  • We cube it and serve with crackers when tailgating. There's no wrong way. I may have eaten it cold out of the fridge once or twice maybe.

    Roughly an hour depending on how big you made it. It also cooks a tad slower in a pan. With that said, I still prefer using a pan.

    Due to its relatively short cook time, start checking it around 45 minutes to get an idea of where you are at.

    @SGH - Thanks for this recipe. Did not have green onion so I used a large shallot and a whole red pepper instead of the 1/4 you mentioned in a later post. You are right about the flavor and the grease. I had put holes in the bottom of the aluminum pan and captured grease in a drip pan but there was still a lot left in the pan. Made this last evening and served with Jasmine rice. Wow. Will do this again.

    Yours looks excellent my friend. Glad that you liked it. It’s one of those things that are so simple and yet spectacular. It is honestly one of our very favorites.

    Looks good.  Hmmm.  I wonder how well this would work with turkey or chicken sausage.  Probably not enough fat.  Duck sausage?

    I have tried it with turkey and did not care for it at all. This is one of those times the more fat the better👍

    Good to know.  I'll figure out how to add some fat and give it a try.  Should be interesting.

    After seeing this thread pop back up it reminded just how much I enjoy this dish. Had to go ahead make a batch of it topped with pineapple head and chives.

    I bet this concoction would make for some pretty good meatballs.

    I have never tried it. It has a very good stand alone taste so I do not know if it would compliment spaghetti or pasta. However it would no doubt make excellent meatballs that you were simply serving as appetizers. I may throw a few in the next spaghetti that I make and see how it is.

    Please keep us posted my friend.  I am betting they will be the very best meatballs you will ever eat.
