Gluten Free Meatballs

Ingredients
  

Meatballs

  • 4 lbs ground beef I used ground sirloin, my dad uses ground chuck
  • 1/4 c chopped onion
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 c gluten-free beer OPTIONAL
  • 1 tbsp garlic salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 pkg gluten-free onion soup mix I used Riega
  • 2 c gluten-free corn flake crumbs

Sauce

  • 3 c ketchup
  • 3 c grape jelly
  • 1/4 c bbq sauce I prefer Stubb's

Instructions
 

  • Line cookie sheet with tinfoil and coat with cooking spray. 
  • Mix ingredients in large bowl with fork or potato masher. (You can mix with your hands as well. If so, I highly suggest removing rings first.) 
  • Using a 1 oz (#40) scoop, gather a portion of the gluten-free meatball mixture. Drop in the palm of your hands and roll into a ball.
  • Bake gluten-free meatballs in the oven, one sheet at a time, at 350 for 15 minutes. I highly suggest flipping them after 7 minutes.
  • Remove baked meatballs from cookie sheet and place in crockpot or dish with lid. Repeat until all meatballs are cooked.
  • In a medium sauce pan, combine ketchup, grape jelly and barbecue sauce. (The barbecue sauce is optional, but I highly suggest it to cut the sweetness of the sauce.) Cook until jelly melts completely. Allow to cool. 
  • Finally, layer cooked meatballs and sauce in slow cooker. Cook on low heat for at least 4 hours. Stir occasionally so sauce does not burn.
