  1. Where I come from, the only acceptable method for the creation of a Meatball Sammich is serving on grilled bread and smashing the meatballs. This meatball hoagie lacks lettuce, tomato, and onion.
     
  2. Well this was my first experience in making Hoagies and we throughly enjoyed , I scaled back for 3 srves and got 16 balls but only needed 4 per roll so had a serve of balls and sauce which will be used in sandwiches for lunch and I seved with recipe #225836 on the side wich was a great complemtnt to the Hogie, Thank you CoffeeB for tor the recipe and lazyme for the recommendation.
     
  3. Awesome sammies and easy, easy, easy! All of us really enjoyed this meal a lot with a nice green salad. I made this as listed, including the mozzarella (of course!) and wouldn't change it next time. Made for Zaar Stars tag game. Thanks CoffeeB! :)
     
  4. Delicious sammy! I choose to use ground turkey instead of the beef and halved the recipe. I also didn't shape the meat into balls. Instead made cylinders, as I don't care for the balls moving around and falling off of the bun. As a result, I didn't heat them in the sauce. Spooned it on top instead and used provolone cheese. Personal preference. :)
     
  5. Well. Well. Well. The. Best. Ever. I followed this exactly, and totally would not change anything. Ok, I quartered it, but still this is the bomb. You don't need my accolades to make this a winner, but still I will say...it is. I love, love, love the use of saltines.Seriously, this is a under utilized addition that really is economical and tastes great! I even kept it *the sandwich in the oven a bit until DH came home, and it only made it more delicious. How wonderful! Thanks so much CB, you made my day! Made for *Everyday is a Holiday* October 2009
