Deer Me!!: Deer Bacon Burger Meatballs

Pregnancy craving: Meatballs
Solution: Look to the freezer full of deer bacon burger mix

This was my first attempt, and I used a stand by meatball recipe with minor adjustments.

2 lbs Deer Bacon Burger Mix
1 cup Parmesan Romano Cheese Blend
1 cup Plain Bread Crumbs
2 Large Eggs
1 tbsp Olive Oil, or oil you have on hand. I used a mix with grapeseed.
1 tbsp Italian Seasoning
2 tsp Minced Garlic

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Thaw meat. Mix dry ingredients - cheese, bread crumbs, Italian Seasoning.  Add wet ingredients to dry mixture.  Mix together well by hand.  Form into tablespoon sized balls.  Cook for 12 minutes or until meat is cooked through.  Optional: Simmer cooked meatballs in marinara sauce before serving.  Serve over pasta, subs, or some other fun way.

Makes approximately 60 meatballs.


So my least favorite part of meatballs and meatloaf are the messy hands after mixing.  That is the moment when I really appreciate my Delta Touch faucet.  It was a splurge early in the building process before the budget started to crunch.  The Delta Touch faucets don't always work. Our plumber installed three, and ours was the only one that worked out of that initial batch.  I understand Delta is great about replacing the non-working units, and, more than likely, they probably have many of those kinks worked out now.  Ours has been installed for about a year and a half, with no problems.  The best part is watching our friends and family figure out how to work it.  When we had our reunion last summer, our whole group snickered while watching the last person to arrive trying to operate it.
