What kind on meatballs are you all using for your MOINK balls?

All the ones I could find were allready cooked. I was afraid since they were cooked, they wouldn't take any smoke. So I made mine from scratch. Easy recipe:

1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground pork
1 cup crushed saltine crackers
2 eggs
4 tsp BBQ rub (I looked up a meatball recipe and added the total amount of spices and substituted my BBQ rub)

Worked well

They look real good. I've only made them once and I used precooked frozen Italian meatballs.
 
From the reading I did prior to my maiden attempt today I think most everybody uses the frozen pre-cooked ones. By the way your balls look great. Oh my...:shock:
 
Your Moink Balls look great. How many did you get out of the recipe? Think you could use a pound of sausage instead of ground pork?

I got about 20, but could have gotten 30 if I made them smaller. Mine were a little big for an appetizer.

Don't know why you couldn't use sausage.
 
Official MOINK Balls are made using pre-cooked Italian style meatballs.

You can use anything else you'd like but THE officially licensed MOINK Ball is done one way and one way only.

BTW: Your imitation moink balls look very nice...

I am pretty sure that they are banned from import into NY. Us using them would be like a Southerner making instant grits or pre made biscuits


I will take Mama Valentine's imitations anyday

I understand.

But you can't roast a chicken and call it a turkey just because you don't like turkey...
 
Sounds like Larry, the inventor of Moink is threatened by the use of fresh balls. :cool:
 
Now Larry, to be fair, if that girl confused the cow and the pig, then technically ground pork might be allowed because it's really ground beef because the cow you thought was a pig wasn't.

MOINK is delicious.
 
What if the sausage had both beef and pork in it? Would you even need the bacon for it to be a Moink ball?

Don't be dissing Ginger the waitress. She'd been in the hospital and lost her car, so it was understandable that she though baby back ribs came from a cow. I mean, how could you guestion a waitress at the #1 rated KC BBQ restaurant.
