These meatballs are really quite tasty! This is a recipe I had marked to try when it first appeared in the magazine, but somehow never got around to doing so until recently (probably because I kept forgetting to buy the horseradish--lol). I will admit to having had concerns about the amount of allspice---it seemed like a lot, so I started with half as much of it as I made the sauce, then kept adding until I was at the 1 1/2 teaspoons. I would recommend doing this, as personal tastes vary. I also recommend making these the day before you need them. I tasted one shortly after cooking them, and I had some doubt, so I refrigerated them and they were so much better the next evening. I think the flavors needed to mellow. I'm not sure how to accurately describe the glaze, as it is different---similar to a barbecue sauce, but without the acid "whang" of some BBQ sauces. I served this recipe with home made scalloped potatoes and steamed corn. I also added a little Mrs. Dash to the meatball mixture. Everyone in the family gave this a "thumbs up". I will make these again.
