How To Make sloppy joe meatballs

  • Step 1
    For the meatballs Add the olive oil to a large Dutch oven. Saute the onions and garlic until the onions are translucent. Scoop out half of the onion mixture and place in a large bowl. Leave the remaining onion mixture in the pan. Set the pan aside off the heat.
  • Step 2
    Preheat oven 350 degrees. Mix the onion mixture with the remaining ingredients for the meatballs. Mix it well with your hands. Roll 1 to 2 inch meatballs and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Step 3
    While meatballs are baking add the tomatoes to the onion mixture in the Dutch oven. Place over medium high heat. Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes letting it reduce and thicken. Taste and adjust for salt and pepper. Serve the sauce over the meatballs.
