In a large bowl combine ground beef and pork; mix with your hands, breaking up any lumps. Mix in all the other meatball ingredients (except the olive oil) until combined.

Shape
4
Using a cookie scoop or your hands, shape the mixture into 1½-inch balls, kneading a few times to ensure they don't crumble. (Place on a clean platter, cover and refrigerate for about ⏱️ 30 minutes, if possible—this helps them retain their round shape when cooking.)

Cook
6
In a large nonstick skillet, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches to avoid crowding, add the meatballs and cook turning continuously until browned on all sides and cooked through, about ⏱️ 6 minutes. Repeat with the remaining meatballs. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil.

Slowly whisk in the beef broth and then the heavy cream, stirring the entire time until lump-free. Whisk in the soy sauce and mustard; turn down the heat to a gentle simmer and let the sauce thicken, stirring constantly, 1 to ⏱️ 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
