Ingredients
  • 1½ pounds ground beef
  • ½ pound sausage (we used linguica)-chopped small
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup bread crumbs
  • 1 Tablespoon parsley
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1 Tablespoon garlic powder
  • 2 Tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 Tablespoon mustard
  • For the sauce:
  • grease and bits from the baking pan (about 3 tablespoons)
  • 3 Tablespoons flour
  • 2 beef bouillon cubes
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup sour cream
Instructions
  1. Combine all ingredients together. roll into 2 inch balls and place on a baking sheet. Bake in 350 degree oven for 15 – 20 minutes, turning half way through cook time. Do not throw away the grease!
  2. set your stove top to medium heat
  3. pour the grease from the baking pan into a 12 inch skillet.
  4. Whisk in the flour to form a roux Continue stirring about 3 – 4 minutes to cook out some of the flour taste.
  5. Reduce heat to low. Slowly add in 2 cups of water whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Add in your bouillon cubes. Let simmer for about 5 minutes until it has thickened. Stir in your sour cream and add your meatballs to the sauce.
  6. Let this simmer for 10 minutes just so the meatballs soak up some of that yummy goodness from the sauce.
