SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALLS

My Mom's sweet and sour meatballs recipe. These meatballs are baked in the oven in a retro sweet and sour sauce that can't be beat!

Categories     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds ground beef
2 large eggs
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup of diced onion ((if you like onion in them))
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour or cornstarch
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup ketchup

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 375 °F
  • Mix the sauce ingredients together in a medium sized sauce pan until fully combined. Bring to a low rolling boil, and cook until it thickens. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Combine the meatball ingredients : breadcrumbs, garlic, salt, pepper, egg, onions and ground beef together in a stand mixer bowl. Use the paddle attachment and mix on low until combined. This makes for the BEST distribution of egg and crumbs through the meat!
  • Roll the meat mixture into meatballs, whichever size you want. I prefer slightly larger ones, they don't dry out as quickly.
  • Pop them into the 375 degrees oven and start them cooking.
  • After about 20 minutes, take the meatballs out for a second, and drain the fat out of them.
  • Now you can cover those meatballs up with sauce. Pour the sauce over the meatball, covering them completely.
  • Finish cooking them until done, and they look oh-so saucy and delicious. This can take up to another 20-30 minutes depending on the size of your meatballs.
  • When cooking meatballs I like to insert a thermometer in them and make sure they have reached a temp of at least 165 degrees. With all the beef recalls lately, it's far better safe than sorry!
  • I love sweet and sour meatballs on rice, especially bad-for-you, white rice! Serve with the side of your choice.
