Method

Meatball Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Mix meatball ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Form meatballs

    Using your hands, form the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  4. 4

    Bake meatballs

    Bake the meatballs in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are cooked through and browned.

Buffalo Sauce Preparation

  1. 5

    Melt butter

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.

  2. 6

    Combine sauce ingredients

    Once melted, add the hot sauce, garlic powder, and salt to the saucepan. Stir to combine and let simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Serving

  1. 7

    Coat meatballs

    Once the meatballs are done baking, remove them from the oven and place them in a large bowl.

  2. 8

    Add buffalo sauce

    Pour the buffalo sauce over the meatballs and toss gently to coat them evenly.

  3. 9

    Serve

    Transfer the buffalo-coated meatballs to a serving platter. Top with crumbled bleu cheese and chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
