Description

Tender, juicy meatballs smothered in a rich, savory Guinness gravy – the ultimate crowd-pleasing appetizer! These Guinness Gravy Meatballs are easy to make and packed with bold, irresistible flavor.


Ingredients

– 1 lb ground beef

– 1/2 cup breadcrumbs

– 1/4 cup milk

– 1 egg

– 1 tsp garlic powder

– 1 tsp onion powder

– 1 tsp dried parsley

– 1/2 tsp salt

– 1/4 tsp black pepper

– 2 tbsp olive oil

– 1 onion, diced

– 3 cloves garlic, minced

– 2 cups Guinness beer

– 2 cups beef broth

– 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

– 2 tbsp Dijon mustard

– 2 tbsp cornstarch

– 2 tbsp water

– Fresh parsley, for garnish


Instructions

1. 1. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well until fully incorporated.

2. 2. Roll the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.

3. 3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the meatballs to a plate.

4. 4. In the same skillet, sauté the onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.

5. 5. Pour in the Guinness beer and beef broth. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

6. 6. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the simmering gravy, whisking continuously, until the gravy thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

7. 7. Reduce the heat to low, add the meatballs back to the skillet, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.

8. 8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
