Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, use your hands to combine the ground beef with the bread crumbs, onion, eggs, salt, and pepper. Use a small cookie scoop or tablespoon to make the meat into 1-inch balls. Lightly roll the balls between the palms of your hands and set them on a baking sheet or cutting board.
  2. Mix the chili sauce or ketchup with the sugar, water, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Pour into a large skillet and warm over low heat.
  3. In a large non-stick skillet, bring the oil to medium heat and add the meatballs in batches, making sure not to overcrowd them. Move the meatballs around right away so they brown evenly and don't get flat sides. Cook the meatballs for 4-5 minutes until browned on all sides then transfer to the skillet with BBQ sauce and cover with a lid. Repeat with the remaining meatballs. Simmer for 10 minutes, covered. Add 1-2 tablespoons more water to thin the sauce if needed.
  4. Serve warm or at room temperature.
