Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet. In a large mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and milk and let stand for 2 minutes until the crumbs are evenly moistened.

Add the ground beef, ground pork, egg, Parmesan, garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce to the bowl. Mix with your hands until just combined — stop as soon as no streaks of breadcrumb remain; overmixing toughens the meatballs.
