Cream Cheese Filled Moinks!
« Reply #-1 on: February 04, 2013, 12:38:36 PM »
This was one of the things we cooked up for game day. Nothing fancy or difficult; just a twist on Moink Balls. But they ended up taking center stage.


Cream Cheese Filled Moink Balls

I mixed up 3 pounds of meat balls: 2 lbs ground beef, 1 lb ground pork, salt, pepper, onion, garlic & parsley.
You can use your favorite meatball mix

Stuffed some cream cheese in each (sorry for the blurry pic).


Wrapped each in bacon


Onto the MAK at 400° until done.






These will definitely get a repeat performance at our house!

Thanks for looking.

That looks great. Try blue if you like it next time. Just something a little different.
Love to cook and eat

There is one more thing I want to add to these when I make some.....

I typically finish my moinks witha a nice drizzle of a sweet/hot finishing sauce made from fine strained blackberry preserves, apple cider vinegar, and some jalepeno powder ...

The sweet heat, as a contrast against the savory meaty moink ( now with cream cheese! Thanks to Cliff!) should be awesome. ;) :)

I actually thought about doing something similar, but time was a little short.  I love that sweet-heat combo. Apricot & red pepper is really nice.

Here's another idea we did once: You know those crock-pot meatballs with the Grape Jelly & chili sauce?  Try mixing some grape jelly with BBQ sauce and add a little heat and put the cooked moinks in that - YUM!!!

I'm gonna try both ways - and different cheese types. Thanks for the inspiration!
