MOINK Ball, as in HOW TO?

[Sammy_Shuford]

I have the basic idea, but

Do you wrap the meatballs while frozen?

Use a rub?

Yeah, I need basic instructions!:roll::roll:

Hi Sammy,

Here's one thread that might help here...

Other than that, search all the threads using MOINK as a key word.

Hope that helps!

I made some the other day that my outlaws absolutely gushed over.

1. Thaw the meatballs.
2. Cut the bacon. I cut each piece into thirds. YMMV, depending on the size of your...balls.
3. (Optional) Spritz the meatballs to help the rub stick. (I used pineapple juice).
4. Put some rub in a bowl and roll the meatballs in the rub until coated.
5. Wrap a bacon slice around each one, pin with a toothpick.
6. Cook until the bacon is done.
7. EAT.

Step #7 above is the most important. Don't forget that one.

I don't wait for my balls to completely defrost.

Also - I lay the bacon out on my cutting board and dust with rub before wrapping my balls.

Just as long as one doesn't stain their balls with colored toothpicks - you really cannot mess them up.......unless the all beef meatballs are replaced with falafel.

As Arlin said with one minor adjustment: Pull the MOINKs off 5 to 10 minutes before being done, dunk in a 50 / 50 mixture of BBQ sauce & jelly then finish to set the sauce. For myself & a few others I use a habenero or jalapeno jelly - for the rest of the crowd, grape works well.

Dang I though MN winters were bad....

For my first few times I found peeking was important as my first balls were a little dry :roll:
