Jerk Beef Meatballs
Jerk chicken is a popular Jamaican dish, I love it but I wanted to have some fun. I used the seasoning differently with these jerk beef meatball subs.
Ingredients
Jerk meatballs:
- 1 lb Lean ground beef
- 1 medium Egg
- 1/4 cup Breadcrumbs
- 4 tbsp Dry jerk seasoning
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Sweet coleslaw:
- 1 cup Red or green cabbage chopped
- 3-4 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
Spicy mayo:
- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Hot sauce
Subs:
- French or Italian bread
Instructions
Making the meatballs:
- Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a bowl, mix together the ground beef, jerk seasoning, worcestershire sauce and egg. Mix everything together.
- Once everything is mixed together, take some of the mixture and roll into balls using your hands. You should have at least 20-22 meatballs.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until they have browned.
Making the coleslaw:
- In a bowl, combine the cabbage, mayo and sugar. Mix everything together and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. It can be used immediately but I recommend making this the night before.
Making the spicy mayo:
- In a separate mixing bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and the sauce until everything is mixed well together.
Assembly:
- Once the meatballs are done cooking, let them cool.
- Cut the sandwich half way through then add the meatballs, top with the spicy mayo and finally the coleslaw. Repeat and enjoy!
