I have made this recipe multiple times and have never had a problem with it! They have always turned out juicy and delicious for me.

I'm not sure what happened for the others who've made these. I've been asked for the recipe whenever I've made them. I make main dish serving sized balls and instead of blending the pineapple together with other sauce ingredients, I leave it chunky and pour it over the balls. I also add a generous dash of ground cloves to the sauce.

This was the worst garbage recipe I ever tried to cook. The recipe was so bad I had to throw the whole pan of cooked meatballs out.This was not for human consumption. I wasted good money to have my butcher grind the ham and pork together for me. The meat cost almost $10.00 alone and then the other ingredients were costly.I am a GOOD COOK and followed this recipe to a tee and it was absolute hunks of junk and the smell was sickening.Don't waste your good money trying to make this mess it is the worst I have even seen.
