Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cup peach preserves
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1/2 cup chili sauce
  • 1/2 cup whiskey or bourbon
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Dash of hot sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix the ingredients together until just combined.
  3. Roll the meatball mixture into 1-inch balls and place them on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through and lightly browned on the outside.
  4. In a large saucepan or slow cooker, whisk together the peach preserves, BBQ sauce, chili sauce, whiskey, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder. Add a dash of hot sauce if desired.
  5. Bring the sauce mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the flavors have melded and the sauce is smooth.
  6. Once the meatballs have finished baking, gently add them to the simmering sauce and stir to coat them evenly. If using a slow cooker, cover and cook on low for 2 to 3 hours or on high for 1 to 2 hours. For stovetop, let them simmer in the sauce for 15 to 20 minutes.

Notes

Serve as an appetizer with toothpicks or over rice or pasta. For a fun option, nestle them into slider buns.
