I got this recipe from my mother. We always have it at parties. The fondue is a thick, rich, tomato-type fondue. There is no cheese in it and it doesn't need it. The meatballs soak up some of the sauce to make it super yummy! It's always a hit for us, so I thought I'd share.
Ingredients
- 1 bottle ketchup , 32 ounce
- 1 can or bottle beer , 12 fluid ounce
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 bays leaves
- 1.5 pounds 80% lean ground beef
Instructions
-
1
Mix ketchup, beer, Worcestershire sauce, and bay leaves together in a slow cooker (such as Crock-Pot®) set over High.
-
2
Form ground beef into meatballs. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook meatballs, turning as needed, until browned, about 7 minutes.
-
3
Place meatballs in the slow cooker. Cook on High until sauce is thick, about 5 hours. Remove bay leaves before serving.

Dairy-Free Savory Sausage Gravy
This dairy-free sausage gravy is a fairly basic, large-batch gravy recipe that I've developed over time. The family loves it every time, so the large batch is needed! Normally I'd use soy milk for most things, but I've found that in greater quantities it tends to froth badly. Almond milk does not have this problem though. Serve over warmed biscuits or the toasted bread of your choice.
Ice Box Fruitcake
