Categories     main-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 cups barbecue sauce
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon loosely packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
One 25-count bag All-Purpose Meatballs (still frozen is fine), recipe follows
Mashed potatoes, for serving
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving
Green salad, for serving
5 pounds ground beef
1 1/2 cups plain breadcrumbs
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons grainy mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the barbecue sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, hot sauce and Worcestershire and bring to a boil. Add the All-Purpose Meatballs and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook until the meatballs are heated through, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Spoon over mashed potatoes and sprinkle with parsley. Serve with a green salad.
  • To make the meatballs, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, cream, parsley, mustard, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Mix together well with your hands. Scoop out 1-tablespoon portions and roll them into balls with your hands. Place the meatballs onto parchment-lined baking sheets and put the baking sheets in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes for the meatballs to firm up.
  • To brown the meatballs, heat the olive oil in a heavy pot or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Cook, turning the meatballs to make sure they brown all over, 5 to 7 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.
  • Freezer instructions: Put the cooked meatballs in a single layer on baking sheets and put into the freezer. When frozen, divide them into freezer bags, 25 per bag, and return them to the freezer. Yield: 125 meatballs.

Categories     Appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb ground beef
1/2 lb ground pork
1/2 cup Progresso™ Panko Italian style crispy bread crumbs
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 egg
2 cloves garlic, grated
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
2 teaspoons chile flakes (or to taste)
Chopped chives (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Mix all of the meatball ingredients together and form your meatballs.
  • Heat a large frying pan with a little oil and gently, one by one, add in the meatballs.
  • After they cook for about 4 minutes, flip the meatballs and cook an additional 4 minutes. Once they're cooked on the outside, they should be a little less delicate. Making sure none are stuck to the bottom, start tossing them in the pan a little more to cook them evenly. Drain most of the fat, leaving a few tablespoons' worth in the pan.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of water to deglaze the pan, scraping up any stuck-on pieces. Add the brown sugar, adding a little more water if the pan looks too dry.
  • The sauce should start to bubble and look like dark caramel.
  • Remove from heat and add in the barbecue sauce. Stir well.
  • Remove from heat and add in the barbecue sauce. Stir well.

JERK CHICKEN MEATBALLS WITH BARBECUE-PINEAPPLE GLAZE



Jerk Chicken Meatballs With Barbecue-Pineapple Glaze image

This recipe takes the deep flavor of jerk chicken and turns it into easy meatballs. The jerk seasoning paste does double duty here, adding both spices and moisture, so don't reach for dry jerk seasoning. Whether served alone as an appetizer, over rice, or even tucked in a sandwich, these meatballs are perfectly salty, sweet and spicy.

Provided by Millie Peartree

Categories     meatballs, poultry, appetizer, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

Neutral oil
1 pound ground chicken or turkey
1 small yellow or red onion, finely diced
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup bread crumbs
2 tablespoons Jamaican jerk seasoning paste, such as Grace or Walkerswood
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup pineapple juice
1/2 packed cup light or dark brown sugar
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 small garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
Pinch of kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon cornstarch
White rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil and very lightly coat it with oil.
  • Prepare the meatballs: In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, onion, egg, bread crumbs, jerk seasoning paste, parsley, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly to combine, being careful not to overwork the meat. Using lightly wet hands, form the mixture into 12 meatballs, each a bit larger than a golf ball, and space them out on the prepared pan. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. (Alternatively, you can fry them in a nonstick pan coated in oil over medium heat for about 4 to 5 minutes per side.)
  • While the meatballs cook, prepare the glaze: Whisk the pineapple juice, brown sugar, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, onion powder, red-pepper flakes and salt together in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until it reduces enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water. Slowly whisk into the sauce, increase the heat to medium and stir until you reach the desired consistency. (Sauce should look like a thicker gravy.) Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Add the meatballs to the sauce and stir until coated. Cook over medium-low heat for 2 minutes, until the meatballs are evenly glazed and deepen slightly in color. Serve hot on their own or over rice.

Tips:

  • Use ground beef with a fat content of 80/20. This will help keep the meatballs moist and flavorful.
  • Add bread crumbs to the meatball mixture. This will help bind the meatballs together and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Grate Parmesan cheese and add it to the meatball mixture. This will add a delicious cheesy flavor to the meatballs.
  • Use a variety of spices in the meatball mixture. This will give the meatballs a complex flavor.
  • Form the meatballs into small, 1-inch balls. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Brown the meatballs in a skillet over medium heat. This will help them develop a nice crust.
  • Transfer the meatballs to a baking dish and cover them with barbecue sauce. This will help them glaze and become sticky.
  • Bake the meatballs in a preheated oven for 30 minutes. This will help them cook through and become tender.
  • Serve the meatballs with your favorite sides. They are great with rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

These barbecue glazed meatballs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that everyone will love. So next time you are looking for a crowd-pleasing recipe, give these barbecue glazed meatballs a try. You won't be disappointed!
