Ingredients
Serves 6
- 2 pounds Certified Akaushi Beef ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/3 cup onion diced
- 1/3 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce
- 1/2 cup ground plain pork rinds (grind until the consistency of bread crumbs)
- 1 large beaten egg
- 1/4 cup milk
- 3 heaping tablespoons rub seasoning
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt
- Preheat your grill and place on “smoke” setting (about 180 degrees F).
- Spray two baking racks with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- Gather and combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, using your hands to mix well.
- Shape the meatball mixture into 1- to 2-inch meatballs. It is important that the meatballs are close to the same size, so they cook evenly.
- Place the meatballs on the baking racks so they are not touching. Once all your meatballs are on the baking racks, sprinkle the top of each meatball with a little extra seasoning rub. Then place them onto the grill.
- Smoke (or “Super Smoke” if your grill has that setting) the meatballs at about 180 degrees F for 30 minutes. After the smoke time is up, turn your grill up to 350 degrees F and cook the meatballs until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Remove from grill, serve immediately and enjoy!
