Barbecued Meatballs

1 egg lightly beaten
1 (5 oz) can evaporated milk
1 c. quick-cooking oats
1/2 c. finely chopped onion
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 lbs. ground beef

In a bowl, combine all ingredients except beef. After ingredients are mixed well, crumble beef over mixtrue and mix again. Shape into little 1 inch balls (I use a little cookie dough scoop). Place in a greased 9x13 pan. Bake uncovered at 350 for about 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven. If there is any excess grease after cooking, drain it off...

SAUCE:

1 c. Ketchup
3/4 c. packed brown sugar
1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Pour over cooked meatballs. Bake in oven again at 350 for another 12 minutes.

Note: I got this recipe from Good Things Utah. It's soooo easy, I can make it in my sleep. It's wonderful with sticky white rice. Sometimes I double the sauce recipe but you don't need to - it makes a lot of sauce.
