Playoff Meatballs

Ingredients

• 2 pounds ground beef
• 2 eggs
• 3/4 cup instant oatmeal
• 3 tablespoons dried minced onion
• 3/4 cup shredded mild Cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 (12 ounce) bottle barbeque sauce

Directions

In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, eggs, oatmeal, onion, Cheddar cheese, ketchup, salt, and pepper using your hands. Form into tiny meatballs about 1 inch wide.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs, and cook, turning frequently, until browned, about 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the meatballs to a baking dish. Cover with barbeque sauce.

Bake for 30 minutes in the preheat oven, until sauce is thick and meatballs are cooked through. Serve hot.
