Here is my first Meatball in Tomatoe Sauce. I do this several different ways.
Beef and Bacon Meatballs in Sauce
1 lb lean ground beef
5 pieces bacon, uncooked, cut into small pieces
1/2 c. commerical bread crumbs
1T. dry minced onion
2 cloves garlice, Minced
2 t. worchestershire sauce
3 dashes chipolte tabasco
Combine the ingredients and shape into small meatballs. Bake in a 450 oven for about 10 minutes. Refer back to last weeks meatballs for more detailed instructions. This is a fatter meatball that the first week because of the bacon. Husband is at step son and daughter in law's looking at some repair to a canopy and having a very good time, I'm sure. But he will be a long soon.
Since it's just the 2 of us tonight, I'll freeze half of the meatballs for meatball sandwiches in Josh's barbecue sauce for another day.
Sauce for the meatballs.
2 8 oz cans tomato sauce
1/2 t. sugar
2 t. Italian seasoning.
Mix together and set aside.
Once the meatballs are cooked, place half of them in a large skillet and set aside the others for packaging for later. Pour the sauce over the meatballs and bring to a slow simmer. Turn the meatballs in the sauce as they simmer slowly for about 20 minutes. This isn't anything like marinara. This is more of a glaze.
Simmer until you haven't got much sauce left.
Remember to simmer, not boil.
Next Monday, Meatballs in Plum Sauce.
YUM, I love bacon and I have a salmon patty recipe that includes bacon we enjoy. And now these meat balls. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteBacon in a salmon patty? I may have to get that recipe from you.
