Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 pound Ground pork
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 24 ounces Marinara sauce
- 4 whole Sub rolls
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Shape the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs and set them aside on a plate or baking sheet.
In the bottom of a crock pot, pour about 1/3 of the marinara sauce to create a base layer.
Place the meatballs in the crock pot in a single layer, but it’s fine if they stack slightly. Pour the remaining marinara sauce over the meatballs, ensuring they’re evenly covered.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook the meatballs on low for 6 hours or on high for 4 hours, until the meatballs are fully cooked and tender.
About 15 minutes before the meatballs are done, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the sub rolls in half lengthwise, but don’t cut all the way through—keep them hinged. Spread a thin layer of butter on the inside of each roll and sprinkle with minced garlic.
Place the rolls on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for 5-6 minutes until lightly crisp.
Once the meatballs are done, layer 4-5 meatballs into each toasted roll. Top with a generous spoonful of marinara sauce and sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
Place the assembled subs back in the oven on the baking sheet for 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, serve warm, and enjoy your delicious Crock Pot meatball subs!
