Wall Township competition to crown meatball champ

A call has gone out to Jersey Shore chefs inviting them to throw down in a friendly competition that will put their top meatball recipe to the test.

The 9th annual Jersey Shore Meatball Gala will be on the hunt for the region's top meatballer. Held at Wall Township’s Spring Lake Manor, prizes will be presented on the day, and everyone in attendance will be invited to vote for their top pick. Tickets will go on sale on Tuesday, March 11, starting at $60 each.

The activity, which is limited to those age 21 and up, will see attendees sample as many of the meatball recipes as they wish, and they will be served alongside bread, salads, coffee, and dessert. A cash bar service will be available too. The winner will be crowned with the title “Best Meatball on the Jersey Shore.”

The organizers of the competition are hoping it will draw a large crowd, and sponsorships and contestant entries may still be available. Custom awards and other Corporate Gifts for a function can be crafted by printing services companies.

The 2025 Jersey Shore Meatball Gala will bring food and fun to Wall Township on Tuesday, April 29. Its agenda kicks off at 6:00 pm. More details for both vendors and attendees are available on its Patch listing.
