Brandied Meatballs Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Brown the meatballs with the onion.
• 2. Place in the Crock Pot with the rest of your ingredients.
• 3. Stir to mix.
• 4. Cover and cook on low until hot and coated well (about 2 hours).
• 5. You can leave in Crock Pot on warm until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Mix together the lean ground beef, onion soup mix, egg and cracker crumbs.
• Shape into meatballs and brown in a skillet with a little olive oil.
• Place meatballs into slow cooker.
• Mix together the last 5 ingredients and pour over meatballs.
• Cook on Low for 5 to 6 hours.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, soak bread crumbs in warm milk while you prepare the onions.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Stir in onions and a pinch of salt and cook until pale golden, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer half the onions to a large bowl and set aside.
• Prepare sauce: Add brandy to skillet with onions and ignite with a long match or igniter (or if you're using a gas stove, just swirl pan, brandy should catch fire). Let flame die down, then add the remaining butter, letting it melt. Sprinkle in flour. Sauté until flour browns, about 3 minutes. Whisk in broth, cream and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Simmer, whisking, until reduced to a sauce, about 5 minutes. Add mustard, if you like, and season with more salt, if needed.
• To large bowl with onion, add remaining 1 3/4 teaspoons salt, soaked bread crumbs, beef, pork, eggs, garlic, pepper, allspice, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Roll into 1-inch balls (about 2 tablespoons each), placing them on one or two rimmed baking sheets as you go.
• Heat broiler. Drizzle meatballs with oil. Broil meatballs, switching pans' positions if using more than one so they both get close to the broiler, until well browned all over, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve with gravy, garnished with herbs.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, croutons, sweet onion, egg, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, red pepper flakes, and Cajun seasoning. Form the mixture by hand into meatballs.
• Heat the olive oil and melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the meatballs in the skillet, and cook, turning constantly, 20 minutes, or to desired doneness.
