Ingredients

    Sauce:
    3 quarts tomato sauce
    2 cups chopped onions
    3 garlic cloves, minced
    3 bay leaves
    1 T. basil
    2-1/2 tsp. oregano
    2 T. sugar
    3/4 tsp. salt
    1-1/2 tsp. pepper
    1 tsp. baking soda, if the sauce is too tart

    Meatballs:
    3 lbs. ground venison
    4 eggs, lightly beaten
    2 cups soft bread crumbs
    1-1/2 cups milk
    1 cup Parmesan cheese
    2 large garlic cloves, minces
    1 T. salt
    1/2 tsp. pepper

Directions

For Meatballs, combine all meatball ingredients. Form into 1" meatballs. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet or sheets. Bake at 400 for 15 to 20 minutes or until cooked through.
For sauce, In a large kettle, combine all sauce ingredients. Bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer. When meatballs are cooked add them to the sauce. Continue to simmer for another hour. I like to put them in the crock pot and cook on low for several hours. Makes about 20 cups of sauce.
