This is a crockpot recipe. It has lots of sweet and sour sauce...Yum!!! It looks pretty with meatballs and pineapple chunks. I like to serve it with a crunchy vegetable saute. I almost always use venison in this recipe because the meat is so lean. This is one of dh's favorite foods!
Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef or 1 lb venison
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
1 tablespoon canola oil
6 tablespoons white vinegar
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
6 tablespoons cornstarch
1 (15 ounce) can pineapple chunks, undrained
1/2 cup pineapple juice
Directions:
1. Combine meat, egg, salt, pepper, 1 tablespoons cornstarch, and onion (I use a kitchenaid mixer).
2. Shape into 1 1/2 inch balls.
3. Brown in oil in a heavy skillet.
4. Transfer to a crock pot.
5. Mix sauce ingredients: vinegar, sugar, soy sauce and corn starch in a small bowl.
6. Pour over meatballs.
7. Cook on low 6-8 hours or high 2-4, depending how thick you want the sauce, stirring several times.
8. During the last 30 minutes of cooking, add the undrained pineapple and pineapple juice.
9. Serve over rice.
