cajun meatballs

i was making some appetizers last night. we had a bunch of ground beef so making meatballs was perfect. this recipe i found was so easy. i used ryan's homemade barbecue sauce mixed with peach jam for this meatball sauce. such a tasty idea! mmmm

* 1 pound lean ground beef
* 1 1/2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce
* 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
* 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
* 1 tablespoon dried parsley
* 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
* 1/4 cup fresh bread crumbs
* 1/4 cup milk
* 1 egg
* 1/2 cup barbeque sauce
* 1/2 cup peach preserves

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking sheet.
2. In a large bowl, mix thoroughly the ground beef, hot pepper sauce, Cajun seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, onion, bread crumbs, milk, and egg.
3. Form the mixture into golf ball sized meatballs and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until there is no pink left in the middle.
4. In a small bowl, combine the barbeque sauce and peach preserves.
5. When meatballs are done, place in a serving dish and cover with the barbeque sauce mixture. Toss to coat.

i didn't toss the meatballs in the barbecue sauce, instead i served it on the side. i read reviews where people but the sauce in the meatballs and they said it was good too. i forgot to take a picture because we ate it right out of the oven.
