Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  • Place the ground beef and pork in a large bowl. Add the diced jalapeños, breadcrumbs, granulated garlic, egg, onion, 1 tablespoon pepper jelly and some salt and pepper and gently fold this mixture together.
  • Using a small scoop, roll a tablespoon of the meat mixture into a ball. Place on the prepared wire rack and repeat until all of the meat has been shaped into balls. Roast the meatballs until slightly browned, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze. Combine the bloody mary mix, pomegranate juice, light brown sugar and remaining pepper jelly (about 3/4 cup) in a small saucepot. Boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the jelly has dissolved and the sauce has reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and pour into a large mixing bowl to cool. (The glaze will thicken as it cools.)
  • Transfer the hot meatballs to the large bowl with the glaze and gently toss until evenly coated. Transfer to a serving platter and garnish with the pomegranate seeds.

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet and rack
1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 pound ground pork
One 4-ounce can diced hot jalapeños, drained
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 large egg
1 small onion, finely chopped
One 10-ounce jar pepper jelly, preferably Tabasco Mild Jalapeño Pepper Jelly
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup bloody mary mix
1/4 cup pomegranate juice
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds

SWEET MEATBALL APPETIZER

These meatballs are everybody's favorite and I can't go more than a few weeks without someone requesting them. They are very versatile as they can be made with almost any kind of ground meat or poultry. One warning though; if you do not like sweet foods this is not the recipe for you. In fact if you plan on doubling this recipe I recommend that you decrease the amount of jelly somewhat. Also you can increase the amount of breadcrumbs by a few tablespoons it it seems that it's not holding together but don't overdo it or your meatballs will become hard.
