Happy Friday! With the weekends comes some extra socializing or entertaining, right? Maybe you’ll be hosting the Sunday dinner or attending a church pot luck. Being raised in a pastors home, my mom was quite the entertainer and served up some delicious dishes. One of my all time favorites when we were entertaining a crowd was meatball subs. I would have to say that they are still one of my faves, even if I don’t eat them very often.
Well, friends — I have a fantastic recipe to share with you today. So simple, it will take you about 30 minutes to make and so savory that you’re sure to have your family and friends coming back for more! Prepare yourself for the tastiest Sweet BBQ Meatballs you could imagine using the KC Masterpiece® Kansas City Classic barbecue sauce, a limited-edition anniversary sauce to celebrate the brands 35th anniversary. The sauce combined with a few other ingredients made for a perfectly delectable dish!
You most likely have most of these ingredients in your pantry and/or refrigerator. 10-15 minutes prep and 16 minutes in the oven, you’ll be ready to go! They taste so good, your guests will think you slaved in the kitchen all day!
