Religion and politics are perfectly OK here, but to discuss meatballs at FR, you could be striding into very dangerous territory.

For my wife, who has Celiac and watches her weight carefully...these are a Godsend. And they are super yummy with linguine and Alfredo sauce.

I once had Indian meatballs made of lamb with an almond in the middle and a yogurt mint sauce. Different, but very tasty.

Probably have to go with the Italian style here. And yes on pasta.

“On top of spaghetti,
“All covered with cheese,
“I lost my poor meatball,
“When somebody sneezed.....”

My aunt made the best spaghetti & meatballs in the world. What a letdown when I was stationed in Naples to discover that meatballs are not native Italian. Moved on to Bolognese sauce. Will try original “Godfather spaghetti al Clemenza” soon.

I make mine with equal parts ground beef and pork - along with breadcrumbs, ricotta, eggs and parmesan cheese. Bake in oven, simmer in home made sauce, make meatball sandwich.
Wash it down with an RC Cola and a moonpie for dessert. Oh, baby.

Spotted owl makes a tasty base for meatballs. Mix with bread crumbs or crackers and season with paprika, basil, a dash of thyme and sea salt and pepper. Bake low and slow on a cookie sheet with a bay leaf under each meatball, turning once after about 9 minutes.

They must be made of meat. Hence the “meat”balls term.
All the rest of pork-balls, chicken-balls, turkey-balls, lamb-balls.
I could go on and on....
