Directions:
- Make Tomato Sauce: Purée tomatoes with their purée in a blender.
- Heat oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then sauté onion until golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Add garlic and sauté 1 minute. Add tomato purée, sugar, and salt and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Make Meatballs While Sauce Simmers: Stir together bread crumbs and milk in a large bowl and let stand for 10 minutes.
- Stir in eggs, cheese, garlic, parsley, oregano, and salt, then add turkey and blend with your hands until just combined well (do not overmix).
- Form 1 1/2-tablespoon portions into meatballs and arrange on 2 well-oiled large, heavy, rimmed baking sheets.
- Make Garlic Bread: Stir together butter, oil, garlic, salt, cheese, parsley, and pepper in a bowl. Spread about 2 rounded teaspoons garlic butter onto both split sides of each bun. Arrange buns, buttered sides up, on a large baking sheet.
- Broil Meatballs and Garlic Bread: Preheat broiler.
- Broil meatballs 3 to 4 inches from heat, turning over once, until golden and just cooked through (165°F on instant-read thermometer), 5 to 8 minutes.
- Broil buns, buttered sides only, until golden, 30 seconds to 1 minute, watching closely (buns brown fast).
- Assemble Heroes: Spoon some sauce on each bun, then top with 4 meatballs (depending on size of buns), and drizzle with more sauce.
- Cooks' Notes: Tomato sauce can be made up to 2 days ahead and chilled in an airtight container. Reheat before using, thinning with water, if necessary, to desired consistency. Garlic butter can be made up to 2 days ahead and chilled in an airtight container. Bring to room temperature before using. Meatballs can be formed 1 day ahead. Put them on a wax paperlined baking sheet, cover them tightly with plastic wrap, and chill.
