Because of my serious recipe addiction, I have a habit of making "one and done" recipes. I have so many things I want to try that I frequently make things one time only, no matter how great they turn out. And then it's on to the next new thing! Not so with this recipe. I have several times already since I discovered this amazing recipe!
Every other recipe can wait. This is too good. I'm talking about ground beef, cheese, and sauteed onion smothered in BBQ sauce and baked in a pie crust. (Please excuse me while I wipe the drool off my keyboard.) This is the kind of food that you eat and think, "I could eat this the rest of my life." Those who really know me know that I love any excuse to eat BBQ sauce. So this dish is right up my alley. And my husband would probably eat roadkill if I served it on pie crust. So it's right up his alley as well. To say the least, we're both kind of into this recipe.
Today I am sharing a true oldie but goodie--BBQ meatballs. Nothing fancy here. Just good old-fashioned home-cooking like grandma used to make. I got this recipe from a college roommate. Shout out to you Stefanie! We ate a lot of convenience food back in the day, if we even bothered to have full meals. But Sunday nights we actually got together and made ourselves real food. These meatballs were Stef's specialty. And when she got married and moved out, I made sure to get the recipe from her.
This is one of those recipes that circulates around a small town through just about every church and business cookbook. Who knows where it started! These savory little balls of beef are baked with a generous amount of a sweet and smoky BBQ sauce. This is one of my favorite main dishes and it is really simple, so I thought it was time for it to make its way to the rest of the world via the internet.
