MELINDA'S PORCUPINE MEATBALLS
This is, by far, the best recipe for porcupine meatballs I have ever had. This is a recipe that was given to my mom when she married back in 1970. The recipe also includes cooking directions for stovetop cooking or cooking in the oven. Hope you enjoy as much as our family does.

PORCUPINE MEATBALLS
These well-seasoned porcupine meatballs in a rich tomato sauce are one of my mom's best main dishes. I used to love this meal when I was growing up. I made it at home for our children, and now my daughters make it for their families. -Darlis Wilfer, West Bend, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef with the rice, water, chopped onion, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and pepper.
- Shape the ground beef mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls. Use a tablespoon or small cookie scoop to help make them uniform in size. (Or you can weigh them as you shape them.) Place them in an ungreased 2-quart shallow baking dish.
- Make the sauce by mixing together the tomato sauce, water, and Worcestershire sauce in a measuring cup or bowl.
- Now it's time to cook the meatballs. Continue reading for the oven method, or scroll down to the stovetop method.
- Pour the sauce over the porcupine meatballs, cover the baking dish tightly with foil, and bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 55 minutes.
- Uncover and bake the meatballs 15 to 20 minutes longer, until bubbling and cooked through. Serve and enjoy.
- Add about 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to a large deep skillet over medium heat.
- Add the shaped meatballs and cook, turning, until the meatballs are evenly browned. Drain and discard the drippings.
- Add the tomato sauce ingredients to the skillet and bring the mixture to a simmer. Lower the heat and cover the pan. Continue cooking for about 45 minutes. Check occasionally and add water, if necessary. Serve and enjoy.

BBQ PORCUPINE MEATBALLS
This is the version of porcupine meatballs I grew up with - it is a little different than others I have seen on Zaar in that it has BBQ sauce in the sauce. This is my comfort food. I serve the meatballs on top of mac and cheese and eat it all together. Make a double batch and freeze the extra. I hope you enjoy!
