Ingredients
1lb.Ground Beef
1lb.Ground Pork
2Eggs
1/4cupHeavy Cream
1/2cupCrushed Pork Rinds
2tspSalt
2tspBlack Pepper
1.5tspOnion Powder
1.5tspGarlic Powder
2tsp.Dried Parsley
2tspItalian Seasoning
1tsp.Red Pepper Flakesif extra spice is desired
Instructions
In a bowl, combine the beef and the pork. Add in the seasonings and crushed pork rinds. Then add in the two eggs and heavy cream.
Mix well with your hands until the mixture is well blended.
Preheat your broiler. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy clean up. Use a tablespoon to make 1" size meatballs. I highly recommend a smaller meatball so they don't dry out but still get a nice crispier crust (see blog post notes above). Roll them all out and place them next to each other (I got around 56 meatballs).
Bake for 12-15 minutes in the broiler until the internal temperature reaches 165. Let them cool and store in a container, use them in soups or pastas, or eat them as is.
Notes
Freeze the meatballs in a freezer safe bag for up to 3 months.
