How to Make Bar B Q Meatballs
- In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef, 1/2 lb ground pork, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon onion powder. Gently mix until just combined.
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup BBQ sauce, 1/4 cup ketchup, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika.
- Transfer the browned meatballs to a slow cooker or a 9x13 inch baking dish. Pour the BBQ sauce over the meatballs.
- **Slow Cooker:** Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
- **Oven:** Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 1 hour, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce is bubbly. Check for doneness using a meat thermometer (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
- Serve immediately on toasted hoagie rolls with melted provolone, toothpicks with a cube of cheese, or your favorite side dish.
