Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon parsley (fresh or dried)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
  • 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup onion (thinly sliced)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 5 tablespoons flour
  • 3 cups beef stock
Instructions

  1. In a large bowl combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, onion powder, parsley,1 teaspoon of garlic powder, paprika and the ground mustard.  Mix until fully combined.

  2. Portion the meat into 1 1/2" portions and roll into meatballs.  Approximately 25 meatballs.

  3. In a large skillet over medium heat begin browning the meatballs on all sides.  Remove from the pan. Discard all but approximately 2 tablespoons of the grease from the pan. 

  4. Now add in the butter and onions. Sauté until lightly browned and tender. Add the garlic to the pan and sauté for 30 seconds.

  5. Add the flour to the pan, whisking to make the roux. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to remove the brown bits. Cook for 1 minute, whisking regularly.

  6. Pour in the beef stock, whisking to prevent clumping. Turn the heat to low and maintain a simmer. Place the meatballs back in the pan. Season with the remaining garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce.  Continue cooking for 8-10 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through and the gravy has thickened. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.  Enjoy!
