BEEF MEATBALLS IN TOMATO SAUCE

  • Ingredients

    Serves 4-6

    For Pizza Dough :

    2 lbs Ground Beef
    1 Onion, Finely Chopped
    2 Garlic Cloves, Grated
    2 Tbs Italian Seasoning
    1 Tbs Worcestershire sauce
    2 Tbs Olive Oil, Plus More For Cooking
    2 14 oz Cans Chopped Tomatoes
    Splash of White/Red Wine (Optional)
    1 Chili, Finely Chopped (Optional)
    Salt & Pepper
    2 Tsp Brown Sugar

    Method

    • Place ground beef, onion, garlic, Italian seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix together with the olive oil.
    • Portion and roll the ground beef into small meatballs.

    Prepare your COBB Grill and light a CobbleStone and wait a few minutes until it has turned grey. Or, if you don’t have a CobbleStone on hand, ready your briquettes. Place Fry Dish and Dome Lid on COBB Grill and let heat up for at least 5 minutes.

    • Heat the oil in the Wok and place the meatballs in to evenly brown on each side, make sure not to overcrowd them.
    • Remove the meatballs and set aside.
    • Tip the cans of tomatoes into the Wok and add in the chili, brown sugar, and a splash of wine.
    • Give it a good stir and cover with the Dome Lid to cook for 10 minutes.
    • Remove the Lid and add the meatballs back in.
    • Let it simmer, stirring occasionally for another 10 minutes with the Lid still off. 
    • Season to taste and serve.
