If you have cooked the meat balls & sitting in bowl- make sure you gently put all & even the drippings ooged out of them. Turn down the heat and simmer & cover. Cook gently 30 to 45 minutes or longer or until gravy gets desired thickness you like.
Meat balls can be made from beef chuck, beef sirlon tip, or veal round.
