1 medium sweet onion
1 glass bottle Heineken
4 T Bacon Salt
2 T Parsley
1 T Black Pepper
1 T Hamburger Seasoning
1tsp Garlic Powder
2 T Minced Onion
Place thawed ground chuck into a large bowl. Add everything but the sweet onion and beer. Mix together well by hand, squishing the ingredients into the meat. Pour beer into a large (12") skillet on medium heat, cover. Make approx 12 meatballs from the mixture and place carefully into the boiling beer. Top with sliced onions. Boil 5 minutes with lid on, reduce heat to simmering for 30 minutes. Cut off heat. Meatballs are ready to serve, but I went the extra step to make a gravy out of the sauce left in the skillet by adding cornstarch to the drippings. The beer will settle to the top, so pour it off (or leave it if you wish) and pour over meatballs and mashed potatoes.
I called it "Ghetto-Fabulous Beer-Boiled Tear-Jerker Meat-Balls." The onions did a number on my eyes as I was slicing. But it was marvelous! Hubby was happy, toddler loved it, and I did, too.
