Y’all know how much I love beef & my airfryer.
I named my airfryer 💁🏼♀️His name is Albert. If you’ve been following me for a bit you know I name all my plants too🪴💕
After experimenting with all different kinds of ground meats, 85% ground beef is my fav. Just the right amount of fat for my macros, flavor, & texture.
I used to bake meatballs all the time, but fell in love with the crispy edges on meat when cooking in the airfryer. I thought, why the heck not, let’s airfry’em.
You can add cheese with this recipe or omit if sensitive to dairy. You can also use different kinds of ground meats, have fun with these!! Ground Pork is another fav, if you’re trying to reduce fat use a leaner ground chicken or ground turkey like a 93%
Simple Cheesy Carnivore Meatballs
Ingredients
- 2 lbs ground beef (I like 85%, idc if it’s grass fed or grain fed. I feel people over complicate things. As long as it agrees with your health, eat it. I prefer grain fed for taste.)

- 3 oz shredded Italian cheese blend (or whatever you’d like)
- 1 tsp pink Himalayan sea salt
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients in a bowl.
- Roll into balls (~1-2 inches in diameter) Should make 24 meatballs.
- Cook at 350 degrees for 8 minutes. Turn meat balls & cook for another 4 minutes.
