Cherry BBQ Meatballs
Ingredients
- 4 slices thick bacon, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup onion, minced
- 1 tablespoon garlic, finely minced
- 2 pounds lean ground pork
- 1 pounds lean ground beef
- 1/3 cup American Spoon Cherry BBQ Grilling Sauce
- 1/4 cup American Spoon Dried Red Tart Cherries, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons cream or half and half
- 1 whole egg, beaten
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Sauté the bacon in a small sauté pan over medium heat. When the bacon is about half cooked, add the onions and garlic and continue to sauté until bacon is cooked and onions are transparent. Drain any excess grease from the bacon. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine remaining ingredients and mix gently. Add the mixture and mix thoroughly.
- Roll meat mixture into meatballs, using one rounded tablespoon of the mixture for each meatball. Place the meatballs onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes until cooked through.
- Transfer the cooked meatballs to a platter or serving bowl. Add grilling sauce to taste and mix gently before serving.
