One of the best things Pete cooks are meatball. They’re always a request any time he’s cooking for a holiday.

So of course, there’s an entire holiday built around them.

Not around Pete’s meatballs, but meatballs in general.

National Meatball Day is held annually on March 9 and of course there are restaurants that have deals to celebrate.

To make sure you don’t miss any of the deals (and so you don’t cook dinner tonight when you don’t have to), check out this list.
