Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pounds ground beef chuck
1 (14 ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (1 ounce) package onion soup mix
¼ cup dry bread crumbs, or as needed
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 cups ketchup
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup port wine
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Mix ground chuck, evaporated milk, onion soup mix, bread crumbs, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Form approximately 40 small meatballs and place on a baking sheet.
  • Set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Broil meatballs until just browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn meatballs over and continue broiling until browned on other side, about 2 minutes more.
  • Transfer meatballs to a slow cooker.
  • Combine ketchup, brown sugar, port wine, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until dissolved, about 2 minutes. Pour over the meatballs in the slow cooker. Cook on High until meatballs are no longer pink in the middle and the sauce is thick, at least 1 hour.
