Yield: About 25-30 meatballs
BBQ Meatballs
INGREDIENTS
- 2 lb. ground beef, chicken or turkey
- 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
- 1 cup very finely chopped onions (a food processor works great for this)
- 2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. ground black pepper
- 1 tsp. dried oregano
- 1 tsp. garlic powder or fresh minced garlic
- 2 tsp. worcestershire sauce
- 2 eggs
- 4-5 cups of your favorite BBQ sauce
- 3 tbsp. Extra virgin olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a large bowl, combine all the meatball ingredients and use your (gloved?) hands to thoroughly mix everything together.
- Roll meatballs about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter.
- Brown meatballs in a large skillet over medium high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Place browned meatballs in the bottom of a large heavy pot as you continue to brown them in batches.
- Pour the BBQ sauce over all the browned meatballs, using the full 5 cups if needed to make sure all the meatballs are covered in sauce.
- Cook on high for 1 hour or low for 3 hours until meatballs are hot and fully cooked.
