http://bsugarmama.com/buffalo-chicken-balls/. Here's my idea on this, wrap it in bacon, treat it like a Moink Ball. Sound good?

    These actually don't look to bad at all.  Do a 50/50 batch.  50% like the recipe directs, and 50% in the bacon wrap and see which way turns out better.  I would bet it wouldn't be bad with ground turkey either.

    I don't normally buy ground chicken or turkey.  does anyone know what it is made from?
    Is it typically ground breast meat?
    As i would prefer to make them out of ground thigh meat.

    And to go one step further than wrapped in bacon and smoked.

    first stuff it in a mushroom cap, then wrap in bacon and smoke.

    I'm thinking no added wing sauce in the meatball, sprinkle the bacon wrapped chicken ball with DP Swamp Venom, and add wing sauce at the end.  If they come out too hot, have blue cheese dressing for dipping.

    I'm with @Zmokin, I don't normally buy ground birds, but I did just get 10 whole birds, so I may end up making some of my own ground bird.

    I think you could take this a lot of ways.  I pulled the recipe into my "To Try" file for down the road.  Don't know if I'm going to get anything done for NYE.
