How many meatballs will a pound of ground beef yield?

You can't determine the exact number of meatballs from a pound of ground beef without knowing the size of the meatballs you want to make.

Here's why:

* Meatball Size: A single meatball can be as small as a marble or as large as a golf ball. The size directly impacts how many you get from a pound.

* Recipe Variations: Recipes often have different ratios of ground beef to other ingredients like bread crumbs or eggs, which can influence the yield.

To figure out how many meatballs you can make, you'll need to:

1. Decide on your desired meatball size.

2. Use a recipe that specifies the number of meatballs it yields.

3. Estimate the number of meatballs based on your chosen size.

Here's a rough guide:

* Small meatballs: You could get about 20-30 small meatballs from a pound of ground beef.

* Medium meatballs: You could get about 12-18 medium meatballs from a pound of ground beef.

* Large meatballs: You could get about 8-10 large meatballs from a pound of ground beef.

Remember, these are just estimates. The exact number will vary based on your recipe and the specific size of your meatballs.
