For an interesting new twist on finger food, try these tasty BBQ meatballs. They can be dressed up by placing them on a dipping sauce-laden spoon, then staggering them on your buffet. Or you can line them up on a serving platter and pierce with a decorative toothpick in the center. Whatever your choice, I guarantee you a finger-lickin’ treat.

Ingredients

Meatballs

  • 1 pound (450 grams) ground beef

  • 1 egg, beaten

  • 1/2 cup Gefen Seasoned Bread Crumbs

  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Zesty Balsamic Barbecue Sauce

  • 1/8 teaspoon dry mustard

  • 1/2–1 teaspoon hot sauce


Wine Pairing

Hagafen Syrah

Directions

Make the Meatballs

1.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (205 degrees Celsius). Combine all meat mixture ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well.

2.

In a small bowl, combine all sauce ingredients and mix well. Add two tablespoons of sauce into the meat mixture. Shape into one- and- a- half-inch balls.

3.

Place meatballs on a shallow baking pan or a disposable baking sheet lined with Gefen Parchment Paper and coated with cooking spray. Bake uncovered 20–25 minutes. If desired, brush with remaining barbecue sauce before baking. Alternatively, use the remaining sauce as a dipping sauce. Double the sauce recipe if using for dipping.

Awesome in taste & so easy to prepare! Those meatballs were heavenly and easy to prepare on a late work day! I smeared the dip on and drizzled spoonfuls of the leftover dip onto the balls before baking.
Served with angel hair pasta, mixed with sautéed scallions & garlic, and spiced with salt, pepper, basil, dill & parsley.
