Homemade Meatballs with Cranberry Chili Sauce! 
Be the star at your next potluck with this recipe!



Meatballs

3 lbs Ground beef
2 Tbsp Salt
2 tsp Ground Black Pepper
2 Eggs
1 Small Onion 
3 Cloves Garlic
2 Slices of Bread 
1/2 Cup Milk
1/4 Cup Parmesan Cheese

Cranberry Glaze Sauce

2 Cans Whole Berry Jellied Cranberries
2 Bottles Chili Sauce
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
2 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
Green Onions for Garnish


INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line baking sheet with tinfoil. Put Ground Beef in a big enough bowl to mix ingredients in. Add salt, pepper, eggs and Parmesan into bowl. In a blender, puree onion and garlic together and add to the meat mixture. In separate bowl, tear up bread and add the milk to it. Wait until it is totally soggy (about a minute) then squeeze the milk out of the bread (I use my hands) and add it to the bowl. Mix the meat and ingredients together with hands until everything is really combined. Form the meat mix into balls, I do around the size of a ping pong ball. Put onto baking sheet. I usually add a metal cooling rack on top of the pan to bake them, to strain the oil down. Bake for 40 minutes. When they are done, add them to a crock pot.

Sauce Instructions

Add all ingredients into sauce pan and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Once it is all incorporated, pour over the meatballs and gently stir to coat. 

These will be a HIT at your next pot luck!

OUR BETTER THAN FAST FOOD ONION RINGS

Onion Rings 4 Large White Onions 6 Cups Unbleached Flour 3 Tablespoons Salt 3 teaspoons of Garlic Powder 1 1/2 teaspoons of Black Pepper 2 1/2 teaspoons of Paprika 4 Large Eggs 1/2 Cup Milk Canola or Vegetable Oil for frying These are the BEST homemade onion rings. Not much batter, light, crispy and delicious. It seems like it would be overwhelming, but actually it is well worth the time. Start out with 4 large white onions. We have found these work the best.  They have a really great flavor. Next, slice them up. If you do them a little on the thin side, they cook up really nicely and are a perfect consistency. When you slice them, only keep the bigger rings. The middle pieces are not as good for the rings. I usually only keep the first 4 to 5 outer rings and toss the rest. Next, add the seasonings to the flour. I have 3 bowls that I set up for flour and wet ingredients. The first bowl will have ...

Butter Biscuits

Delicious Butter Biscuits Ingredients: 1/2 cup butter (1 stick); room temperature  4 tsp sugar 2 tsp salt 3 cups of flour 4 tsp baking powder 1 1/3 cups milk Instructions Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Add flour and butter into the mixer and mix until butter is pea size. Add the sugar, salt, baking powder and mix until combined.  Last, add milk to the flour mixture and mix until combined.

Repeat until you have folded the dough back onto itself at least 6 times.  Even if it seems thin, it will rise. After it has been rolled out multiple times, use a biscuit cutter or a cup about the size you want your biscuits to be. (I actually use a kids IKEA ...

Party Chili Cheese Dip

In our experience, if you bring this Chili Cheese Dip to a party, you will NEVER bring any leftovers home! CHILI CHEESE DIP INGREDIENTS 2 pkg cream cheese, softened 1 family size can of Stagg Chili (or whatever chili you prefer) 1 Large bag of shredded cheddar cheese Green Onion  Sliced Olives  Preheat oven to 350. In baking sheet (we use a 9x13) smear cream cheese evenly over the bottom of the pan.   Top with the chili (stir chili inside can to begin with so you don't have excess liquid and it is all incorporated) spread chili evenly over the cream cheese.  Top that with enough shredded cheeses to completely cover the chili. On top of cheese add green onion and olives to taste. Bake in 350 degrees oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until cheese is completely melted. Serve warm with Frito Scoops.
