BBQ meatball subs are warm, cheesy, filling, and perfect for casual dinners, weekend lunches, or game-night meals. 

Ingredients

  • 500 g ground beef
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper
  • ¾ cup BBQ sauce
  • 4 sub rolls
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
  • ½ onion (sliced)
  • Fresh parsley

Instructions 

  • Mix beef, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Shape the mixture into small meatballs.
  • Bake or pan-cook until completely done.
  • Coat the cooked meatballs with BBQ sauce.
  • Slice the sub rolls without cutting completely through.
  • Add meatballs to each roll.
  • Sprinkle mozzarella over the top.
  • Bake until the cheese melts.
  • Finish with parsley or sliced onion.
