Original Recipe Yield 10 appetizer servings
 

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts, drained and finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup apricot preserves or jam
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Mix together ground beef, chestnuts, soy sauce, brown sugar, onion powder, and garlic powder thoroughly in a large bowl. Form the mixture into 2 tablespoon-sized balls, and place onto a baking sheet.
