Johnny Meatballs
Wood-Ridge, New Jersey
My name is Johnny Meatballs, I'm a proud Jersey Italian!!!! I cook and sell my famous "Trinity" meatballs (made of veal, pork & beef) out of my custom-constructed mobile meatball cart: JOHNNY MEATBALLS ON A ROLL. It's the world's first wagon on wheels specifically built to serve up my hot specialty! Find me and the "Meat & Greet" team all summer long across the Garden State and beyond at feasts, farmers markets, flea markets, craft fairs, private and public events large and small!!!! In 2010, I was a cast member on the Vh1 reality show, "My Big Friggin' Wedding," and I wrote and recorded "The Meatball Song" (available on i-Tunes). I have an autobiographical cookbook out entitled, "My Big Friggin' Book" and I also publish a weekly blog called "Cugine Corner" on i-Italy.org every Tuesday. You can follow my many projects and food adventures on my youtube channel (The Johnny Meatballs) and on twitter (@JohnnyMeatballs). Hit me up on facebook (johnnydecarlo) or e-mail me at johnny.decarlo@gmail.com. And always remember...say your prayers, respect your mother, eat your meatballs! God Bless!

I recently had a two-hour dinner meeting at a local pizza parlor with an acclaimed local chef who first met me when I was doing a cooking demonstration at Chef Central last winter. Over Sicilian slices and Sangrias, we discussed a lot of different things—mostly about Italian-American cultural and food related trends sweeping the New Jersey...

I’ve received a ton of e-mails and facebook messages regarding my most recent blog post, “Body of Work: Exploring the Importance of Internet Status & Intangibles” where I discussed the social media tools I use for my company as well as dug deep into business facts and figures and entrepreneurship definitions. A lot of the...

My facebook friend Jimmy Bello posted a picture on his wall of Chef Boyardee with the following caption: Chef Boyardee is a brand of canned pasta products sold internationally by ConAgra Foods. Named after its founder, Italian-American immigrant Ettore “Hector” Boiardi, the company began production in the United States in the 1920s...

Cooking With Christine I recently had the pleasure of joining a long-time friend and famous local radio DJ, the one and only Christine Vitale, who welcomed me into her home where we whipped up a dinner together – on film. The last time we collaborated on a video project was when she interviewed me at the Sons of Italy two years ago,...

I made the following chicken and pasta dish on Holy Thursday and got a lot of comments on it when I posted the picture on facebook. It was such a hit in my house, I made it again on Easter Sunday evening after our day of lamb! Now, a lot of people would call it a sin to mix chicken and pasta together, but this is an Italian-American thing which...

So it’s officially Spring! March is over, Easter is this coming Sunday and “rebirth” begins. It’s very fitting that this is also a rebirth for Johnny Meatballs as well. Every year right around November (with the exception of my final event of the year – the Closter Christmas toy drive), my “feast season...

I may be the Meatball King, but I am also the king at utilizing and repurposing leftovers. On Super Bowl Sunday, we had quite a feast. I made my yearly batch of riceballs – 47 to be exact – since it was Super Bowl XLVII. My mother-in-law brought over her chili, along with macaroni salad. My wife made sausage and peppers and chicken...

No this recipe does not contain meatballs, but this is my take on the old school Chicken a la King dish very popular in the ‘60s. From time to time, I like to make all-American classics like this and Beef Stroganoff to name a few, and I always try to “Italian-ize” it a little bit. This has many variations, and can be served...
