Ingredients for A 1 Meatballs

  • Ground Sirloin
  • White Bread
  • Half And Half
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Italian Seasoned Breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Sweet Onion
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • A.1. Original Sauce

How to Make A 1 Meatballs

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground sirloin, 2 large eggs, 1 cup bread cubes soaked in 1/2 cup half-and-half, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, and 1/2 cup finely chopped onion.
  3. Mix thoroughly but avoid overmixing.
  4. Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
  5. Lightly coat meatballs in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour.
  6. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in two large oven-safe skillets over medium-high heat.
  7. Brown the meatballs in batches, ensuring they are nicely seared on all sides. This helps them retain their shape.
  8. Once browned, reduce heat to low.
  9. Pour in one 8 oz bottle of A-1 steak sauce and 1/2 cup ketchup.
  10. Transfer skillets to preheated oven and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the meatballs are cooked through.
  11. Serve hot over pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
