Preheat the Ninja Woodfire Grill to 250°F.

In a large bowl, combine ground beef, Italian sausage, Italian bread crumbs, shredded parmesan cheese, salt pepper garlic, red pepper flakes, Italian seasoning, chopped parsley, minced garlic, eggs, and olive oil.

Mix the ingredients until well combined.

Form the mixture into 2 to 3 ounce meatballs.

Place the meatballs on the grill grate and smoke until they reach an internal temperature of 150°F, checking with a thermometer.

Sear the meatballs on the grill for additional flavor.

Top the meatballs with mozzarella cheese and let it melt with the ambient heat.

Assemble the sliders on Kings Hawaiian rolls with truffle pasta sauce and the meatballs.
