By CheeseDiva

Ingredients

• 2 large eggs
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 cup dry bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 pounds ground beef
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 3/4 cup ketchup
• 1/2 cup honey
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine eggs and milk. Add the bread crumbs, onion and salt. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into 1-in. balls. Place on greased racks in shallow baking pans. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 12-15 minutes or until meat is no longer pink.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, saute garlic in butter until tender. Stir in the ketchup, honey and soy sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain meatballs; add to sauce. Carefully stir to evenly coat. Cook for 5-10 minutes.
Yield: 5-1/2 dozen.
