BBQ Sauced Meatballs image

Coated in a thick and tasty barbecue sauce, these tender meatballs taste like mini meat laves with a little zip. I usually freeze them in small baking dishes that I cover tightly with foil. They can be reheated in the microwave or oven.-Margery Bryan, Moses Lake, Washington

I used ground turkey instead of ground beef, and the meatballs were still very juicy and flavorful.

I found these meatballs to be a little dry. I think I would add more moisture next time, maybe by using a different type of ground meat or by adding some vegetables to the mix.
