Meatballs are easy and fun to make from scratch. This recipe is very simple and uses just a few ingredients to create classic homemade meatballs. They're perfect for all of your favorite recipes, including spaghetti and meatballs, sandwiches, soups, and game-day snacks.

In a basic meatball, the egg and breadcrumbs act as a binder that holds the ground beef together. The onion, salt, and pepper add just enough flavor, so they'll work in a variety of dishes. You can also add other herbs and seasonings or use different types of ground meat. To avoid tough, chewy meatballs, do not overmix the meat, pack the meatballs too tightly, or use meat that's too lean.

The best part is that these meatballs freeze beautifully after they're baked. They can replace store-bought frozen meatballs in any recipe and save your family money. Make as many batches as you want by scaling up the recipe, then keep them on hand in the freezer for easy meal prep any time.

"These meatballs were easy to prepare, had great flavor, and used basic ingredients many people have on hand. We enjoyed them in pasta sauce over spaghetti. They would be great in sweet and sour or barbecue sauce as an appetizer or main dish, or in marinara sauce for sandwiches." —Diana Rattray

Tips

  • Make sure the meatballs are the same size so they all cook evenly.
  • A standard meatball is 1 inch in diameter, which is a good size for most uses. To be more precise, weigh the meat on a kitchen scale; each meatball should be about 1 ounce or between 26 and 30 grams.
  • Make them a little larger if serving the meatballs alone (e.g., as an appetizer) or smaller for bite-sized meatballs in soup.
  • You can also use a cookie or ice-cream scoop to get uniform meatballs.

How to Store and Freeze Meatballs

  • Let the meatballs cool, then store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • To freeze cooked meatballs, chill in the fridge, then place them on a cookie sheet and freeze solid. Pack meatballs into freezer containers or zipper bags, label and date, and freeze up to a year. You can use them straight out of the freezer in many recipes or thaw them in the fridge overnight first.

Recipe Variations

  • Make this recipe with ground pork, chicken, or turkey, or a combination of any of those meats. With leaner meats, you'll likely have to reduce the cooking time.
  • If you prefer a bit more flavor, add some dried herbs: Basil, oregano, thyme, and/or marjoram are all good choices. Minced garlic and scallions are great additions as well.
  • Broiled meatballs are also quick (about 10 minutes) and turn out crispy and browned.
  • When using right away, another option is to let the raw meatballs simmer in a gravy or sauce. Many recipes brown them in the skillet first.
