Directions:

  1. Combine all ingredients and shape into 1 1/2 inch balls. Place on a lightly greased jelly roll pan or cookie sheet. Bake at 375° for 30 minutes, turning after 15 minutes.
  2. ***Sauce:
  3. 1/2 cup apple jelly
  4. 1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
  5. 1/4 cup whiskey
  6. 1 tsp each- Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco sauce
  7. Combine sauce ingredients in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Cook for one minute, then add meatballs and cook for 5 more minutes, stirring to make sure they all get coated.
  8. I find the best way to store these is in a disposable foil casserole dish (about $1-2 dollars at the grocery store).
  9. You can put them in the fridge overnight, then just toss the foil dish right on the grill on Sunday. They reheat in about 5 or 10 minutes.
  10. Serve with pretzel sticks (tastier than toothpicks, and no splinters!).*wink*
