    Simpsons viewer here. I never really got into South Park until about 10
    years ago when I dated someone who liked it a lot. I found their earlier episodes to be a lot more sophomoric than the Simpsons, or even 1990s Beavis and Butthead, but not near as bad as most of Seth McFarland's stuff.

    I do watch SP now, though.

    Title: Dirty Dave's Spicy Meatballs
    Categories: Five, Pork, Cheese, Breads, Vegetables
    Yield: 24 Meatballs

    2 lb Hot Italian sausage
    1/2 c Bread crumbs
    1/2 c Thin sliced green onions
    4 tb Grated Parmesan or Asiago
    2 lg Eggs

    In medium bowl, add sausage, bread crumbs, onions,
    cheese and egg. Mix thoroughly.

    Shape into 24 meatballs.

    Cook over med-low heat, turning frequently, until brown.

    Or, you can bake them @ 350ºF/175ºC for 35 or so minutes
    until cooked through. A wire rack over a sheet pan lets
    the grease drip away if you're averse to all the yummy
    fat.

    Serves 6 with pasta and red gravy

    Also makes scrumptious meatball subs using 6" (15cm)
    "hoagie" rolls w/marinara and some mozzarella cheese.
