Hi everyone welcome back to my kitchen and today, I have a really great recipe for you
I know I've made you meatballs in the past, but I made him in my slow cooker
And it's a super old video like 2010 today
I'm gonna show you how to make meatballs my way where I bake them in the oven and then I pop them in my pressure
cooker
With the sauce and I cook them for a little while and they taste like they've been slow-cooked all day
Let's go see how these quick slow cooked meatballs come together
All right, we're gonna make these meatballs now. I have a video. That's very very old. It's probably
from
2011
Maybe even earlier than that about how I make my meatballs in my slow cooker, but today
I'm gonna be making them in my pressure cooker in a similar fashion, but the pressure cooker takes like five minutes
Just to infuse the precooked meatballs with the delicious flavor of the sauce
So we're gonna go ahead and bake off our meatballs first
and
Then we're going to go ahead and stick them in the pressure cooker with our favorite
Pantry jar sauce and then we're going to enjoy dinner
I'm gonna be making some baked ravioli for dinner tonight
Because I am super busy so meals the next couple of weeks have to be really easy, and I'm sure that in your life
It's a similar situation because November and December are crazy for all of us and the best thing we can do is
Give ourselves the opportunity and the permission to take
Advantage of grocery store items to make semi-homemade dinner dinners to make everybody happy
So we're not going to you know out to eat all the time so what I have here is two pounds of 80/20 ground beef
that I got at the commissary, and I'm just gonna add a cup a
Bread crumb this is dry Italian seasoned bread crumb a half a cup of
Parmesan cheese, this is grated Parmesan and
I have a teaspoon each onion powder garlic powder
dried basil as well as two teaspoons of Italian seasoning and
Then we're gonna put a couple of eggs in here my rule is a pound for every pound of meat
You do one egg
And yes, I'm living on the edge, I didn't break my egg into another container
There we go
And you can see I have my gloves already ready to go because I don't want to mess with this meat with the
Without putting gloves on and you can totally when I make these for Christmas Eve dinner
I always make the meat mixture in my mixer
so keep that in mind if you're making a whole lot and
You're gonna make this in advance to freeze because these meatballs freeze great
And then you can pre cook them and then you can freeze them off
And then you'll have them portioned out for your meals ready to go
And you can do a lot of things with these meatballs, you can make meatball subs you can make
Spaghetti and meatballs on the fly you can make Swedish meatballs
It just depends on what kind of sauce you make sweet and sour meatballs you make cocktail meatballs for
appetizers and all of that good stuff
So I'm just gonna go ahead and get all this meat mixed together
With the bread crumb and all those other goodies in there. You just want to make sure everything's evenly distributed like you see here
There's a big
Honkin clod of bread crumb you don't want that alright now that my meat is mixed up. I have a baking sheet
I have it lined on the bottom with two
pieces of regular aluminum foil and then on the top with one piece of nonstick aluminum foil and
All I'm gonna do this is a number 24 Disher. It is a little bit smaller than 1/4 of a cup
You can use whatever size, Disher you want what I like to do is
just go ahead and scoop a
Whole bunch and then I'll go back and I'll roll them in my hands, and this time. I'm not actually going to
Put a pair of gloves on I'm just gonna wet my hands
And then we'll roll these up and get them ready to go in the oven I have my oven preheated at 375 degrees
And these are going to bake for about a half an hour, so I'm gonna get these portioned up
And I'll bring you back when these are ready to go in the oven alright
I've got them all rolled out except for these last four and I wet my hands just wet your hands
And then just go ahead and roll these until they're smooth and look like meatballs
I mean that's pretty easy and you can always wash your hands later
So I'm gonna bake these at 375 for about a half an hour
And then we'll bring you back and we'll pop these in the pressure cooker
And we will make some delicious Italian style meatballs our
Meatballs have come out of the oven they were in there for about a half an hour
You can see they're nice and brown
This is the only way I ever cook meatballs
Because they get done superfast and I don't have to stand at the stove and brown them and everything gets
Greasy, and this fat spits on you
this way it gets done in the oven and I love it this way so all we're gonna do now is take the meatballs and
One by one I'm just gonna take them with my tongs and put them in the sauce I have one
regular sized jar of pasta sauce my favorite brand and
This way you leave the majority of the fat on the pan
And I have to say this meat did not render that much fat
So that makes me happy and you can always you know you can dab these on a paper towel if you wanna
but I'm not gonna because you know fat equals flavor and there really is hardly any I wouldn't
There's not even though I'd say they're not even two tablespoons on this tray so now
the meatballs are nice and
Sturdy because they've been baked off. I did add a small can of mushrooms in here as well
Just because we like that alright now
I'm gonna put the lid on and we're just gonna set it if you have a electric pressure cooker you're gonna want to UM
set this according to your instructions, and I'm gonna put these on because
These are already cooked
I'm gonna set it on fresh vegetables, and then I'm gonna put them in for five minutes
That's gonna infuse the meatballs with that flavor of the sauce it's gonna heat up the sauce and it's gonna make it
Seem like you slow cooked these meatballs all day long
It's gonna make them nice and tender it's gonna make them taste like they've been sitting simmering all day
So this makes it super easy to make homemade slow cooked flavor meatballs in
Less than an hour for sure, so we'll be back when these are ready to come out our meatballs have done
They've come up to pressure. They've cooked for five minutes, and then they came down off pressure
I did release the pressure a little bit earlier
Then it came down off of natural pressure because I kind of did half-and-half. I let it sit for five minutes
After the beeper went off so then I and then I released the remaining pressure
And when you open those you always want to remember to open it away from me
And my ravioli is out of the oven and the meatballs are done
boom look
Meatballs that look like they have been slow-cooked all day, and they smell delicious
And so what I'm gonna. Do now is I'm gonna go fix a plate
And I'll be back and we'll show you what this looks like there. You have it
There is our dinner tonight baked ravioli
And this is just frozen ravioli that I put in a pan
layered it up with a small jar of our favorite pasta sauce and I stuck at any oven for a half an hour and
Then these are our meatballs that we just made and you see how tender they are and they are they're beautiful
Are you ready to taste this? What do you think?
We're hot
Mm-hmm
They seriously do taste like they've been cooked all day
Mmm. That's a great way to get slow-cooked flavor in a tiny little bit of time you can totally do this in an hour I
