Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Cover a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent the meatballs from sticking.

- In a large bowl, combine ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and prepared honey BBQ sauce. Mix well until fully incorporated.
- Form small meatballs from the mixture and place them on the prepared baking tray.
- Bake the meatballs for about 12 minutes, flipping halfway at 6 minutes to brown evenly.
- Remove cooked meatballs and transfer to a large bowl.
- Pour BBQ Honey Sriracha sauce over meatballs and gently toss to coat evenly.
- Serve meatballs on plates or a platter as an appetizer with your favorite sides.
Notes
Feel free to adjust the spiciness by adding more or less Sriracha to the sauce. These meatballs also make a great party appetizer or game day snack.
