Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (8 ounces) block mozzarella cheese
- 1lb ground beef
- 1lb spicy Italian sausage
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup chopped parsley
- 1 jar spaghetti sauce
Instructions
- Cut the mozzarella cheese into ¾ inch cubes. In a large bowl, using your hands combine ground beef, Italian sausage, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, eggs, milk, and parsley.
- Roll the meat mixture into golf ball sized balls and place a cube of the mozzarella cheese into the center and pull the edges of the meatball around it until it’s a ball again. Roll with your hands to seal tightly.
- Pour a thin layer of the pasta sauce into the bottom of the slow cooker. Place a layer of the meatballs on top of the sauce. Pour the remaining sauce over the meatballs. Cover and cook on high for 2 to 2 ½ hours or until fully cooked (the internal temperature has reached 160 degrees F).
