Mom's Meatballs

My friend Kelly Carr brought these to our house when Audrey was born. The other night, after I made MY recipe of meatballs, Austin informed me that he “really liked those meatballs that Kelly brought to us.” So…out goes my recipe and in comes Kelly’s! Here’s Kelly’s recipe. She said her mom used to make a huge batch and freeze them, for those of you wanting some freezer-friendly meals.

3 lb. ground beef
1 (12 oz.) can evaporated milk
2 cups chopped or minced onion
2 cups quick oats
2 eggs
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tsp. garlic salt
½ tsp. black pepper

Mix together and form into balls. Bake on cookie sheets at 350 until done.

Sauce:

1 cup ketchup
1 cup BBQ sauce
2 tsp. liquid smoke
½ tsp. garlic salt

Mix together sauce ingredients & brush onto meatballs. Broil for 3-5 minutes.
