Recipe Introduction


Meatball subs are a great crock pot item for tailgates. There is some prep time involved, but they are always a big hit.




List of Ingredients




2-3 lbs ground beef
1 can of tomato paste
Italian seasonings (parsley, basil, rosemary, oregano)
Salt, pepper & garlic
Bread crumbs
1 egg
3-5 cans of tomato sauce or pizza sauce
Shredded mozzarella cheese
Italian rolls (don't skimp on the rolls!)



Recipe



In a large bowl, beat the egg and add the ground beef, seasonings, tomato paste and some bread crumbs.

Mix all ingredients together. Add more seasonings and bread crumbs if needed.

Form meatballs and place them in a large saucepan. Don't make them too big, you want them bite-sized.

Cook the meatballs slowly, turning frequently so they brown evenly.

While the meatballs cook, pour the tomato sauce or pizza sauce into a crock pot or other large pot. If you're using tomato sauce you'll need to add Italian seasonings and salt, pepper & garlic. Use enough sauce to cover the meatballs, no exact amount is necessary. Begin heating the sauce.

When the meatballs are done, place them in the sauce.

After the sauce is hot, serve on rolls with shredded mozzarella.
