No brining, no carving, no wrestling a huge turkey in and out of the oven required. Just a cozy, flavorful, one-pan dinner here that will be ready to go in a little over an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We loved serving these turkey meatballs with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/best-mashed-potatoes-recipe\/\">mashed potatoes<\/a>, but they would also be great with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/baked-potato\/\">baked potatoes<\/a>, buttered noodles, or rice. Definitely perfect for the holidays or anytime you&#8217;re craving those classic Thanksgiving flavors without committing to a whole turkey.

I always use <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/44cabbD\">a scoop<\/a> to make the process go quickly!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Simmer low and slow.<\/strong> A soft simmer keeps the gravy silky and helps the meatballs stay tender.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Taste and season at the end.<\/strong> Every stock is different, so adjust the salt, pepper, and Worcestershire once the gravy is done.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1392\" height=\"2088\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/turkey-meatballs-with-gravy\/?tp_image_id=91626\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-12-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-91626\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-12-1.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-12-1-1100x1650.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-12-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-12-1-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-12-1-400x600.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1392px) 100vw, 1392px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-recipe-variations\">Recipe Variations<\/h2>\n\n<p>Here are some fun ways to customize this recipe if you&#8217;d like!<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Add mushrooms.<\/strong> Saut\u00e9 sliced mushrooms after browning the meatballs, then build the gravy on top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use ground chicken or pork.<\/strong> Both work beautifully with the same panade and gravy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Make it creamy.<\/strong> Stir \u00bc cup heavy cream or half-and-half into the gravy at the end.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add veggies.<\/strong> Stir some peas, spinach, kale, or caramelized onions into the gravy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Make it gluten-free.<\/strong> Use gluten-free panko and swap the flour for a 1:1 GF flour blend.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1392\" height=\"2088\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/turkey-meatballs-with-gravy\/?tp_image_id=91629\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-14.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-91629\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-14.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-14-1100x1650.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-14-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-14-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gimmesomeoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Turkey-Meatballs-and-Gravy-14-400x600.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1392px) 100vw, 1392px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-faq\">FAQ<\/h2>\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1763487318357\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">can i make the meatballs in advance?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes!
