How To Make meatballs and gravy

  • 1
    ** You can cook this in either a crock pot, or in the oven**
  • 2
    If you're using fresh mushrooms, saute mushrooms in butter with garlic and pepper. If you're using canned, move to next step.
  • 3
    In a medium bowl, combine all but meatballs and mushrooms until well combined. Fold in mushrooms/butter/garlic. (If using canned, wait until next step to add butter)
  • 4
    Pour meatballs into either a crock pot or a large baking pan. Pour gravy mixture over the meatballs and stir. Cut up butter and dot over the top.
  • 5
    (For baking pan) Bake for 2 hours at 325, stirring occasionally. (For Crockpot) Cook on low for 4-6 hours, stirring occasionally.
  • 6
    Serve over rice or egg noodles. (When I serve it over egg noodles, I add butter and grated parmesan cheese to them before topping with the meatballs & gravy)
