Game Day Recipes
It’s playoff football time which means gathering with family and friends to watch the games! We start this week with three recipes we enjoy (Meatballs, Queso Dip and Nachos) and will continue with more in the weeks to come. We hope you enjoy these recipes as much as we do!
Cocktail Meatballs
· 1 LB of Italian Sausage (Loose)
· 1 LB of Ground Chuck
· 3 TBS of Killer Hogs AP Seasoning
· 1 TBS of Lane’s BBQ Garlic Seasoning
· 3/4 Cup of Panko Bread Crumbs
· 1 Jar of Chili Sauce
· 1 Cup of Grape Jelly
· 1 Egg
· 2 TSP Worcestershire Sauce
· 3 TBS of Italian Seasoning
· 1/2 of an Onion Chopped
Set your Pellet Smoker to 350 degrees to preheat. Add all ingredients with the exception of the Chili Sauce and Jelly into the bowl and mix thoroughly. Spray down a wire rack with nonstick cooking spray.
Begin rolling out the meatballs into the size of a golf ball, about a heaping TBS. Place them on the rack leaving plenty of room in between each meatball, continue rolling until all of the mixture is used. Place on the preheated smoker for 1 hour and check for temperature. Once the desired temp is reached, place all meatballs into a crockpot. In a sauce pan, mix the Chili Sauce and Jelly heat to dissolve, do not boil. Once completely dissolved, pour the mixture over the meatballs with the crockpot setting on low.
Serve with toothpicks!
Smoked Queso
· 2 LB Block of Velveeta (Cubed)
· 8 Ounces of Smoked Gouda (Cubed)
· 2 Cans of Rotel, One Mild and One Fire Roasted
· 1 LB of Italian Sausage (Browned and Drained)
· 2 TBS of ReqTeq Rossarooski’s Rub
· 1 Can of Cream of Mushroom Soup
Place your Dutch oven in the smoker to preheat. In the Dutch oven, brown and drain the Italian sausage.
Add all of the remaining ingredients to the Dutch oven and stir continuously. Once the cheese is completed melted and all ingredients are incorporated (about 45 mins) remove from heat and serve with corn chips!
Nachos
We enjoy nachos a lot in our house and this recipe is quick and easy. We like it because we can feed a crowd and most everyone enjoys them.
· 1 Cup of Shredded Lettuce
· 2 Cups of your favorite Pulled Pork
· 1/4 Cup of Black Olives
· 1/4 Cup of Black Beans
· 1/4 Cup of Jalapenos Sliced
· 1/4 Cup of Diced Fresh Tomatoes
· 1/4 Cup of Salsa
· 1/4 Cup of Shredded Cheese
· 3/4 Cup of the Queso Recipe (Above)
· 4 Cups of tortilla chips
We set our smoker at 275 degrees. For simplicity purposes, we use a medium pizza pan to build our nachos. With this recipe you can use as little or as much of the ingredients above as you like. You can also substitute ingredients, make it your own! Place the chips on the pan, add the pork, shredded cheese and beans on the chips. Place the pan on the smoker until heated and the cheese is melted. Remove from heat. Add the lettuce, olives, jalapenos, tomatoes and salsa. Top with the Smoked Queso and serve immediately.
