Description

Imagine tender, juicy meatballs, each one a savory explosion of flavor, slow-cooked until they practically melt in your mouth. These aren't your average meatballs; crafted from ground sirloin, they offer a depth of flavor that's both comforting and satisfying. The richness of the sirloin provides a delightful base for the other ingredients, creating a truly memorable culinary experience.

But the magic doesn't stop there. Each meatball is lovingly swathed in strips of smoky bacon, adding a layer of crispy, salty goodness that perfectly complements the savory meat. As they slow-cook, the bacon renders its flavorful fat, infusing the meatballs with an irresistible smoky aroma and taste.

The bacon not only enhances the flavor but also helps to keep the meatballs incredibly moist and tender. The crowning glory of this dish is a luscious, creamy sauce. This isn't your typical tomato-based sauce; instead, it's a rich and decadent blend of cream, earthy mushrooms, and a hint of black pepper.

The mushrooms add a subtle umami flavor that deepens the overall taste profile, while the black pepper provides a gentle warmth that tingles on the tongue. The creaminess of the sauce coats the meatballs beautifully, creating a harmonious blend of textures and flavors that will leave you wanting more. The slow cooking process melds the flavors, creating a cohesive and well-balanced dish.

These bacon-wrapped meatballs are incredibly versatile. Serve them as a hearty appetizer at your next gathering, or enjoy them as a satisfying main course alongside a bed of creamy mashed potatoes or a simple side salad. They're also perfect for meal prepping, as they reheat beautifully and taste just as delicious the next day.

Whether you're looking for a comforting weeknight meal or an impressive dish to serve to guests, these slow-cooked meatballs are sure to be a hit. The combination of rich sirloin, smoky bacon, and creamy mushroom sauce creates a symphony of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds and leave you feeling completely satisfied.

Instructions

In a bowl, combine the ground sirloin, egg, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, caraway, and onion powder. Mix thoroughly with your hands or a spoon until well combined.

On a clean surface, form the mixture into approximately 13 meatballs, each weighing about 1 1/2 ounces.

Wrap each meatball with a single strip of bacon and secure it with a toothpick. Place the wrapped meatballs in a crock pot, arranging them in a single layer, with a few resting on top if necessary. Cook on high for 4 hours.

To prepare the sauce, melt butter in a large skillet over low heat. Mince garlic and stir it into the melted butter, allowing it to heat up for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Thinly slice the mushrooms and add them to the skillet. Cover with a lid and cook over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are softened.

Sprinkle paprika over the mushrooms and stir until they are completely coated. Then, stir in the heavy cream.

Cover the skillet and heat the cream until it simmers. Then, pour in the beef broth and add the remaining spices.

Bring the sauce to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook uncovered for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Finally, turn off the heat and stir in the sour cream to fully combine the sauce. To serve, use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon-wrapped meatballs from the crock pot, remove the toothpicks, and serve the hot mushroom sauce over the meatballs. Enjoy!
