Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper
In a mixing bowl add eggs ,milk, bread crumbs, a ranch dressing packet, and Lipton onion soup packet
Whisk together well
Add meat and mix well. The best way to do this is get your hands dirty and mix it all up.
Use an ice cream scoop and scoop out portions and roll them into balls, then place them on the lined cookie sheet
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes
Gravy
While the meatballs are baking in a mixing bowl mix 5 cups of water, 2 packets of McCormicks Brown gravy mix, 1 Tablespoon of Browning sauce, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch , 1 packet of Lipton onion soup and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder.
Pour the mixture into a Dutch oven type pot.
Start the temperature of the stove top on High until the mixture comes to a boil stirring with a flat spatula to prevent the mixture from settling to the bottom. Once the mixture comes to a boil reduce the heat to medium to low, you want a slow simmer
Once the meatballs have cooked for 30 minutes remove them from the oven. With meat tongs or a spoon carefully add them to the gravy mixture. Simmer for 20-30 minutes. Do not boil or the meatballs will break apart.
Once this done it can be served over rice , egg noodles or mashed potatoes

Notes
Feel free to use your favorite brand of onion soup mix and ranch mix. I have used the store Brand it still comes out fine. The browning sauce is hard to find so use the brand you can find . Kitchen bouquet and gravy master are two common choices.
