Directions
Setup grill/smoker - on grill place chunks/coals on one side - heat to around 275-300
In a bowl add ground beef, diced onions, egg, panko breadcrumbs, and 2 tbsp Lane’s Spellbound Rub
Mix all together and make meatballs about 2 inches diameter or to the size you like.
Wrap each meatball with bacon using a toothpick to keep together.
Season bacon wrapped meatballs with Lane’s Spellbound rub
Optional place a handful of cherry chips over chunks/coals when you are ready to place meatballs on.
Place meatballs on the side of the grill without the coals for indirect firing. If using a ceramic just place the meatballs on grate.
Cook for about 30-45 minutes or until internal temp reaches 150
While meatballs are cooking - In a small pot heat 4.5 oz Wishams Strawlapeno jelly and 8 oz Lane’s Lil Spicy until all one consistency.
Pull meatballs and place in a foil pan or steamer pan and pour over sauce mixture And place back on for 10 to 15 minutes. Ending internal temperature should be 155
Recipe Note
Pro Tip:
Crock Pot - I would consider chopping up the bacon and mixing it in with the Meatball or removing the bacon all together.
removing the bacon kinda misses the point, don’t ya think? and bacon on the outside gets cooked just right.
