Honey Garlic Party Meatballs

Now that the holidays are behind us, we can shift away from all the sweets and get ourselves ready for Bowl Games and the mothership of all football games, the Superbowl!

Currently, I’m in Tampa Florida for the Outback Bowl where our LSU Tigers will face the Iowa Hawkeyes.

I don’t know what the heck a Hawkeye is, but I know that they have migrated to Florida in the masses.

They. Are. Everywhere.

Their fans that is. Not actual Hawkeyes. Remember, I wouldn’t know one if I saw one.

I thought while I’m away I’d share with you a fun recipe for those of you who will be watching the game at home.

I like to call that activity  “homegating”. Tailgating in your own home!

Honey Garlic Party Meatballs

These meatballs aren’t your traditional meatballs. For starters they’re made with ground pork rather than ground beef.

Then, instead of dousing your meatballs with barbeque sauce we’re using a mixture of  ketchup, honey, soy sauce and the secret ingredient to make them “party” meatballs…..Tabasco!

Honey Garlic Party Meatballs

Simple.  Tasty. Easy to pop em’ on a toothpick & gooble.

All the necessary requirements for serving up  fabulous gameday munchies.

Oh, and if you’re here for the “announcement” these party meatballs are headed to the Taste of Home Cooking School shows in both Mississippi and Louisiana with……………..ME!

That’s right friends I’m ready to bring my meatballs to quite a large party.

SQUEAL!

More details soon!!!!

But for now, make my Honey Garlic Party Meatballs.

Yield: 12
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes

The sweet and spicy Honey Garlic sauce make these meatballs party ready.

Ingredients

  • For the Meatballs:
  • 2 lbs. ground pork (or beef)
  • 3/4 cup bread crumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 clove garlic, pressed
  • For the Sauce:
  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • 2 medium cloves garlic, pressed
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons Tabasco sauce, (or other hot sauce, to taste)

Instructions

    Combine all ingredients for the meatballs in a medium-sized bowl; mix well and form into 1 to 1 1/2 inch balls. Brown in skillet; drain. Reduce heat.
    In a separate bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients then pour onto the meatballs. Simmer on low heat for 30 minutes. If serving as an appetizer for a crowd add meatballs to slow cooker after browning, and keep the temperature on low. Makes approximately 24-28 meatballs (depending on size).

I'm not even going to complain about how cold it h I'm not even going to complain about how cold it has been in Louisiana when friends are having it so bad in Texas, but y'all... I had to pull out and dust off my Alaskan cruise clothes when we lost power earlier in the week. πŸ₯Ά We just aren't equipped down here. I've had ALL THE SOUPS on rotation including this Slow Cooker Chicken Noodle that has been on the blog forever, but got some new photos. Because if you're gonna be iced in, might as well photograph & update your recipes! I hope you are staying WARM where you are. πŸ₯£ πŸ” πŸ₯£

Slooooowly getting into the groove of 2021. Since Slooooowly getting into the groove of 2021. Since it's been so long since I've been able to enjoy a good ole’ Olive Garden soup, salad & breadsticks combo, I took matters into my own hands and recreated the experience at home complete with Pasta e Fagioli. πŸ₯£ Side note: Did y'all know they sell their OG salad dressing at the grocery?! 😳 Since I'm also attempting to do better with meal prepping and make ahead meals this new year, I'm freezing half for the next time I have a craving I can't control...or the temps in Louisiana drop without warning. WINNING. πŸ™ŒπŸ₯£
