ANGELA'S FAMOUS MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Combine all of the meatball ingredients in large bowl until well mixed. Shape into small balls and place on buttered casserole dish in single layer. Bake until lightly browned on bottom of balls then stir around and bake a few minutes longer until firm. Time will depend on the size of the balls. approximately 20 minutes to 1/2 hour.
• While the meat is baking, put all Sauce ingredients in large pot and simmer. When the meatballs are finished baking, carefully scoop them out with a slotted spoon and put into sauce. Gently stir until well coated and heated through. At this point you can serve immediately or put in Crockpot for a party and keep them warm on a low setting. Enjoy!

FAMOUS MEATBALLS

• Combine ingredients for meatballs, rolling meatballs out by hand and placing in a 9x13-inch pan.
• Combine ingredients for sauce and pour over meatballs. (I've never timed how long it takes me to do this, I just estimated time without distractions ;).
• Cover pan with aluminum foil and place in a 350° oven for 45 minutes.
• Uncover and put back into oven for 15 additional minutes (note--I have also sprinkled about a cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top for the remaining 15 minutes and it turned out good).
• An extra note on the sauce, I usually double my sauce, however I do not double the vinegar, that's how my family enjoys it, you can fix them anyway you wish, it is a good dish to experiment with. You can also fix these in a crock pot on low heat over night.

• After the ingredients are mixed, start to roll the meatballs in your hands, about 6 ounces per meatball.
