Original Recipe Yield 38 meatballs
 

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds ground beef
  • 2 (1 ounce) packages dry onion soup mix
  • 3 slices white bread
  • 2 tablespoons half-and-half
  • 1 (28 ounce) bottle ketchup
  • 1 cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Remove the crusts from the white bread and tear into small bread crumbs. In a medium size mixing bowl, combine beef, soup mix, white bread crumbs and half-and-half cream. Roll mixture into 1 inch balls and arrange in 9x13 inch baking dishes (as many baking dishes as it takes or bake the meatballs in shifts).
  3. Bake 10 to 15 minutes; or until browned.
  4. In a slow cooker with the temperature set to high, mix together ketchup, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until the mixture comes to a boil, then reduce temperature to low until you are ready to serve the meatballs.
  5. Place the meatballs in the sauce and serve.
