This recipe is simple, tried and true, and is a hit everytime.
Grape Jelly Meatballs
1 1/2 cups chili sauce
1 cup grape jelly
1 to 3 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 pound lean ground beef
1 egg, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons fine dry bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt
Combine chili sauce, jelly, and mustard in crock pot and stir well. Cook, covered, on high while preparing meatballs.
Combine remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly. Shape into 30 meatballs. Bake meatballs in a preheated 400 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes; drain well. Add meatballs to sauce, stir to coat, cover and cook on low for 6 to 10 hours.
MEATBALLS ON A STICK
REGULAR MEATBALLS
1 beaten egg.
1 tablespoon chopped parsley.
1 clove minced garlic.
3/4 cups cup bread crumbs
1 lb ground beef or lamb.
2 1/2 tablespoons chopped onions.
1/4 teaspoon salt.
1/8 teaspoon pepper. (option).
Some people may not want to add pepper.
Roll this mixture into 20 meatballs and place on a baking dish and cook in a microwave for about 6 minutes (check and make sure all the pink color is gone). Make sure that all the balls are the same size as if not the small ones will cook faster. Now drain off the fat and save the meatballs for your party.
Some people will wrap the meatballs abound items like pieces of cheese, nuts, pickles, chili peppers, etc. You can almost use any thing. place on toothpick sticks.
I have only recently found the secret to making the most yummy meatballs / rissoles of all time. about 1kg mince,1 finely diced onion, mixed herbs, 1 egg, salt and pepper, and enough Fountain brand garlic and red wine marinade sauce to make a nice moist mix. roll into small balls, roll in flour and shallow fry, serve with your choice of dipping sauce, sweet and sour is really good. hope this helps.
Once, we had a potluck at work.I bought a 4 pound bag of frozen meatballs and a jar of spaghetti sauce. The night before, I put the spag sauce and meatballs in a crock pot and set it on low. In the morning, you’ll have to skim the grease from the meatballs. Buy a box of toothpicks so guests can serve themselves. Everybody loved it.
In a bowl mix: 1 lb. hamburg, 1/2 lb lamb, 1/4 lb pork
1 Egg
1/2 C Milk/Cream
1 C Fine Vietnamese Bread Crumbs
(Possibly more if mixture is too wet)
Season: Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder,
a few swipes of fresh nutmeg
Mix well. Shape into small bite size balls and bake at 350F for about 15-20 minutes. Serve plain or with a sweet & sour sauce.
Just take some mince beef, add an egg salt & pepper. You can add whatever sauce you like. I usually put in some bbq sauce. a touch of garlic. Roll into small bite sized balls roll in plain four and shallow fry or oven bake.
Servbe with sauce or sauces of your choice. ie tomato bbq or even sweet chilli yum yum!!
Try these chicken meatballs:
ASIAN CHICKEN MEATBALLS
500g chicken mince
2 shallots (green onions), thinly sliced
1 tab finely grated ginger
1 tab cornflour
1 tab oyster sauce
1 cup fresh breadcrumbs
1 tab sweet chilli sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
Combine mince, ginger, sauces, shallots, cornflour and breadcrumbs in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Roll mixture into small balls and place on a sprayed tray. Spray all over with cooking oil.
Add meatballs, in two batches, to a heated non-stick frypan. Cook, turning occasionally, for about 6 mins or until browned and cooked through. Serve with extra chilli sauce.
