Asian-inspired sweet and sour meatballs with water chestnuts and green onions, a long-held family favorite now revealed after 20 years. Perfect for Christmas or any occasion!
Ingredients:
  • 5 pounds bulk Italian sausage
  • 2 (8 ounce) cans water chestnuts, drained and chopped
  • 2 bunches green onion, chopped
  • 0.5 cup soy sauce
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 2.5 cups fine dry bread crumbs
  • 1.25 cups white sugar
  • 6 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 cups white vinegar
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • soy sauce to taste
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a large bowl, combine sausage, chestnuts, green onion, 1/2 cup soy sauce, eggs, garlic powder, and breadcrumbs. Roll into 1 to 1 1/2 inch balls, then transfer onto a broiler pan. Bake for 1 hour. Once cooked, transfer the meatballs to a slow cooker.
  • As the meatballs cook, make the sweet and sour sauce by combining sugar and cornstarch in a large saucepan. Add vinegar, pineapple juice, ketchup, and soy sauce to your liking. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then simmer on low until the sauce thickens. Pour over the meatballs and keep warm in the slow cooker.
