Italian Meatball Sliders
Perfect for Super Bowl Sunday! Or your next day sail!
Ingredients
Meatballs
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 2 Garlic cloves, pressed or minced
- 1/2 Onion, minced
- 1 tsp Hot pepper flakes
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 cup Bread crumbs
- 1/3 cup Milk
- 1 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
- 1 tbsp Brown sugar
Buns, Sauce & Cheese
- 12 Dinner rolls or Knot rolls
- 2 cups Spaghetti sauce
- 2 cups Shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Chop the onions, mince or press the garlic. Mix all meatball ingredients in a large bowl. Best done with your hands! Form into balls slightly larger than golf balls (depending on the size of your buns.)
- Fry in a large skillet until cooked through, turning frequently. Add the spaghetti sauce and continue to cook for 10 minutes. Light your galley oven and warm to about 350ยบ.
- Cut holes out of the 12 buns. I found it easiest to cut an "X" across the tops first then cut out the rest of the hole. Place the meatballs in the bun holes.
- Pour a little sauce on the tops of each meatball. Sprinkle the shredded and grated cheese on top. We had a vegetarian on board today so I made a few just filled with sauce and cheese. Place in your pre-heated oven and bake for 15 minutes or until cheese has melted. Serve hot or warm.
