Categories     Trusted Brands: Recipes and Tips     MUSSELMAN'S® Apple Butter

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup MUSSELMAN'S® Apple Butter, divided
1 tablespoon butter
½ cup grated red onion
1 pound pork sausage
1 pound ground beef
2 cups panko bread crumbs
¼ cup sour cream
2 eggs
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon allspice
½ cup beef broth
2 tablespoons honey
Cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a large-rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  • Place a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter in it. When the butter has melted, add the grated onions and saute for 3-4 minutes, until soft.
  • In a large bowl, mix the sausage, ground beef, panko, 1/2 cup apple butter, sour cream, eggs, salt, pepper, and allspice. Add the onion, once it cools. Get your hands in it and mix well, until evenly combined.
  • Measure out the meatballs into one-ounce portions. Roll tight balls and place them on the baking sheet, close together, but not touching. You should have 40-45 meatballs.
  • Bake for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of apple butter, with beef broth, honey, and 1-2 dashes of cayenne pepper. Whisk well.
  • After 15 minutes, remove the meatballs from the oven. Pour the sauce over the top, making sure to cover each meatball, and place back in the oven for 5-7 minutes.
  • Once cooked through, shake the baking sheet a little to loosen the meatballs and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sausage: Opt for a high-quality sausage with a flavorful blend of spices. Avoid sausages that are too lean or have excessive fillers.
  • Mix in some extras: Enhance the meatballs with additional ingredients like bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped herbs, or finely diced vegetables.
  • Use a combination of cooking methods: Brown the meatballs in a skillet to create a crispy exterior, then transfer them to a baking sheet and finish cooking in the oven. This ensures evenly cooked meatballs with a tender interior.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When browning the meatballs, make sure to leave enough space between them to prevent steaming. Overcrowding can result in uneven cooking and soggy meatballs.
  • Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the meatballs are cooked through, insert a meat thermometer into the center of one meatball. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  • Make ahead and freeze: Prepare the meatballs ahead of time and freeze them for later use. Simply thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for a few hours before cooking.

With their irresistibly juicy centers and crispy exteriors, these party sausage meatballs are sure to be a hit at your next gathering. Whether you serve them as an appetizer, main course, or party snack, these versatile meatballs will satisfy everyone's cravings.
