Ingredients

2 large eggs
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1-1/2 pounds lean ground beef (90% lean)
1/2 pound ground pork or turkey

1 small onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup chili sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon ground mustard

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Combine first six ingredients. Add beef and pork; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into 1-1/2-in. balls. Place on a greased rack in a 15x10x1-in. pan. Bake until a thermometer reads 160° (165° if using ground turkey), 35-40 minutes.
