Ingredients

Meat Mixture

• 1 large egg
• 1 envelope onion soup mix
• 1 pound ground beef

Cheese

• 1 cup Dan and Debbie’s Creamery white cheddar cheese curds

Coating

• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup crushed saltines, about 30 crackers
• 4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

Frying

• 5 tablespoons canola oil

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine egg and soup mix. Crumble ground beef over mixture and mix well. Divide into 14-16 portions.
2. Add cheese curds to the center of each meatball making sure it is completely inside and covered with meat. Reshape into a ball.
3. In a shallow bowl, beat eggs for coating. Place cracker crumbs and crumbled bacon in another bowl. Dip meatballs into eggs, then coat with bacon crumbs.
4. Heat oil in a large cast-iron over medium heat. Cook meatballs until meat is no longer pink and outside is golden brown, 10 12 minutes. Flip meatballs over often so each side browns.
