[email protected]These meatballs were a disaster! The sauce was too thick and the meatballs were dry. I would not recommend this recipe.

[email protected]These meatballs were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would probably reduce the amount of brown sugar next time.

[email protected]I love these meatballs! They are always a crowd-pleaser. I usually double the recipe because they disappear so quickly.

[email protected]These meatballs were so easy to make and they turned out great! I used ground turkey instead of beef and they were still very flavorful. The sauce was also delicious.

[email protected]I made these meatballs last night and they were delicious! The sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and sour, and the meatballs were cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making these again.
