Meatballs that wind up looking like little pokey porcupines! I decided to post our version of these great meatballs since none of the others were "quite" right. UPDATE: I have frozen these with the sauce and uncooked meatballs together, then placed frozen in the crockpot on low for 5-6 hours and it worked great!

Steps:
- Combine meat, rice, onion and salt. Form into 1-2 inch meatballs.
- Place in a single layer in a deep baking dish.
- Combine soup, water, and Worcestershire sauce.
- Pour over meatballs (meatballs should be mostly covered).
- Bake covered for 1 1/2 hours at 350 degrees, or until rice is tender. (Takes about an hour if using white long grain rice, takes up to 2 hours if using brown rice). *You may want to stir partway through if meatballs aren't completely covered, to allow all of the rice to absorb some liquid*.
- Note for freezer cooking: Flash freeze raw meatballs. Place in ziploc bag when frozen. Freeze soup mixture separately in another ziploc bag. When ready to cook, thaw both meat and soup (will need to re-stir soup because it separates), then combine into baking pan to bake.

[email protected]These meatballs were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might have overcooked them. But the flavor was still good. I would try them again, but I would cook them for less time.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of meatballs, but I tried these and they were actually really good! The rice and beef mixture was really moist and flavorful, and the tomato sauce was tangy and delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

[email protected]I've made these meatballs several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. I like to serve them with mashed potatoes and gravy, but they're also great on their own. They're also really easy to make, which is a big plus for me. Thanks for sharing

[email protected]These meatballs were a hit! My family loved them and they were so easy to make. I made a few substitutions based on what I had on hand, and they still turned out great. I used ground turkey instead of beef, and added some chopped mushrooms and carrot
