This is an Easy but GOOD Snack!
1 lb. Bag Of Hormel Meatballs
(or you can make your own)
Place one layer deep into a Casserole Dish
Pour "VELVET GOURMET" Garlic or Hickory
BBQ Sauce over the Meatballs
Take a fork and rotate each Meatball so it is
covered with BBQ Sauce
Heat Oven to 350 place into the oven and
Cook for 30 minutes so Sauce is thick and
meatballs are warmed completely through.
Great for a Meatball Sandwich or set them
on the table with some tooth picks and
watch them disappear! I originally made
them with Hickory but now I make them with
Garlic. They are good either way.
As Always, Enjoy
