Equipment

  • Small Cookie Scoop (or two spoons)
  • Sheet Pan with Parchment or Silpat
  • Non-Stick Skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground Beef I used an 80/20 blend
  • 1/2 c Bread Crumbs I used Panko
  • 1/3 c Onion finely diced
  • 1/4 c Milk
  • 1 tbsp Parsley chopped
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1/8 tsp Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 large Egg
  • 12 oz Bottle of Chili Sauce
  • 10 oz Jar of Grape Jelly

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone baking mat.
  • Mix all meatball ingredients (except chili sauce and jelly). Using a small cookie scoop (or two spoons) portion out 48 balls and roll in your hands until smooth and compact.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until firm and no longer pink inside. Allow to set for a few minutes on a baking rack.
  • Meanwhile, heat chili sauce and grape jelly together in a large skillet until they are well combined.
  • Add in meatballs tossing until coated. Simmer uncovered until ready to serve.

Notes

*Double the recipe if serving a crowd.
**Try keeping warm in a slow cooker at your next party!
***Freeze meatballs and defrost when ready to serve.
****For the ultimate shortcut, use prepared or frozen meatballs.
