I made this for Thanksgiving and my family loved it. -
I LOVE these meatballs! I was looking for a change from my regular BBQ meatballs and these were great. I did forget the wooster but they were so good I think I'll forget it again. I may do a little less bourbon, not everybody loves it like I do (hic!). Thanks for a great recipe. Since originally posting this I have made these almost every time we have dinner company. We recently had no bourbon so I used Maple Crown Royal - it was great! We have done the sauce on cocktail weenies too. -
I've been making these for our holiday party for 5 years now. Always a hit! I use these sauce ingredients with the 96oz. Cost Co. bag of Italian meatballs and that proportion is about right. -
I've made these numerous times...always a hit! I use the frozen Italian Meatballs, not quite that much Bourbon. Last time I made - didn't have Bourbon - substituted Red Wine - I think they were better :)

I was born and raised in Iowa but married my penpal of 8 years who was a Ky boy. We've been married 32 years. He's retired from the VA Hospital and I am no longer working outside the home because of health problems.
I stil love to read, just can't do it as well because of retinopathy in my eyes. I really feel like its been forever since I was last on this site. Looking forward to seeing how many of you I remember and vice versa.
P.S. My soul mate passed away from cancer on Nov 19, 2007. His was a short battle, but a courageous one. He was always my biggest fan, especially if I made peanut butter cookies.
I miss him lots, but know he's not hurting anymore. I think he would be proud of the fact that I've been able to go on, and I'm still doing some of the things we liked doing together.
I would like to remind everyone to tell the people you love, how much you love them everyday, because you just never know when they'll be gone.
