Beef Meatballs Recipe

Updated: Jun 12



Ingredients:

  • 1.5 tablespoon of Summa Salt’s Vampire Killer

  • 1 lb  80/20 ground chuck

  • 1 cup Italian bread crumbs

  • 3 large eggs

  • Splash of milk (about ¼ cup)

  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

  • 1/4 cup grated yellow onion, sauteed in olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1 tablespoon of minced garlic

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

  1. Mix the Ingredients:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Italian bread crumbs, oregano, eggs, Summa Salt’s Vampire Killer and a splash of milk to keep the meatballs moist. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste (a few cracks will do).

  • Sautee the grated yellow onion in a swirl of olive oil until fragrant. Let cool and then add to the meat mixture.

  1. Combine Thoroughly:

  • Use your hands or a wooden spoon to gently mix all the ingredients. Ensure everything is evenly distributed throughout the meat mixture. Do NOT overmix or meatballs will be crumbly and tough.

  1. Form Meatballs:

  • Take a portion of the mixture (about 2 tablespoons) and roll it between your hands to form a smooth ball. Roll all of the meat mixture. 

  • Place the formed meatballs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. Cover and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.

  1. Bake the Meatballs:

  • Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake the meatballs for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and browned on the outside, flipping them over halfway.

  • If you prefer, you can also pan-fry the meatballs in a skillet with a little oil over medium heat until they are browned on all sides and cooked through.

  1. Serve with Strawberry Jalapeno Jam:

  • Once cooked, remove the meatballs from the oven or skillet and let them rest for a few minutes. Pour jam over the meatballs.
