BBQ Moink Balls
Moink balls are sure conversation starters that are tasty and fun to make during your parties. The “moo” comes from the beef ball and the “oink” comes from the bacon. To make it easier on yourself, get a bag of cooked frozen beef balls. Of all the meatballs I’ve tested, the best one for moink balls is a $5.00 bag from Walmart. Look for the Great Value package of meatballs in the Walmart frozen section. While you’re there, get two packs of Great Value thin bacon and a pack of toothpicks.
