Ingredients
•
1/2 cup honey
•
1/4 cup minced garlic
•
1/4 cup soy sauce
•
3 tablespoons onion powder
•
2 tablespoons garlic powder
•
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
•
3 pounds ground moose
•
2 tablespoons canola oil
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2
Stir together honey, garlic, and soy sauce in a small saucepan, then stir in onion, garlic, and chili powders. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and gently simmer for 15 minutes.
3
While the sauce is simmering, roll 2 tablespoons ground moose into a ball. Repeat to make remaining meatballs.
4
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook meatballs in batches until well browned and cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes per batch; drain well.
5
Transfer drained meatballs to a large baking dish. Pour in sauce and stir until meatballs are well coated.
6
Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs absorb some sauce and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 20 minutes.
