Turkey Meatballs

I grilled up a bunch of Turkey Meatballs tonight that turned out really great!

We did the first 1/2 with some salt & pepper and hit them with the RunninWild Peach Rub.

The second batch were patted together with garlic, ginger, onions, orange peppers and very finely chopped mushrooms. Those needed some bread crumbs to keep them together....but you couldn't tell that in the final product at all. I basted them with a teriyaki sauce when they were almost finished cooking.

I grilled them direct - with no added wood - at 350* for about 15 minutes. 

The ones just over a hot spot got a touch burned on the bottom - but 90% of them were perfect. 

We served them with a Spinach Salad and paired the dish with a 2002 Burgundy (Pinot Noir)

Cheers!

    They look great as does that burgundy!  The "burned" ones are my wife's favorites!  Great job!

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    That's a creative way to make those into a light dinner. I like that.
