2 tablespoons chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt 1/2 teaspoon
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, eggs, onion, garlic, salt and pepper in a large bowl, mixing lightly but well.
Shape beef mixture into 32-inch meatballs; Place on rack in broiler pan. Bake in a 350°F oven for 18 to 20 minutes.
Chef Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or completely thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of doneness of ground meat.
Meanwhile, combine chili sauce or buffalo sauce, butter and honey in a large bowl; Mix well. Add meatballs to sauce mixture, stirring until well coated.
Serve meatballs with sauce, celery and carrots.
