Lynette'S Meatballs
- 2 1/2 lbs ground beef
- 1 (1 1/4 ounce) package Lipton Onion Soup Mix
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup plain dried breadcrumbs (canister)
- 1 (12 ounce) bottle Heinz Chili Sauce
- 1 cup brown sugar (lightly packed)
- 1 (14 ounce) can Ocean Spray whole cranberry sauce
- 1 (14 ounce) can franks brand sauerkraut (Do Not drain)
- Heat oven to 250*F.
- Thoroughly mix ingredients 1-4 in a large bowl.
- Start to roll 1" balls and place in a un-greased baking pan (I like to use the large rectangle, disposable aluminium pans because it does get very sticky, and I hate the clean up). Place balls side by side (single layer) in baking dish until you run out of meatballs.
- Thoroughly mix ingredients 5-8 in a separate bowl until brown sugar dissolves. Pour the sauce over the meatballs in the baking pan (toss to coat) and bake UN-COVERED for 2 hours -- really! Stir every 30 minutes, but remain in a single layer.
- Stir balls again and place in crock-pot on "warm" and put out a slotted spoon with tooth picks on the side.
- DO NOT tell anyone what is in the recipe until after they try them! I've had many that would not try 'em because of the ingredients!
- *Note: I have made a batch of these and divided the balls and sauce between a few smaller disposable pie pans, without baking, covered and froze. I write the temp and time to be baked on them and have given them away or saved for our own use later on.
- Enjoy!
