Italian Style Meatball Subs

Italian Style Meatballs Sub Sandwich Recipe by Ash's In The Kitchen

Quick lunch before hitting the road again! I made a batch of Italian meatballs yesterday when I made the Swedish Meatballs knowing full well that I’d make Meatball Subs as well as Spaghetti & Meatballs!

1 lb lean Ground Beef

1 lb Pork Sausage

¼ cup Onion; finely minced

½ cup Breadcrumbs

¼ cup Whole Milk

1 large Egg

Liberal pinch of Salt & Pepper

½ teaspoon Italian Herbs

¼ teaspoon Basil

Pinch of Fennel Seeds

1 teaspoon Garlic Powder

1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

3 cups Marinara Sauce

1 cup Mozzarella; shredded

½ cup Parmesan; shredded

6 Submarine Sandwich Rolls

  1. In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs and milk. Allow 3 minutes to absorb.
  2. In a large bowl, combine meatball ingredients, including the soaked breadcrumbs and mix by hand until just combined. Make sure not to over mix or the meatballs will become tough.
  3. Preheat cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle in oil. Allow to get hot while you form meatballs to your desired size. It makes about 2 dozen 1 ½” balls.
  4. Place meatballs in skillet 8 at a time, making sure not to crowd the pan. Sear on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side, and then place in a baking dish. Pour marinara over top and sprinkle with cheese.
  5. Preheat oven to 350°F and place meatballs in oven. Cook until the internal temperature of the meatballs reaches 165°F; about 15 minutes.
  6. Serve in a hoagie or over cooked pasta and top with more cheese!
  7. Enjoy!
