Ingredients
- ¾ pound ground beef
- ¾ pound ground turkey breast
- 1 onion grated, small
- 1 egg
- ½ cup bread crumbs Italian seasoned
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- ¾ cup ketchup reduced sugar
- ⅓ cup white vinegar
- ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
- 3 tablespoons sugar or Splenda
- 2 teaspoons mustard powder dry
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper ground
Instructions
- Combine the ground beef, ground turkey, onion, egg, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix well.
- Form 1” meatballs using approximately one tablespoon of mixture per meatball.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter and oil over medium heat.
- Brown the meatballs on all sides. Work in batches to avoid crowding the pan.
- Remove from skillet and set aside.
- Pour out any accumulated fat in skillet and wipe clean.
- Return the skillet to the heat, add the catsup, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, mustard, salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
- Return the meatballs to the pan, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes or until meatballs are cooked through.
Notes
- To make tender meatballs, 1) use a higher fat content ground beef, and 2) don't overmix the ingredients.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for 2-3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight before reheating in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave until heated through.
