Owww…..in all the hectic of this week I almost forgot that Saturday is International Bacon Day! How could I forget…even though I think it should be Bacon Day every day!
And I know you’re all waiting for a juicy story about balls and sauce but that’s not going to happen today! Sometimes even the Dutchess has to settle for a quick one, but that’s better than nothing!! Now let’s get those balls rolling!

1 lbs. ground meat (not too lean)
1 egg
2 tablespoons of your favorite bbq sauce
1 tablespoon parsley, dried
A few drops of hot sauce
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon chipotle chile seasoning
1 spring onion, only the green part, thinly sliced
Pepper/salt
Panko (I used about 1 cup)
1 egg
2 tablespoons of your favorite bbq sauce
1 tablespoon parsley, dried
A few drops of hot sauce
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon chipotle chile seasoning
1 spring onion, only the green part, thinly sliced
Pepper/salt
Panko (I used about 1 cup)
Mix all these ingredients and make meatballs.
Then it’s time to get saucy!
1 thick slice of bacon (ooow homemade by The Dutchess herself!), cut into cubes
½ cup bourbon
¼ cup heavy cream
½ cup beef broth
Pepper
2 tablespoons of your favorite bbq sauce
Pepper/salt
Grated cheese
Butter
1 thick slice of bacon (ooow homemade by The Dutchess herself!), cut into cubes
½ cup bourbon
¼ cup heavy cream
½ cup beef broth
Pepper
2 tablespoons of your favorite bbq sauce

Grated cheese
Butter
This time I used the Burnt Finger BBQ Private Stock Barbecue Sauce in the sauce and in the meatballs, and it tasted great, again! The smoky taste was a good choice for this meal!
Start with melting the butter in a wide pan and cook the bacon until crisp.
Set the bacon aside but leave the grease in the pan.
Add some more butter and cook the meatballs for about 10 minutes.
Place the meatballs on a platter and add the bourbon, heavy cream, beef broth, pepper and bbq sauce to the grease. Let it boil for 1 minute.
Put the meatballs back in the pan, close the lid and let it simmer for about 15 minutes.
If the sauce hasn’t thickened enough now, you can add some sauce thickener. Sprinkle the cheese over the meatballs, close the lid and let it melt in about 5 minutes…
And this is the result: mouthwatering, and I tell you something, these meatballs would be great on a bun!! As all meatballs do… haha!
