Ready In
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion in the melted butter until tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Place bread cubes in a bowl; pour 1/2 cup evaporated milk over bread cubes. Set aside until bread cubes absorb milk.
- Mix ground beef, ground pork, cooked onion, bread cube mixture, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, nutmeg, allspice, salt, lemon pepper, and ground black pepper together in a large bowl. Form mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs.
- Heat olive oil in the same skillet used for onion over medium-high heat; cook meatballs in the hot oil, turning with tongs, until all sides are browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Pour in beef stock and simmer until meatballs are cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer meatballs to a serving bowl, reserving liquid in the skillet.
- Remove 1 cup beef stock from skillet; whisk flour into the 1 cup stock until smooth. Pour flour mixture back into skillet, whisking until mixture is smooth. Gradually whisk remaining evaporated milk and sherry into beef stock mixture. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until gravy is warmed and smooth, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour gravy over meatballs to serve.

I used heavy cream instead of the evaporated milk, left out the wine and used all ground beef. It was delicious!

I'd give it 3 stars, my husband would give it 5 so 4 is a compromise. My 7 yr old dipped them in ketchup and liked them. I don't think I'll make them again, the flavor just wasn't my preference.

Meatballs we're delicious, gravy wouldn't thicken. A little adjustment next time on gravy. Would recommend very tasteful

Made the sauce only; Good flavor but the consistency was much thinner than expected... even by boiling it longer to try to cook down while stirring. Needed to add corn starch to thicken
