Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup grated romano cheese (reserve half for additional topping) or 1/2 cup parmesan cheese ( reserve half for additional topping)
- 1/2 red bell pepper (diced )
- 1/2 green bell pepper (diced )
Directions:
- Combine all ingredients except pasta sauce in a large mixing bowl and mix thoroughly.
- If using charcoal- build your fire and make it low-medium heat, about 225-250°F Coat the grates with oil or non-stick spray.
- Shape mixture into balls slightly smaller than a baseball, but bigger than a golf ball and then set them aside. UPDATE: I started using a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the mixture and it makes the meatballs just the right size.
- Pour half of the sauce in a grill (oven) safe stock pot or roasting pan that will be large enough to hold all the meatballs. Place the pot/pan on the grill away from the direct heat when the fire is ready.
- When the grill is ready place the meatballs directly over the heat and sear on both the top and bottom for 3-5 minutes per side.
- When you are done searing the meatballs, place them away from the direct heat (I have a top rack on my grill and place them here).
- Let them cook for 5-8 more minutes or until the meatballs are firm, but not fully cooked and then place all the meatballs in the pot/pan and place that directly over the heat source.
- Cook for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 155-160 degrees F (you could also cut a meatball in half to make sure that the meat is no longer pink in the middle).
