Instructions
- In a large bowl, add the ground beef, pork, eggs, breadcrumbs, milk onion, parsley, salt, pepper and half of the garlic powder.

- In a large lipped skillet, heat a little oil over medium high heat and add the meatballs.
- Working in batches, pan fry the meatballs on all sides until they are golden brown. When done, remove them from the pan and set them aside.
- Add the butter and flour to the same pan that you fried the meatballs in and whisk them together for about 3 minutes.
- lowly whisk in the beef broth, heavy cream and sour cream.
- Add the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper and the rest of the garlic powder and whisk everything together until it’s nice and smooth.
- Add the meatballs back into the pan and cover them in sauce. Turn the heat down to low and let the meatballs simmer in the sauce for about 5 minutes.
- Garnish with more parsley, serve over mashed potatoes and enjoy!
