I’ve made these twice now. The meatballs themselves are very good, but the sauce doesn’t work so well for my family. The first time I used Heinz ketchup, and the sauce came out extremely sweet. The second time I tried an organic ketchup made with sugar instead of corn syrup. The sauce was more balanced with a better tang, but still very sweet. Next time I’m going to try not adding the 2 Tbsp of sugar and see if it’s the right balance of sweet and tangy for us.

I loved these and all of the men around adored them! Definitely a hit at our parties.

I made these a few nights ago and they were a huge hit in my house of picky eaters. My 6yo who rarely makes a fuss about food went on and on about how good they were, even saying they were TOO good.

I made these for the first time last night and they were AWESOME! They were also very easy. We had friends over and everyone loved them! Even my super picky husband told me to add them to the rotation! A hit!!

I adore these! My husband (who doesn’t like meatloaf or meatballs) isn’t a fan, but I can’t get enough. Perfect with creamy mashed potatoes on a cold evening.

Made these tonight and there are absolutely none left! My husband is taking what was left for leftovers tomorrow. He is a Paramedic and sometimes has a hard time heating up his meals so he RARELY does this. I did make a slight change and it was mainly because I am lazy! I did not freeze the meatballs or dredge them in flour. They still turned out absolutely amazing! Sweet and tangy. Highly recommend you try them.

These were really good. Honestly I didn’t know what to expect because it seemed like there was a ton of sugar in this recipe (between the ketchup and the white sugar) but it tasty wonderful! Next time I probably will omit the 2 tbl. of sugar. I also used ground turkey instead of beef and added a tbl. of BBQ sauce just for extra flavor and quite a few dashes of Tabasco sauce. This was a very yummy recipe and so easy to make!

These turned out wonderful, especially with your mashed potatoes!

I loved these! I made them for dinner last night and I’ve been thinking about the leftovers all day. My husband hates meatloaf and I hoped that by calling these “barbecue meatballs” there would be hope, but no, too much like meatloaf for him. oh well – I’ll have no problem eating them for days

I made these for dinner, tonight, and they were soooooo good!!!! Both my husband and my son loved them! I got the recipe out of your cookbook (which I love) and will be making them a lot! Great recipe!

My family LOVES these! (Just make sure you give yourself enough prep time!)

Oh.My.Gawd. these were fantastic! It made a huge amount of meatballs so I made 1/2 tonight (which is enough for 2 meals since there are only two of us), froze the other 1/2 and will just make another batch of sauce for them.

I hate saying this, because I really love Ree’s recipes, but this is the only recipe I’ve ever tried of hers that I did not enjoy and neither did anyone in my family. My husband doesn’t like bbq sauce and I’ve noticed as I’ve become older I’ve lost my taste for it. So, it’s not a very fair comment, but I would like to point out, that if you’re not a huge fan of bbq sauce, then you might be disappointed. It’s a very bbq-ish dish as you can see by the title!

I made these meatballs for dinner tonight, and they were completely fantastic. I cannot stop thinking about them. Seriously… best meatballs ever!
The only thing I did differently from the recipe was to brown the meatballs immediately after rolling without refrigerating them and dredging in flour… and I was still more than happy with the flavor and texture of the finished recipe.
YUM!

I just … can’t accurately describe how FANTASTIC these were. I made them last night and have been thinking about them all day. This is the first recipe on here where I wish there were an option for 6 mitts because these deserve SO much praise. I hate meatballs, incidentally. But these? YUM.

YUM!!!!! This was so easy and GOOD. I served it with egg noodles and it was so hearty and comforting and delicious. Will make this one again and again!
