Mama Lucia's Italian-style meatballs.
(fully cooked and frozen)
12oz bag on sale for only $1.67 .

I bought a bag this morning and just tried
a couple to see how they taste.

YUM!

I'm heating up another 2 to try on buttered toast.

I'll probably buy a couple more bags when I go back
tomorrow for pork butt (0.99/lb)

Look for coupons for 1.50 off one, they are pretty regular in the newspaper
pull outs where I am, maybe where you are too. Dh really likes them, so I do
keep them on hand for a quick meal.

Thanks Cheri. I'll watch for the coupons. I did buy one more

I have had some pretty good frozen meatballs. They are very handy to have and you get to pick the exact amount you need.

I make a pretty good meatball too. In my awesome opinion you have to use breadcrumbs for a tender meatball. Some people refuse to do that. Mostly they're making hamburgers in the shape of balls, not real meatballs.

A few weeks ago there was coupon in the meat section at Kroger
for their freshly made meatballs. I used the coupon, of course,
and baked them a few days later. They were quite good tasting but
you had to use a steak knife to cut them they were sooooooo tough;
no breadcrumbs at all in the mixture.

Amazing how a few bread crumbs or even a torn up piece of white
bread added to the meat mixture can make a difference in the
texture.

Mama mia, biting into a tough meatball is not pleasant!

It sounds overworked to me, not the fault of no breadcrumbs.

I like to work that hamburger over until it turns pasty. I want a smooth, dense, yet tender, meatball. The Japanese are experts at working hamburger to a pasty goo.

The inverse is worse: people who put bread crumbs in hamburgers.

Hey... I resent that. I put about a tablespoon of dry bread crumbs in
with a pound of regular hamburger. It is not really filler. It just
helps to retain some of the flavour.

Where does the flavor go? A gently patted (and not overcooked) burger of
ground chuck has plenty of flavor.

Right. If pure beef is good enough for McDonalds, its good enough for me.

Meatballs get stale Italian bread that was soaked in water. Aunt Angies
recipe lives!

Japanese okazuya hamburgers tend to have a lot of bread in it. Luckily, they're kind of small.

Burger shaped individual meat loaves (usually contains egg too),
served in a bun. Yuck.

WTF would a normal human want to eat factory mystery meat? It's dead
easy to grind a five pound roast with veggies, season and make
meat-a-balles. The thought of factory frozen mystery meat balls gives
me the shivers, very likely contains someone the mafia offed and Guido
couldn't bother with C-Menta shooze

Meatballs on buttered toast... nothing else on the toast?
