Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 lb andouille sausage
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion
2 garlic cloves
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 lb ground beef
vegetable cooking spray
salt and pepper
1 1/3 cups mayonnaise
6 scallions
3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup lemon juice (fresh is best)
3 tablespoons mustard (grainy is best)
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons horseradish sauce
2 tablespoons chili sauce

Steps:

  • Chop the onion and scallions. Mince the garlic. Remove casings from sausages (if necessary). Cut sausage into chunks and chop finely in a food processor.
  • In a small mixing bowl, prepare the remoulade sauce by mixing the mayonnaise, chopped scallions, 3 cloves chopped garlic, lemon juice, mustard, parsley, horseradish sauce, and chili sauce. Whisk well and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Heat the oil in a small skillet and add the onions and 2 cloves chopped garlic. Sautee for about 3 minutes or until onion is translucent.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the egg, milk and Worcestershire sauce. Add the breadcrumbs and cheese and mix well.
  • Add the onion mixture, chopped sausage, and ground beef to the bowl, season with salt and pepper, and mix well.
  • Divide mixture into 8-12 sausage-shaped portions. Insert a metal skewer into each portion so that the tip of the skewer is almost at the top of the meat. Bamboo skewers may be used but should be soaked well in cold water first.
  • Prepare a medium-hot grill. Grill skewers for 6-8 minutes, uncovered if using a charcoal grill. Turn gently using tongs to cook all sides.

I made these meatballs for my family, and they were a big hit! Everyone loved them. The meatballs were moist and flavorful, and the Cajun seasoning gave them a nice kick. I will definitely be making these again.

These meatballs were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add some more liquid to the mixture next time. Other than that, they were very flavorful and I enjoyed them.

I'm not a big fan of Cajun food, but I decided to give these meatballs a try anyway. I'm glad I did! The meatballs were delicious, and the Cajun seasoning was not too overpowering. I will definitely be making these again.

I had some leftover mashed potatoes, so I used them to make these meatballs. They turned out great! The mashed potatoes made the meatballs extra moist and flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

These meatballs were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best meatballs he's ever had. I will definitely be making these again, but I will use less Cajun seasoning next time.

These meatballs were easy to make and turned out great. I used ground turkey instead of beef, and they were still very flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.

I love the combination of flavors in these meatballs. The Cajun seasoning gives them a nice spice, while the cheddar cheese mellows it out. I also like that they are grilled, which gives them a nice smoky flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly and the meatballs turned out perfectly. They were cooked through but still moist, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I served them with a side of mashed potatoes and gravy, and they were a delicious comfort food meal.
