3 Tablespoons Butter
5 cloves Fresh Garlic, Minced
1 whole Onion, Chopped
1 bunch Fresh Parsley, Chopped
1- 1/2 pound Ground Chuck
1- 1/2 pound Ground Pork
1 cup Seasoned Bread Crumbs

1
Saute the fresh garlic and onion in the butter until onion is tender.

Add the chopped parsley and saute for a minute.
3
Turn off the heat and set aside.
4
In a large bowl, combine the ground chuck, pork, bread crumbs, eggs, salt, pepper, cheese, and garlic powder.
5
Add the sauteed onion mixture and mix everything together by hand.
6
In a deep skillet, heat about 3 inches of oil.
7
(I actually use my deep fryer for this part.
8
That way I can fry about a dozen meatballs at once.)
9
I use a medium-sized cookie scoop so that the balls are uniform.
10
Scoop the mixture into the hot oil frying for about 3-4 minutes a side.
11
The meatballs will be a nice dark golden brown color.
12
Let them drain on a paper towel after you pull them out.
13
And repeat with the remaining meat mixture.

You can add them to a sauce or make meatball sandwiches with them.
