Shane's Sweet And Sour Meatballs (my Version)

Total Time: 1 hr 15 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

  • Servings: 15
  • 1 (24 -32 ounce) package frozen mini meatballs, pre-cooked, thawed
  • 2 (8 ounce) cans pineapple chunks, drained, juice reserved
  • 1/2 cup dijon mustard (really that much)
  • 1 medium onion, diced (red or )
  • 1/2 cup green onion, chopped
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 (36 ounce) bottle ketchup
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons black pepper (yes, that much)
  • 2 tablespoons pineapple juice (from the can)

Recipe

  • 1 preheat oven to 350 degrees f.
  • 2 in deep non-greased baking pan, add enough thawed meatballs to fill the pan full in one even layer.
  • 3 top the meatballs with the pineapple chunks, saving all of the juice from the pineapple in a separate bowl.
  • 4 in a medium bowl, mix together the mustard, red and green onion, and garlic, then spread this on top of the meatballs & pineapple.
  • 5 in a saucepot, mix 2 tbsp of the reserved pineapple juice (save the rest for later in the recipe), ketchup, vinegar, water, worcestershire sauce, and black pepper, mixing all ingredients together.
  • 6 cook on high heat for 2 minutes and stir, do not leave the pan or it might burn (not to mention blooop and spurt and bubble and make a mess).
  • 7 cook another 3 to 4 minutes,stirring the whole time, take it off the heat and continue to stir for 2 minutes.
  • 8 pour the sweet and sour sauce over the meatballs and bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
  • 9 remove from the oven; add the remaining pineapple juice, stir to combine, and return to oven for another 30 minutes.
