Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound ground beef
1 pound ground pork
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 large egg
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups beef broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, parsley, egg, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well-combined but don’t overmix.
Using your hands, shape the mixture into meatballs, about 1-inch in diameter.
For added flavor, brown the meatballs in a skillet over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes until golden brown (optional).
Place the meatballs in the slow cooker, stacking them slightly but avoiding overcrowding.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the beef broth, heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and flour until well combined.
Pour the sauce over the meatballs in the crockpot, ensuring they are well coated.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the meatballs are cooked through and tender.
Before serving, taste the sauce and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
