I've made these meatballs several times over the past few years and they are so delicious! This recipe says it makes about 40 meatballs, but I make mine smaller and get about 80 appetizer size meatballs. I bake without the sauce, then cool and pop them in the freezer for later use. When needed, I put the frozen meatballs and BBQ sauce in a crock pot on medium until cooked through. I use the whole amount of BBQ sauce for about half of the appetizer size meatballs.
