Comfort Meatballs(The Pioneer Woman)

• Meatballs
• 1 1/2 lbs ground beef
• 3/4 cup quick oats
• 1 cup milk (can use non dairy)
• 3 tablespoons very finely minced onions
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• plenty ground black pepper
• 4 tablespoons canola oil
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• Sauce
• 1 cup ketchup
• 4 -6 tablespoons minced onions
• 3 tablespoons distilled white vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
• 2 tablespoons sugar (brown sugar is good)
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 dash hot sauce, such as Tabasco

1. For the meatballs: In bowl, combine the ground beef and oats. Pour in the milk, and then add the onions, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Roll the mixture into tablespoon-size balls and refrigerate them for 30 to 45 minutes to firm.
2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
3. Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Dredge the meatballs in the flour, and then brown the meatballs in batches until light brown. As they brown, place them into a rectangular baking dish.
4. For the sauce: Stir together the ketchup, onions, vinegar, sugar, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce. Drizzle the sauce evenly on the meatballs.
5. Bake until bubbly and hot, about 45 minutes.
