Mamma Mia Meatballs image

The name of these meatballs had its origin in an old Alka-Seltzer TV commercial: "Mamma mia, that's a spicy meatball-a!" I use these for receptions, and they always go over really well. I save time by using frozen meatballs, but you could make your own if you have a special meatball recipe. I'm adding my recipe for meatballs at...

Categories     Other Sauces

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

100 small frozen meatballs (5/8 ounce size)
1 c hot pepper jelly
1/4 c worcestershire sauce
1/4 c brown sugar
3 c ketchup
MY MEATBALL RECIPE
1 lb ground sirloin
1 c saltine cracker crumbs
1 egg
1/2 tsp potlatch seasoning (has pepper, salt, garlic, cumin)
1/2 tsp spicy garlic seasoning

Steps:

  • 1. Place meatballs in a very large baking dish. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Combine jelly, worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar in a large saucepan over medium heat. Heat to boiling, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Stir in ketchup and return to a boil. Lower heat and simmer about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 3. Pour sauce over meatballs; stir to coat well. Bake meatballs for 25-30 minutes, until sauce is somewhat reduced.
  • 4. Place meatballs and sauce in a large slow cooker on low to keep warm while serving. Serve with toothpicks.
  • 5. To make my meatballs: Beat egg and add to meat and cracker crumbs with seasonings in a large bowl. Mix well with hands until all combined. Form into 1-1/4" meatballs. Place on foil-covered baking sheet. Bake at 400° about 15 minutes.
  • 6. Chris Langel gave me a recipe for potlatch seasoning! 2 tsp. salt, 3/4 tsp. ground cumin, 1/2 tsp. dried oregano, crushed, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder, 1/4 tsp. chili powder, 1/8 tsp. white pepper = about 4 tsp.
