I had big, big visions of these subs when I made them two months ago. Yes, these have just been hanging out on my computer for two months.

I wanted them to be huge. Big, spicy and juicy meatballs stuffed with burrata and then all stuffed into a fresh sourdough baguette and layered with this homemade marinara sauce and a sprinkle of parmesan.

The bread?

It was good, but just so not what I dreamed up in my head. I burned the heck out of the top of one sandwich. I swear I watch the broiler like a hawk for ten minutes and nothing. It was broiling SO slow, but then I walk away for thirty seconds and BAM all the sudden it’s black.

Honestly, this happens to me all the time.

Not joking, I just burn things. Things like good food and my hands. My mom says I am going to have the ugliest hands when I get older.

Well, thanks mom!

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place the burrata cheese in the freezer for 15 minutes. Remove and chop about 15 cheese cubes and slice the remaining cheese into slices. Set aside
  • In the meantime make the meat mixture. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place beef, egg, garlic, worcestershire, parmesan, basil, parsley, salt, pepper, crushed red pepper, and bread crumbs into a large mixing bowl, stirring until just combined. Take 1/4 cup meat mixture and roll into a ball. Press into center of the ball with your thumb to make room for the cheese. Place cheese in middle, then with hands enclose the cheese with the meat, making sure the cheese is completely covered. Place meatballs onto a greased baking sheet and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until cooked through. During the last 10 minutes throw the sub rolls into the oven and toast.
  • To assemble the subs, Spoon a small amount [pasta sauce | https://www.halfbakedharvest.com/crockpot-brown-butter-marinara-sauce/] into each split baguette. Fill each with meatballs and top with more sauce. Finish with slices of provolone and broil on high for 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese has melted and is bubbling. Top with more marinara if desired, fresh basil, cracked black pepper and freshly grated Parmesan. Serve immediately.

  1. Spicy sausage is in the ingredients but not in the instructions. What is this used for? Are we supposed to get ground spicy sausage and mix it with the ground beef?

    1. Hi Marie,
      You are mixing that with the beef in step 3:) Please let me know if you have any other questions, I hope you love this recipe! xx

    1. Hi Christine,
