Ingredients

  • 2 Lbs Lean Ground Beef
  • 1/2 Cup Bread Crumbs
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1/4 Cup Whole Milk
  • 1 Package Taco Seasoning or 2 Tablespoons Homemade Seasoning
  • 6 ounces Colby Jack Cheese (cut into cubes)

Instructions

  • Mix beef, bread crumbs, eggs, milk and taco seasoning until just combined. Do not over mix.
  • Scoop out 4 tablespoons of beef mixture, flatten then place cheese cube into the center. Bring the edges together to form a ball. Ensure that the meatball is completely sealed.
  • Transfer meatballs to a greased rimmed baking sheet.
  • Freeze meatballs on baking sheet for 10-15 minutes to firm up.
  • Raise oven rack to top and preheat broiler on high.
  • Broil meatballs on high for 10-12 minutes or until cooked through. Some cheese may escape while broiling. (Tighter seals on the meatballs will prevent oozing)
