Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 3/4 cup dry breadcrumbs
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 18 oz Grape or Blackberry Jelly
  • 18 oz BBQ Sauce

Instruction

  • Combine the ground beef and pork with the eggs, breadcrumbs and seasonings in a bowl and mix really well.  Mr. Juggling Act uses his hands to mix.  If the mixture feels very dense, you can add a splash of water.
  • Roll the meat mixture into 2" balls.  The mixture will feel a little like dough that needs more flour, but more dense. 
  • TIP: Do not overwork the meatballs.  Roll them gently between your palms until they just come together.
  • Arrange the meatballs on a large baking tray.  Add about 1/2-inch of water to the tray to prevent the meatballs from sticking or burning.
  • Bake in a 350-degree F oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until meatballs are browned.
  • Cooked Meatballs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
