Oven Baked Meatball Subs
Makes 20 meatballs/5 meatball subs
Ingredients
1
lb
ground beef {I used ground sirloin 90/10}
1
lb
ground pork
2
eggs
beaten
1/4
cup
panko seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4
large yellow onion
grated
3
garlic cloves
pressed
salt/cracked black pepper
to taste
5
hoagie rolls
3
cups
Ragu® Chunky Pasta Sauce
2 1/2
cups
mozzarella cheese
shredded
1
tbsp
Italian seasoning
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a large bowl, mix together ground beef and pork, eggs, panko, onion, garlic, and salt and pepper.
Stir until well combined.
Using a large scoop or your hands {my preferred method} roll large palm sized meatballs.
Place in rows on a lined baking sheet. You should have about 20.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until cooked through.
Remove from oven but keep oven on and set aside.
Pour your Ragu® sauce into a large deep skillet and heat over medium low heat.
Add your meatballs to the sauce and stir to combine.
For your hoagie rolls, split down the middle but be sure not to cut all the way through. You want the bread to still be connected on one side.
Add the rolls, cut side up, to a greased 9X13 baking dish.
Using a slotted spoon add 4 meatballs to each hoagie roll.
Add a healthy couple scoops of Ragu® sauce on top.
Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella on top of each hoagie.
Bake for 10-15 minutes until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.
Sprinkle with Italian seasoning sprinkled on top and serve warm, with extra napkins, to your hungry game day party guests.
Notes
I like to set a warm bowl of Ragu® Sauce out for guests to add additional sauce if needed.
