MacKenzie Posted January 9, 2016 Report Posted January 9, 2016 I had to get my strength up for the meatball cook so I made some Buttermilk Pancakes for breakfast. Served with local maple syrup. Now onto the meatballs. 1 pound of 50/50 mix of beef and pork. Added minced garlic, minced onion, salt, pepper, basil, thyme, parmesan cheese, cayenne pepper, milk and bread crumbs. Mix everything together except the meat. Once things are nicely mixed gently add the meat and mix it in. Carefully make the meatballs being careful not to compact. Roll in crumbs and set in the fridge until the grill is up to 350F. Grilled for about 30 mins. until the internal temp. was 162F. Meatballs are done. Plated. The meatballs were tender and moist.
tinyfish Posted January 9, 2016 Report Posted January 9, 2016 You had me with the pancakes...yum yum. Another fine cook. Pasta and meatballs makes for a great dinner.
Rak Posted January 9, 2016 Report Posted January 9, 2016 That looks great! And you can't beat pancakes with maple syrup!
tony b Posted January 9, 2016 Report Posted January 9, 2016 Another hit, MacKenzie. Your batting 1.000 in my book!!
MacKenzie Posted January 9, 2016 Author Report Posted January 9, 2016 Thanks, to all the Tony's out there. I have a big pot of pasta/pizza sauce on the stove as I write. One never wants to be in a position of not having any sauce on hand. 2
tony b Posted January 10, 2016 Report Posted January 10, 2016 I didn't even bother to ask whether you made that sauce or not, I just knew!!
