I remember several people giving you their recipes on here. There are 1000's of recipes on the internet. There are many options because there is no one right way....you know what you like so pick one with ingredients that sound good to you. They are all going to have some things in common and then there is just the matter of what you prefer...like anything else. What is the worst that could happen? Maybe you won't like the recipe you chose so will make a different one next time. Just pick one and make changes as you see necessary. Just mix what sounds good to you and roll in a ball....it isn't as complicated as you are making it.

I use pork and veal, some parmesan, the panade as mentioned above, garlic, onion, fennel seed, some oregano and a bit of parsley. They are pretty wet when they're ready to go on the bbq. Keep it simple. As long as you keep the fat content high enough, there's enough moisture and you don't overcook them, meatballs are pretty hard to get wrong.
Here's a pic pre-cook.

We did a new recipe today -- slow roasted Coho salmon over an Alsatian-style bed of sauted cabbage, onion, bacon and dill. It was delicious! https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/...ll-recipe.html

I thought you made meatballs a week or two ago?

any bacon dish is always lovely - although I guess pancetta takes second place!

sigh Ill end up just doing full beef because I lack ground turkey for now. Last year I often bought beef meatballs at WF. For the breadcrumbs Ill grate a sourdough baguette that I got on Saturday because we never ate it.
