MEATBALLS:

2-3 lbs. of ground chuck (or very lean hamburger)
1 tbsp. lemon juice
2 eggs
1 c. cooked rice
1 1/2 c. fine bread crumbs
1 tbsp. chopped onion, fine
1 1/2 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. brown sugar

SAUCE:

1 1/2 c. grape (or blackberry) jelly
1 1/2 c. ketchup
1 tbsp. lemon juice

Combine meatball ingredients. Form into balls about the size of a golf ball. Fry (turning frequently) or bake until done. Put into large casserole or baking pan.

Combine ingredients for sauce. Simmer over low heat until jelly melts. (Or put in microwave and stir frequently). Pour sauce over meatballs. Can serve immediately or put in oven for 15-20 minutes. Freezes well.

Can also add hot dogs cut in 1/4's or sausages and pour sauce over to make larger amount of meat and add variety.
