Preparation
Make the Meatball
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, minced garlic, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined.
Shape the Meatball
Form the mixture into one large meatball, about 8-10 inches in diameter. Place the meatball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the Meatball
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the meatball for 45-50 minutes, or until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
