These tasty little Bourbon Meatballs will be the hit of your next mixed drink party ~ individuals will run to the meatballs, however they'll stay nearby for the sauce!!
I need to admit, in spite of the fact that these Bourbon Cocktail Meatballs are obviously intended to be canapés, in our family we similarly as regularly make a feast out of them. The previous evening we had them with pureed potatoes and peas ~ so great! The meatballs themselves are damp and delicate in light of the fact that I utilize a blend of ground hamburger and ground pork. The pork gives the meatballs extraordinary flavor, yet in addition shields them from being thick. I help them up significantly more with my preferred mystery fixing, Ritz saltine scraps!
The sauce for these meatballs is really darned stunning, on the off chance that I do say so myself. It's thick and lustrous, with a strong portion of whiskey. It's likewise got that great mixed drink meatball combo of sweet and tart, because of apricot jam and grill sauce. Gracious, and there's a trace of warmth from sriracha. Simply composing those fixings has my mouth watering.

Instructions
