  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
  3. Roll the mixture into meatballs, about the size of a golf ball, and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cooking
  1. Bake the meatballs in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until browned.
  2. While the meatballs are baking, heat a large skillet over medium heat and sauté sliced mushrooms and diced onion until soft, about 5 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle flour over the mushroom mixture, stirring constantly for a minute. Gradually add beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, stirring until gravy thickens.
  4. Once the meatballs are done, transfer them to the skillet with the gravy and let simmer for 5-10 minutes.
