You could just cook the meatballs in the sauce although you will experience grease in the sauce, it is better to pre-cook them first - please adjust the amount of brown sugar, you might want to start with only 1/2 cup and add in more to taste - this is *very* good! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups ketchup |
1 small onion, finely chopped |
2 teaspoons fresh minced garlic |
3/4 cup brown sugar (or to taste) |
2 teaspoons liquid smoke seasoning |
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional or to taste) |
1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef |
2 tablespoons fresh minced garlic |
1/3 cup milk or 1/3 cup evaporated milk |
1/2 cup breadcrumbs or 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats |
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt |
2 teaspoons chili powder (use the milk chili powder used for making chili) |
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Set oven to 350 degrees F. 2. Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking dish. 3. For the meatballs; in a bowl mix all ingredients together until well blended (add in more breadcrumbs or oats if the mixture is too soft). 4. Shape into about 1-1/2-inch balls. 5.
