1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
1/4 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
2 1/4 cups pineapple juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
One 25-count bag All-Purpose Meatballs (still frozen is fine), recipe follows
1 tablespoon sriracha hot sauce
1 cup drained small pineapple chunks
Steamed long-grain rice, for serving
2 tablespoons sliced green onions, for garnish
5 pounds ground beef
1 1/2 cups plain breadcrumbs
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons grainy mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

SWEET AND SOUR MEATBALLS

This is my version of an old tried and true party and buffet recipe, the major difference being that cooking the meatballs in the sauce is what helps flavor the sauce, much better than using pre-cooked meatballs, and the homemade meatballs are better seasoned and taste much better than store-bought.

Categories     Meat

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 dozen meatballs

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 lbs lean ground beef

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 (10 ounce) jar grape jelly
1 (12 ounce) jar chili sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
salt & freshly ground black pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine first 9 ingredients thoroughly.
  • Form into 3/4" meatballs.
  • Use a melon-baller to scoop meatballs; roll balls between the palms of your hands to shape them; set meatballs on a cookie sheet as you go, and chill to set them.
  • DO NOT PRECOOK MEATBALLS.
  • Combine jelly, chili sauce, soy sauce and ginger in a large deep skillet or serving pan over low heat.
