My smoked pot roast for tonight's dinner was lonley...

macsinsac First, I love that we get to see the grill being used to such an extent! Also, you ground up tri-tip and Italian sausage (was it already loose) to make meatballs? I’ve never made meatballs from already made sausage but now Im pretty sure i will be!

Jonathon I always mix Italian “hot” sausage into my meat base. I will often include a portion of ground lamb or Chorizo as well! That all looks great macsinsac ! I’m definitely making meatballs this week!

[Jonathon]

I’m all for adding Chorizo to any kind of meat! I love that stuff and I can imagine how good it would be with meatballs!

Jonathon I couldn’t stand it any longer! I just ran to the store and picked up Italian sausage and chorizo!

[Jonathon]

Joe Hell I look forward to the results of you playing around with this! Obviously, please take pics and share!

Jonathon I almost picked up some ground lamb but at $8.99/lb…no way. Hopefully I have some buried in the freezer!

Jonathon I’m finding another use for a batch that I made with a picnic instead of a butt. Too much connective tissue for the coarse grind I used & I didn’t want to trash it, so meatballs it is. Second round doing it 2 lbs at a time.

Joe Hell thanks. I just got a new set of 3 scoops & thought it was a perfect time to try out the meatball size. Man it saves time.

macsinsac I try to make even portions as often as possible for diet purposes. I’ll use a scale or scoop often. Meatballs and sausages are super easy to keep track of and ration calories that way!
