Steph's Zesty Sweet and Sour Meatballs image

These meatballs are great! I came up with them on a whim one night while searching through my pantry trying to answer the age old question, 'What's for dinner?' My family LOVES these! I have also taken them to several BBQ's and they are ALWAYS a big hit! For dinner, I like to serve them with a side of steamed minute rice to go along with the meatballs. I hope you enjoy!

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (15 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained with juice reserved
1 tablespoon soy sauce
⅓ cup apple cider vinegar
½ cup dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 pound lean ground beef
1 egg
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup milk
½ cup Italian dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons dried minced onion
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 green bell pepper, chopped

Steps:

  • Heat a slow cooker to Medium-High; stir the reserved liquid from the pineapple chunks, soy sauce, vinegar, and brown sugar together in the slow cooker. Whisk the cornstarch into the mixture until dissolved.
  • Mix the ground beef, egg, Worcestershire sauce, milk, bread crumbs, onion, salt, and pepper together in a bowl; form into 1-inch balls.
