Ingredients

1. 2 lb. ground beef
2. ½ lb. ground pork
3. 2 strips pancetta - about 2 oz
4. 1 cup onion
5. 2 eggs
6. 1 Tbsp. Italian seasoning
7. 1 tsp. salt
8. 1 tsp. pepper

Steps

1. Dice the onion and cook it until it is soft; let it cool
2. Dice pancetta and cook it briefly then let it cool.
3. In the stand mixer, toss the meats, onion and species together and mix on speed 2-4 until well mixed. Add the eggs and mix until eggs are absorbed.
4. Make golfball-sized meatballs.
5. Grease a half-sheet with olive oil and cook the meatballs at 425 degrees, turning once.
6. Optionally, finish cooking meatballs in pasta sauce.
7. Notes: 15 minutes total was too long to cook meatballs - they dried out.
8. Salt, pepper, italian seasoning and onion are all estimates.
9. Pancetta is optional - whatever you have on hand is fine.
