Sweet Meatballs

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups milk
2 cups bread crumbs (unseasoned)
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
12 ounces beer (lager)

Preparation

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2
Start with the sauce. Combine brown sugar, chili sauce and beer (mixture will foam when you add the beer).
3
Mix well and set aside.
4
Combine meat, eggs, milk, bread crumbs, mustard and nutmeg in a large mixing bowl.
5
Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed. I've found it is easiest to use your hands for this.
6
Place flour in a small bowl.
7
Form meat into ~1 1/4" balls.
8
Roll each ball in the flour and shake off any excess.
9
Place meatballs in two un-greased 9" x 13" baking pans.
10
Pour sauce evenly over all of the meatballs.
11
Bake at 350 degrees for 25 - 30 minutes.
12
Turn each meatball over and bake another 25 - 30 min. or until meat is fully cooked.
13
Sauce will thicken as it cools.

About

Depending on the pans you use and the size of your meatballs, it might be a tight fit to get them all in the pans. This is ok, the meatballs will shrink as they cook.
While they are probably intended as an appetizer, these meatballs make a good main course when served over white rice.
The meatballs freeze very well.
