Swedish Cocktail Meatballs

This is grandma finally posting a recipe on the blog (okay it's not really Grandma, but Shara helping her post this). She got this recipe from her friend Sarah Beus. They are delicious - not kidding, she served me one today.

Swedish Cocktail Meatballs

1 1/2 lb. ground beed
1/2 c. bread crumbs
1/2 c. minced onion
1/2 c. milk
1/3 c. brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. snipped parsley
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/2 ts. Worcestershire Sauce

Mix above ingredients and shap into 1 inch balls. Brown meat balls in 1/2 cup oil in large skillet, drain well.

Sauce
1-12 ounce bottle Heinz chili sauce.
1 - 10 ounce bottle grape jelly.

In sauce pan combine chili sauce and grape jelly. Add meatballs to sauce and simmer for 30 minutes, serve hot.

Now, Sarah serves these as appetizers so there is not enough sauce for a main dish. Grandma doubled the sauce recipe, but when doubling the grape jelly she added the whole 32 ounch jar of grape jelly. It turned out perfectly. They served it over rice.
