    We've served Bourbon Meatballs at Eggfests for years, along with a few other items.  Tasters like them and often come back for seconds.  We serve ours with pretzel sticks.  Just don't stick the stick in too soon - they dissolve.  But we get a lot of comments about both the meatballs and the pretzel sticks.

    Yours look great.

    Nothing.  Didn't even know about ya until this thread!  Probably counter productive to your brand to recommend another while I wait for yours to arrive! :lol: Clump Free I hope!  :lol:

    I have to say, I have not tried these meatballs yet, however, I used the rub on a Tri Tip last night and it was absolutely fabulous!  I highly recommend grabbing some of this rub even if you don't plan on doing the meatballs!!  Really good stuff!!!
    Good good stuff @Nuke1855
