- Remove meatballs from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add brown gravy mix and beef broth, stirring to combine. Scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Notes
You can make the meatballs ahead of time and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours before cooking.
For a vegetarian version, use plant-based meat or lentils in place of the ground beef.
If the gravy is too thin, thicken it with a mixture of cornstarch and water.
For extra flavor, try adding fresh herbs like parsley or thyme to the meatballs.
