GRILLED ITALIAN MEATBALLS
I started making these in the Spring of 2006 when we moved to a new house and I found a meat market with the best Italian sausage I have ever had. The sausage I use already has red and green bell peppers and diced onions in it. It is the only stuff I buy now. I cook on a charcoal grill, and it really adds to the overall flavor in a way gas just could not. Prep time does not include the time it takes for charcoal to ash over. The lid should be closed the whole time unless turning or moving the meatballs.

Steps:
- Combine all ingredients except pasta sauce in a large mixing bowl and mix thoroughly.
- If using charcoal- build your fire and make it low-medium heat, about 225-250°F Coat the grates with oil or non-stick spray.
- Shape mixture into balls slightly smaller than a baseball, but bigger than a golf ball and then set them aside. UPDATE: I started using a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the mixture and it makes the meatballs just the right size.
- Pour half of the sauce in a grill (oven) safe stock pot or roasting pan that will be large enough to hold all the meatballs. Place the pot/pan on the grill away from the direct heat when the fire is ready.
- When the grill is ready place the meatballs directly over the heat and sear on both the top and bottom for 3-5 minutes per side.
- When you are done searing the meatballs, place them away from the direct heat (I have a top rack on my grill and place them here).
- Let them cook for 5-8 more minutes or until the meatballs are firm, but not fully cooked and then place all the meatballs in the pot/pan and place that directly over the heat source.
- Cook for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 155-160 degrees F (you could also cut a meatball in half to make sure that the meat is no longer pink in the middle).

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium. Combine the beef, sausage, garlic, egg, breadcrumbs, parmesan, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl; mix with your hands. Form into twelve 1 1/2-inch meatballs.
- Toss the bell peppers and scallions with the olive oil in another large bowl; season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Oil the grill grates and arrange the meatballs, peppers and scallions on the grill. Cover and grill the vegetables, turning once, until lightly charred and tender, 2 to 3 minutes for the scallions, 5 to 7 minutes for the peppers. Grill the meatballs, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Toast the rolls cut-side down on the grill.
- Cut the scallions into pieces. Spread 2 tablespoons ricotta on the bottom half of each roll. Top with the meatballs, scallions and peppers.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix together the meat, eggs, cheese, parsley, oregano, basil, onion, bread crumbs, and garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup of the water. Knead the water into the meat mixture with your hands. Knead and form meatballs into about 1 1/2-inch balls with a 2-ounce scoop (see Chef's Note) or roll into balls with your hands.
- VAC-PACKED COOKING METHOD: Seal the meatballs with just a teaspoon of extra-virgin olive oil and cook them in 130°F water for 35 minutes.
- OLD-WORLD COOKING METHOD: Place the meatballs in a large saucepan or skillet on the stove (use 2 pans if they don't all fit in a single pan), add 1/2 cup of the water over them (1/2 cup water to each pan if using 2 pans), and cover. Steam the meatballs over medium heat for about 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter and refrigerate until you're ready to grill them.
- Turn a gas grill to high or ignite charcoal. When the grill is hot, for both gas and charcoal grills, clean your grill rack. Decrease the temperature to medium-high (on a gas grill only), and brush or wipe a little olive oil on the grill rack.
- In batches, grill the meatballs in a cast-iron pan or plancha on the grill until they're well-browned all the way around, 4 minutes total for the vac-packed meatballs and about 6 minutes total for the pan-cooked meatballs. Remove from the heat and reserve.
- Fill a large pot with about 5 quarts of water, add the kosher salt, and bring to a boil over high heat on your stove. Add the pasta and cook until just al dente, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water.
- Spread the pasta on a baking sheet and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, so it won't stick together.
- Lightly oil a long, flat grill basket or spritz with nonstick cooking spray. With tongs, add half the pasta to the basket, arranging it in a thin even layer. (If you have two grill baskets, cook both batches of pasta at once.) Place the basket on a rack over hot coals and turn frequently, until the pasta turns a golden color. You'll hear it crackling during grilling.
- Empty the grill basket into a large heat-proof bowl. Toss the pasta with 1 to 2 cups of Grilled Tomato Sauce. If it needs some moisture, add 1/4 cup of the reserved pasta water and toss again. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and 2 tablespoons of the pecorino cheese. Toss. Transfer to a serving bowl, top with the remaining pecorino cheese, and serve immediately.
