I'd like to make Meatballs with BBQ sauce, and, hopefully, include within the meatballs a uniquely BBQ taste.. Any suggestions on how I can make this from scratch?

Thanks!

Ingredients:-

* 450g or 1lb lean minced beef
* 225g or 陆lb good pork sausauge meat
* 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs
* 1 small red pepper finely chopped
* 1 small onion finely chopped
* 1 clove garlic crushed
* Handful flat leaf parsley chopped
* Handful basil chopped
* 1tablespoon tomato pur茅e
* Salt and pepper to taste

Flour for coating the barbecue meatballs and oil for frying

For the sauce

* 1 onion chopped
* 2 tablespoons oil
* 50g or 2oz light brown sugar
* 1 heaped teaspoon English mustard
* 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
* 2 tablespoons tomato pur茅e
* 300ml or 陆 pint water
* Freshly ground salt and pepper

Method:-

Pre-heat the oven to 180掳C, 350掳F or gas mark 4. Throw all the meatball ingredients into a mixing bowl and set to it. Don鈥檛 be afraid to get your fingers in and really scrunch it all together! Once mixed form your meatballs ready for flouring and frying. Roll the meatballs in the flour and place them in the frying pan until browned all over. For the barbecue sauce recipe, fry the onion in the oil for 3-4 minutes until translucent, then add the tomato pur茅e and fry for another minute. Then add the remainder of the ingredients and stir until thoroughly mixed. Transfer the barbecue meatballs to a casserole, pour over the barbecue sauce and place in the oven for 60 minutes|||When I make homemade BBQ sauce, I don't necessarily measure stuff. But, I can give you what I put in it and you can judge what flavors you like so you can add more of less of ingredients. It always turns out BTW...

Catsup
Molasses
Soy Sauce
Onions (dried or fresh chopped)
Prepared Mustard
Garlic
Liquid Smoke
Maple Syrup

And I just mix it up and it turns out pretty good - better than store bought.

Good luck.

Oh, if you want a sweet and sour sauce for your meatballs, I have friends that use 1/2 catsup with 1/2 grape jelly.|||BBQ sauce?

What a misguided concept!

The idea of a bar-be-que is to cook something over charcoal, not to pour a sauce over cooked meat. I have tasted 'BBQ sauces' and can see absolutely no resemblence to any barby I have ever cooked.


The whole concept reminds me of putting a 'Go faster' stripe on a Lada. It doesn't make it go any better.

The sauce detracts from the flavour of the food - don't do it!
