Prepare a mixture of ground beef, pork, and chicken for the meatballs.

Add cheeses, chopped onion, salt, and milk to the mixture.

Add 4 eggs to the mixture.

Mix everything together and form meatballs.

Roll the meatballs in bread crumbs, pine nuts, anchovy, and capers.

Tie the meatballs with string before adding them to the sauce.

Brown the meatballs, ribs, and sausage in a pan.

Once browned, remove the meat from the pan and add it to the sauce.

Add chili peppers and red wine to the sauce.

Add a little water to the sauce to prevent condensation.

Bring the sauce to a boil and then let it simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours.
