessi & Bobby XOXO

Give me some of those meatballs!!!!! So yummy looking!! My nonna would be proud! 👌🏻
Hey Laura, look Bobby you got another star chef's approval thank you so much for telling us that you can cook anything with olive oil I just bought some avocado oil I threw out the remaining castor and veggie oil I had in my kitchen.
NOT ENOUGH EGGS
You can't cook as well as he can!
Well done you had a great approve with Laura....it doesn't get better then that. Spread the love ppl.....nice💕
what Laura doing in here....
how to make this recipe with 5 lb of meat
HOW DO YOU KNOW? SQUISHY BALLS COULD BE A REAL TREAT!!!😨😂😂😂😂
What kind of balls are flat on the sides?
Sorry Bobby, I am confused. Other tube said coconut oil has a higher smoke point...so there's conflicting opinions of the claim. Is there any way we can test them side by side once and for all, 😅? Love your postings on Tubes. Thanks.
I mean ground beef ground pork ground veal
How much of each beef half pound or full pound
Great Video. All your tips and advice are spot on. Nothing is worse than watching and learning a recipe video with bad tips. Some people just want to make videos. You have done your homework over the years and it shows.
Hello fro Western Australia. I could eat meatballs all day. My mom and nonna used to make meatballs like this, but they used bread crumbs and a few eggs. Milk was in short supply which is why the use of eggs. Thank you for the informative video.
I always put the meat mixture on a cutting board, press it gently into an oblong about an inch and a half high, cut it into squares the size that you want the meatballs to be, then shape. This way they’re all the same size and you don’t have to keep digging into the mixture.
No pasta to go along with them?
Mmmmm...I definitely want a taste of his crusty, moist meatballs! I could take a mouthful!
I am trying that recipe this week for my husband! I know he will love them!🌻Thank you!
Jeanne Strauss Can you let me know how they turn out pls ? i cook for my family and currently my grandpa is known for having the best meatballs and i wanna take his spot lol
I am out not a pork eater🤚
Omg Bobby. Will you marry me please. Lol 😂
Good video I might make spaghetti tonight only thing is when you cut the meatballs and half it looked like it had too much breading too much bread crumbs inside and not enough beef, other than that everything is awesome!!!
Good video and lots of information thank you!
YASSSSS these look amazing. I love your videos but I wasn’t sure if I’d see you using bread in your recipe. THANK YOU for using real bread soaked in milk. I’ll be making these tomorrow! 😁
Thanks Bobby for the great recipe. I got to make them tomorrow. I m going to try it.😉😉😉
The most important lesson I learned from this video is the value of the splatterguard!
Shiny ass forehead tho
Great job, good tips
yummm! but I neeeeed to not watch your cooking videos when I'm fasting! *saves to watch later*
I really like your knives, what kind are they?
Thanks Babby for always giving tips on your recipes! I made meatballs and chicken wings with your recipes and they were super delicious and tasty😘🔥
Where's the sauce recipe?
Veal is baby cows. You should be ashamed!
Is it as good as subways meatballs?
Italian Meatballs - where is the garlic and parsley ???
This is an olive oil commercial.
I'm sure the answer is below, but can you make these ahead and store in the freezer?
Yo this man can cook. He's not just mixing stuff together you can literally see he knows what he's doing. Amazing
the only guy on the net that knows how to make real Italian meatballs..
Love those meatballs..gotta try them...BTW, my Mom taught me the breadcrumb in milk trick for moist meatloaf...works great (and she’s not Italian!) ☺️💕
Bobby, any recipe without veal, without pork, haven't eaten either of these for years. Please and thx 😁
Can you actually make a video of the turkey meatballs like you did with these meatballs please
See Gordon Ramsey that's how make the best meat balls u should really start watching real chefs in the kitchen instead of always complaining LoL ha E-pic.)
I just made the softest and tastiest meatballs ever, thanks to Bobby!!!
Awesome will be trying this recipe thanks 😃
Awesome, thank you Bobby!
Made those today. I did not have ground beef, pork, and veal. I used venison meat. They came out delicious! The best meatballs I ever made:)) And your marinara sauce recipe is the best! You're awesome! Thanks so much for all your great videos:))
i call shenanigans dude. try deep frying in olive oil...call the fire dept before you start cooking.
The main reason I don't deep fry with olive oil is that it costs about $25 per gallon.
Neither do us italians, it s just stupid and waste of money
I watched your video on the meatballs to see if your recipe was any different than mine..but actually its just about the same as mine. I do one other recipe that just uses Italian sausage and beef. Your meatballs look superlicious!
Great recipe.. I will have my kitchen staff order all of the ingredients from New York delis and prepare this meal for me in California. Thanks-
Invite me
Another vulgar recipe. Now all american citizens are italians, la mamma, la nonna. Ridiculous.
Timothy, meatballs are an American made dish... It's a sad day when you don't even know your own culture.
What meat do you recommend if you keep a Kosher diet?
Looks awesome 👏🏻 !!!
you need a larger bowl to mix that up in.
This recipe was delicious!
Meatballs look amazing! Going shopping tomorrow to make my own
Just wanted to say how I appreciate your videos! You are a great teacher! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I’m eating spaghetti right now but I wish I had meatballs!
Looks👀 so so Delicious 😋👌🙏
New frames need analyzing; click Analyze.
I have moral problems with veal and the way it is produced.
He needs to use a much bigger bowl when mixing, was painful to watch
Sorry but I don't work in grams. Meatball are on point but I don't have time for conversion tables.
i'll try these minus the egg and bread
So, I followed your recipe last night except no veal (could not find) and garlic powder (I am allergic). This was fantastic. tks
@Spiffy Ify Tks for the info, but I am kinda picky about where I shop. I go to an old fashioned butcher who has all organic beef, including grass-fed. I turns out that they have veal in the frozen section.
Jeff Childs if you look for a meatloaf mix at the supermarket it usually comes with 1/2 of each already put together in a pack
