1 loaf pumpernickel or sourdough bread
1 cup milk

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
4 round tablespoons prepared horseradish
6 cloves garlic, grated or made into a paste

BEER AND KETCHUP MEATBALLS RECIPE - (4.7/5)



Beer and Ketchup Meatballs Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by á-46353

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 (28 ounce) bottles ketchup
9-1/3 cups beer
4-3/4 pounds ground beef
2 tablespoons and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
3 onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place the beer and ketchup in a slow cooker on high setting and allow to simmer.. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic powder and onion, mixing well. Form mixture into meatballs about 3/4 inch in diameter. Place meatballs in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 20 minutes. Transfer meatballs to the slow cooker with the beer and ketchup and simmer for 3 hours; sauce will thicken.

Tips:

  • For tender and flavorful meatballs, use a combination of ground beef and ground pork.
  • Use fresh herbs and spices to enhance the flavor of the meatballs. Common herbs and spices used in beer meatballs include garlic, onion, parsley, thyme, rosemary, and oregano.
  • Soak the bread crumbs in milk or beer before adding them to the meatball mixture. This will help to bind the ingredients together and prevent the meatballs from becoming dry.
  • Gently mix the meatball ingredients together. Overmixing can make the meatballs tough.
  • Form the meatballs into 1-inch balls. Do not pack the meat too tightly, as this can also make the meatballs tough.
  • Brown the meatballs in a pan before adding them to the sauce. This will help to seal in the flavor and prevent the meatballs from falling apart.
  • Use a good quality beer for the sauce. A dark beer, such as a stout or porter, will give the sauce a rich flavor. A lighter beer, such as a pilsner or lager, will give the sauce a more delicate flavor.
  • Simmer the meatballs in the sauce for at least 30 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the meatballs with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
